Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a delightful breed of dog known for their active demeanor and distinctive appearance. These dogs are often seen with long, floppy ears and a curved body. Dachshunds come in three distinct coat types – wirehaired, longhaired, and smooth-haired – and plenty of eye-catching colors. They are also loyal and protective, making them great family companions. Dachshunds may also be suitable for those with allergies, since they don't shed as much as other breeds.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. Generally, no dog breed is truly hypoallergenic. Each person's allergies are different, and their reaction to different breeds and animals may vary. In addition, even if a breed of dog is not categorized as highly allergenic, the individual dog's nutrition, environment, and genetics may also impact how allergic a person may be. If you are looking for a low-allergen pet, it may be worthwhile to speak with your doctor and research certain breeds that may be more suitable for your allergies.
Dachshunds should not be fed table scraps, as many foods prepared for humans are often high in fat or salty and can lead to stomach issues for your pup. Fruits and vegetables such as apples, grapes, onions, avocados, and garlic are also not appropriate for your dog and can cause both stomach and allergy issues. Additionally, Dachshunds are prone to obesity, so try to avoid overfeeding them. Stick to a healthy diet from a trusted pet food producer and avoid feeding your pup bones and rawhide.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund takes time and effort, but it will be worth it! Firstly, learn as much as you can about your pup’s breed—consult books, talk to breeders and experienced dog owners, read reputable online resources, and even watch videos to get a better understanding of your pup’s needs.
Dachshunds come in three sizes determined by their weight: standard, miniature, and kaninchen (or “rabbit”). Standard size Dachshunds typically weigh between 16-32 pounds, while miniature size measure up to 11 pounds. Kaninchen is the smallest of the three sizes, with adults typically ranging from 8 to 11 pounds. Additionally, the length of a Dachshund's body is typically twice as long as their height when standing on all fours.
You can indeed take your Dachshund out for a run, but it is important to keep in mind that the breed is typically better suited to short runs or walks. Dachshunds have shorter legs and a longer back which makes them prone to joint and back problems if they run for extended periods of time, so it is important to understand your dog's limits in order to keep him or her healthy. Before taking your Dachshund for a run, invest in a good quality, form-fitting harness that redistributes their body weight to minimize pressure on their spine and joints.
Dachshunds make great family dogs because of their friendly personalities and loyal nature. They are intelligent and can easily be trained to become a much-loved member of the family. They tend to be affectionate towards their owners and bond well with children, making them the ideal family dog. Dachshunds are also small and do not require as much exercise as some larger breeds. They enjoy playing and interacting with their people, so they are perfect for people who want an active family dog who can be easily included in all the family activities.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are known to be very intelligent and loyal companion dogs. They have a good memory and aptitude for learning new tricks, making them great assets to any family. They are even known for being able to learn commands and behaviors faster than most dog breeds. Their exceptional intelligence makes them a popular choice for agility trials and other competitive dog sports. Dachshunds are also known for being independent and determined, making them a challenge to train, but ultimately extremely rewarding.
