Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are small but feisty pups known for their sausageshaped, elongated bodies and short legs. Here are some fun facts about them: Dachshunds were bred to hunt down badgers and other small animals in Germany, and were cherished by royalty due to their strength and size. After World War II, the breed became popular in the US and is now the sixth most popular breed in the United States according to the American Kennel Club.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds starts with selecting a pup with low or non-shedding fur. Additionally, it's important to create an allergen-free environment in your home by following a few key steps. First, vacuum carpets, furniture, and other surfaces regularly, ideally with a HEPA filter. Second, wash bedding and other fabrics in hot water at least once a week. Third, limit stuffed toys and other items that can trap allergens.
Dachshunds, like any other breed of dog, should be fed a diet of food specifically designed to meet the nutritional requirements of their breed and life stage. Foods that should be avoided include table scraps, fatty or greasy foods, chocolate, onions, grapes and raisins, macadamia nuts, and anything containing artificial sweeteners, as these can all cause digestive and health issues.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund can be an exciting process! It is important to make sure your home is a safe and comfortable space. First, provide your pet with plenty of toys and an elevated bed. Make sure your floors are covered with non-skid rugs and that any cabinets or doors that could potentially be hazardous to your pup are kept closed. Additionally, be sure to baby-proof your residence by hiding electric cables and covering any sharp corners.
Dachshunds come in a variety of sizes, ranging from miniature to standard size. Miniature Dachshunds range from 8-11 inches tall and 5-11 pounds; standard Dachshunds range from 8-9 inches tall and 16-32 pounds. Some Dachshunds may be even larger. Generally, males are larger than females and also tend to have a longer body. It's important to note that Dachshunds are considered adult dogs after one year of age, but they may still continue to grow after that.
Dachshunds are a unique breed with varied preferences, but many enjoy swimming and submerging in water. In particular, those descended from the retriever line tend to be better swimmers. However, with proper training and a lot of patience, all Dachshunds can learn how to enjoy the water. Some precautions should be taken before allowing your Dachshund to swim. Make sure the water is not too deep and the temperature is appropriate the cooler the better.
Dachshunds make wonderful family pets! They are loyal, affectionate, and have a playful spirit making them an ideal companion for families with children. Dachshunds are also generally easy to take care of and require moderate exercise, making them an ideal pet for people with busy schedules or limited living space. Dachshunds can also adapt to a variety of environments and are trainable with positive reinforcement. As with all breeds, socialize and train your pup early so they get used to different people, animals, and situations.
Dachshunds have a long reputation of being intelligent, loyal, and determined dogs. Studies have shown that Dachshunds can learn basic commands like sit, stay, and come more quickly than other breeds. Owners have also noted that Dachshunds are easily trained, able to understand complex commands like 'clean up your toys' or 'bark when the postman comes'. They can also easily master puzzles and obstacle courses, showing off their problem solving skills and capability to learn something new.
