Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are small-breed dogs that are incredibly loyal, full of energy, and often quite stubborn. They are typically loving and fun-loving, so they make excellent pets and companions. Dachshunds have a long, narrow body and short legs, making them excellent in tight spaces. Their short coat requires minimal grooming and they usually don't shed too much. They usually weigh around 16-32 lbs and range from 8 to 9 inches tall.
It is impossible to definitively answer whether Dachshunds will cause you to have allergies as it varies from person to person. Some breeds, such as Dachshunds, may be more likely to trigger allergies than others due to the amount of dander they produce or other triggers specific to a breed. It is always recommended to spend time around the breed in question to assess if you have a reaction. Additionally, allergists can perform a skin test to specifically determine which allergens are triggering your allergic reactions.
Dachshunds should not be fed chocolate or other foods containing cocoa, as it is a toxic substance that can cause severe illnesses or even death. Grapes, raisins, and other fruits with pits should be avoided, as these can lead to choking and other intestinal obstructions. Similarly, fatty foods like bacon, sausage, or table scraps should be off limits, as they are too hard to digest and can lead to gastric intestinal upset or pancreatitis. Dachshunds should also avoid bones from any type of animal, as these can cause choking or blockages.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund is possible with a little commitment and dedication. The best way to start is to give your puppy plenty of love and attention, ensuring they get all of the necessary socialization they need in order to develop confidence and become your loyal companion. Additionally, take the necessary steps to educate yourself on its breed needs, including proper health care, nutrition and grooming.
Dachshunds grow to be quite variable in size, depending on the particular breed and crossbreed. Generally, they range between 8 to 11 inches tall at the shoulder and may weigh anywhere from 8 to 32 pounds. However, depending on the mix, some may be larger or smaller than these basic ranges. It's best to get an estimate from the breeder, and discuss all your puppy's growth-related needs before bringing it home.
The amount of exercise a Dachshund requires depends on the individual dog. Generally speaking, these active little dogs need 30 minutes per day of brisk walks or runs, plus some play time. Additionally, Dachshunds enjoy interesting things to do with their owners and mental stimulation games, such as hide-and-seek, bring their favorite toy back to you and tag. It's important to provide your Dachshund with exercise that stimulates their mind and body, regardless of the amount of time spent.
Dachshunds generally get along well with other pets when introduced correctly. They have an outgoing and friendly personality, which typically allows them to become comfortable in the presence of other animals in the home. If introductions are done gradually and correctly, with both pets supervised, then they have a good chance of becoming good friends with other animals in the house. Although one of their personality traits is a tendency to be territorial and dominant, they are usually quick to adjust when the proper rules and boundaries are set.
Dachshunds can be very smart, depending on the individual dog. They often demonstrate great intelligence when it comes to understanding new commands, learning new tricks, adapting to new environments, and they enjoy problem solving. Dachshunds have a strong memory which makes them highly capable of learning new commands and retaining information throughout their lifetime. These dogs are usually willing to please their owners, so they often pick up on cues quite quickly. With consistent, positive reinforcement, they can be trained to complete a variety of tasks.
