Questions & Answers
Dachshunds have a unique and interesting history, starting as far back as 16th century Germany. The breed was created by crossing various breeds of hounds, terriers and dachshund-type dogs for the purpose of routing out badgers from their dens! This was done by having these long-bodied dogs with their short legs dig and tunnel their way into the den. Dachshunds often have a funny, playful side to them, and their longer-than-normal bodies make them especially curious and mischievous.
The coat of a Dachshund can vary depending on the breed and should be taken into consideration when choosing a Dachshund as a companion. Generally speaking, the coat of a Dachshund will be short and smooth, or wirehaired, or longhaired. Typically, you'll find Dachshunds with short glossy coats and wirehaired coats, although there are some variations depending on the breed. Short-haired Dachshunds are typically easy to groom, only requiring occasional brushing and occasional baths.
Dachshunds should be given food that is specifically made for small breeds, as that is typically higher in calories since they are a smaller breed. Additionally, look for foods with higher-quality ingredients such as lamb, beef, poultry, and fish; and lower levels of grains since they are generally easier to digest. Ideally, look for foods with omega-3 fatty acids which helps reduce inflammation, and promote healthy skin and coat. Avoid fillers such as corn, wheat, and soy; and foods with artificial colors, flavorings, and preservatives.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund is easy when you plan ahead. First and foremost, it's important to puppy proof your home by removing any hazardous items that could be ingested or prove dangerous. Make sure your yard and outdoor spaces have secure boundaries. Additionally, equip your house with the necessities like a bed, comfortable crate, leash, collar and an assortment of dog toys. If you have existing pets, introduce them to the puppy in an environment that is safe and calming.
Dachshunds typically grow to be between 8 and 9 inches in height, but can reach up to 16 inches tall when standing on their hind legs. They typically weigh between 16 and 32 pounds. The size of a Dachshund partially depends on the variety. The two varieties are standard and miniature. A standard Dachshund usually weighs between 16 and 32 pounds and stands 8 to 9 inches tall. A miniature Dachshund stands no taller than 5 to 6 inches and usually weighs anywhere from 11 to 16 pounds.
Walking your Dachshund should be an integral part of their daily routine. The amount of time you should spend walking them depends largely on their age, energy levels, and health condition – as well as your own comfort level and schedule. Generally speaking, it is recommended for Dachshunds to get 30 minutes to an hour of exercise a day – mostly through walks, but other activities like playing with toys and chasing a ball around can certainly help to accomplish the goal.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds get along splendidly with other pets. They are usually friendly both to animals they are familiar with and to those they have just met. However, just like any breed, it is important to remind owners to introduce animals into their home in a slow and controlled manner, and to ensure that all members of the family are properly taken care of. Early socialization will help owners to prevent any potential issues. This includes training, crate training, as well as providing ample exercise for their Dachshund.
Training a Dachshund, like any other breed, requires commitment and patience as it is not a one-time process. With consistency and proper technique, it can be an enjoyable activity for owner and dog alike. As a result, it is important to understand the needs of your dog and to use positive reinforcement and rewards for desired behaviors. Utilizing special treats, such as small pieces of hotdog or toys that are specific to the breed, can help create an effective training regime, which is more enjoyable for the dog and can result in a quicker learning period.
