Generally, they will grow to between 8 and 9 inches tall at which point they can range from 11 to 32 pounds. Keep in mind that all dogs, including Dachshunds, will continue to fill out and may even add a few more pounds after their growth plates close. Regular vet visits and a healthy diet can help them reach their maximum size potential.
Dachshunds have been around for centuries in various roles from hunting badgers to helping with vermin control, but the breed is also known to be a great companion so it is natural for them to enjoy spending time with their humans. It is no surprise then that many dachshunds enjoy swimming! Generally speaking, it is important to note that some do, and others may not. It is important to remember that even with those that do enjoy swimming, it is important to make sure they are comfortable at all times.
Dachshunds can be great with kids when raised properly and given the necessary training and socialization. Dachshunds will often form strong bonds with the kids in their homes, who are able to give them the time, attention, and play they require. Of course, the decision to allow a dachshund to be part of the family must be weight against the size and strength of the children in the home, as any dog may be too big or excitable for a small child or baby.
The amount of minutes per day that you need to train Dachshunds depends largely on the individual pup – different breeds and ages of Dachshunds will have unique training needs. However, as a general guideline, you will want to initially start with around 5 minutes per day of focused training, to ensure that your pup is properly acclimating to the training. Over time, you can then gradually increase the duration of training sessions, preferably up to a half hour, as long as the pup remains focused without becoming overwhelmed.
