Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a type of small dog that originates from Germany. Its distinctive body shape makes it recognizable, having short legs, a long slender body, and a tail that is usually curved near its rump. Its ears are round and floppy and its coat may be smooth or wire haired. The word “Dachshund” comes from the German meaning “Badger Dog” and is also known as a “Teckel” in some countries.
Allergies can be managed with Dachshunds, but it is important to take steps to minimize exposure. The most common symptom of allergies is itchy skin, so if you are having a reaction it's important to take your Dachshund to a veterinarian to identify any possible irritants they may be allergic to. A good tactic is to keep them away from anything that may trigger a reaction. Vacuum often and clean any surfaces where your Dachshund spends time, such as on furniture.
Dachshunds, like other small breeds, require a well-balanced diet that includes a high-quality dry dog food specifically formulated for their size and energy level. Some of the best foods for Dachshunds usually contain premium-quality protein sources like chicken, beef, and fish, as well as carbohydrates for energy and moderate amounts of fat. These foods typically also contain fruits and vegetables for vitamins and minerals, as well as omega-3 fatty acids to help keep skin and coat healthy.
Absolutely! Dachshunds have a few special requirements which are important to make sure they stay healthy and happy. Primarily, their diet should consist of high-quality, age-appropriate food which can vary depending on their age. As far as their exercise needs, they need regular walks and stops to sniff their surroundings. For their mental stimulation, they need regular playtime with toys and plenty of affection from their humans. Grooming is also important to their wellbeing, brushing regularly to prevent mats and tangles.
The size of a Dachshund puppy varies, depending on the breed and gender of your pup. Generally speaking, adult male Dachshunds weigh an average of 16 to 32 pounds, while adult female Dachshunds are somewhat smaller with an average weight of around 16 pounds. While your Dachshund puppy may reach its full size as early as 12 months of age, you may find that the full size of an adult Dachshund may not be fully evident until up to two years of age.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds should get around 20 to 30 minutes of exercise per day, which breaks down to about two 10-minute walks, or one longer 20to 30-minute walk. However, depending on your particular dog's age, breed, and health, this can vary. Younger and healthier Dachshunds may need slightly more, whereas senior or elder dogs may need less. It's important to talk with your veterinarian to assess your Dachshund's needs.
