Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a type of small to medium-size breed of dogs in the hound family. They are also known as 'Wiener Dogs' due to their long, slim build that is similar in shape to a sausage or wiener. They were first bred in Germany a few centuries ago to successfully scent, chase, and flush out badgers and other burrow-dwelling animals. A Dachshund's coat may be short, long, and wirehaired, and they come in a variety of colors including black, tan, and red.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds are not considered to be non-shedding dogs. These pups are known for their dense, double coats that tend to produce a rather significant amount of shedding. The intensity of shedding, however, may depend on the individual pup and can vary depending on the breed as well as other factors such as gender and diet. Additionally, regular grooming and combing can help to keep shedding at a minimum and maintain the pup's coat in top condition. Despite the potential for shedding, Dachshunds remain a popular and beloved breed all over the world.
Dachshunds are known for their voracious appetites and it can be tricky to figure out what to feed them. Aim to feed your Dachshund a species-appropriate diet that contains fresh, whole, high-quality ingredients. A combination of fresh food, such as lean meats,and a good-quality dry food is ideal for these active, playful pups. Buy a food that is designed specifically for small-breed dogs as, in general, these contain more calories in smaller portions and are less likely to cause digestive issues.
Dachshunds do have specific requirements and needs that must be met to keep them healthy, and help them thrive. They require regular exercise, physical and mental stimulation, as well as proper diet to maintain good health. It is also important to provide them with regular visits to the vet in order to keep on top of vaccinations and pest prevention. They often require trimming and grooming of their thick coats, and nail trimming to ensure their overall health.
Everyone's Dachshund puppy is different, so it is impossible to say how big your puppy will be with 100% accuracy. Generally speaking, Dachshunds are considered to be small-sized dogs and adult male Dachshunds commonly reach between 11 and 12 inches in height, while the female Dachshunds typically reach 10 to 11 inches. The weight of this breed varies from 16 to 32 pounds.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running provided you take appropriate precautions. Dachshunds aren't known to be long-distance runners like some other breeds, so when running, you should be mindful of their capabilities. Make sure your Dachshund is safe and monitored at all times. Start off running short distances at slower speeds, and gradually work up to longer distances. Before beginning a running regimen, consult with your veterinarian to make sure your pet is healthy enough for the activity.
Dachshunds typically get along well with other pets, such as cats and small animals, as long as all pets involved are properly socialized and introduced. It is important to take the time to ensure that all the pets in the household are comfortable with one another and have had the chance to become accustomed to their new environment. Dachshunds are typically friendly, alert and confident pets, and are especially good companions for older, more sedentary pets. With patience and consistency, pet owners can create a harmonious home for their Dachshund and other pets.
Training a Dachshund can be a rewarding experience. The first step is to be consistent with your Dachshund, introducing them to basic commands such as 'sit' and 'stay'. As your bond with your pet strengthens, you can move onto more difficult commands like 'come' and 'stand'. Positive reinforcement is the key, so be sure to give your pet plenty of treats and praise when they obey your commands. When teaching your Dachshund to walk on a leash, start in a familiar place and keep the leash short.
