Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a breed of small, lively and intelligent dogs. They often have a hunting instinct so they can be trained to be very good watchdogs. Dachshunds have short legs and long bodies; due to their anatomy, it's important that they remain fairly active as too much inactivity can lead to spinal issues. When it comes to personality, this breed is known for being loyal, affectionate and eager to please. While they may not be the most suitable dog for a first-time pet owner, they're very good companions for an experienced one.
It is possible that Dachshunds may cause an allergic reaction depending on an individual's sensitivity to canine dander and saliva. While every person's allergies are unique to their own body, Dachshunds, like any other breeds, may cause an individual to experience a range of mild to more severe allergic reactions, including itchy skin, watery eyes, sneezing, coughing, runny nose, and asthma.
Dachshunds are fairly active dogs with specific dietary needs. In general, the best food to feed a Dachshund is a quality moist and dry commercial dog food that is suited for their breed size and life stage. They should also be fed at regular times throughout the day in order to maintain good health. Additionally, adding some home-cooked lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy items to their diet is a great way to supplement their primary food source. Avoid giving them sweets, fatty meats, and scraps.
Preparation is key when bringing a new Dachshund into your home. Start by investing in a secure and roomy crate or kennel. Include a safe and comfortable place for your pup to rest such as a pet bed or crate pad. Make sure areas such as any dangerous areas or stairs are blocked off either physically or with baby gates. Provide a variety of age-appropriate toys as well as canine enrichment activities like hide and seek with a treat to help with mental stimulation. Don't forget to research and buy quality food and snacks to keep your pup in the best of health.
Dachshunds come in two different sizes, standard and miniature. Standard Dachshunds stand at 8-11 inches tall at the shoulder, and can weigh between 16-32 pounds. Miniature Dachshunds are usually 11 inches tall or less, weighing about 11 pounds or less. Dachshunds also come in a variety of coat colors and patterns, such as black and tan, chocolate and tan, and red with a dapple pattern.
Walking your Dachshund every day is important to keep it healthy and happy. The recommended amount of exercise for a Dachshund is between 30 and 60 minutes. However, this can vary depending on the age, energy level, and health of the dog. It is also important to consider the weather or terrain you are walking on a hotter day will require a shorter walk and extreme cold or wet surfaces can be dangerous for Dachshunds.
Dachshunds can be great for first-time owners, depending on the person's lifestyle, experience, and the individual dog. Dachshunds are generally friendly, intelligent, and loyal dogs, which can make them easier to train as compared to other breeds. They can form strong bonds with their owners and are known to be quite affectionate and lively. Dachshunds may have a stubborn streak, and so being consistent and persistent with proper training and socialization can help ensure smooth ownership in the long run.
Training a Dachshund requires patience and consistency. The exact amount of minutes per day to dedicate to training varies depending on the individual dog's age and behavior. It is important to establish a routine and stick to it as much as possible. Generally speaking, it is recommended to spend at least 15 minutes per day doing some kind of training activity with your Dachshund. This could include teaching basic obedience commands, such as sit and stay, or a combination of physical exercise and mental stimulation.
