Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a playful, loyal breed with a lot of interesting facts! They were originally bred to hunt burrowing mammals like badgers, and are well suited for digging and working underground because of their short legs and long bodies! They also have incredible endurance, often hot-footing (running) for miles at a time. They come in two sizesstandard and miniature, and both varieties have three distinct coat types: smooth, wirehaired, and longhaired.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. This popular breed of dogs produces significant dander, an allergen that is present in their saliva, skin cells, and urine. While some people with allergies may be able to tolerate Dachshunds better than they can other breeds, they are still not entirely free of the possible symptoms associated with allergens. For those with severe allergies, it is recommended to opt for a truly hypoallergenic breed such as a poodle, bichon frise, or maltese.
When it comes to finding the best dog food for Dachshunds, it is important to research the ingredients and choose a quality food that is specifically tailored to their needs. It is best to opt for a recipe that contains lean proteins such as skinless chicken, turkey, or fish accompanied by complex carbohydrates, such as brown rice, sweet potatoes, and oats. You should also look for a food with natural sources of fiber like lentils, peas or carrots, as well as fruits and vegetables.
In order to ensure you and your new Dachshund have a successful relationship, it is important to take the time to properly prepare to welcome your new pup. Start by researching what their needs will be–from grooming, exercising, and socializing to understanding their personality and behaviors. Make sure you have the necessary supplies, such as a crate, bedding, food, toys, and other items. Additionally, until your Dachshund is fully trained and housebroken, puppy-proof your home to keep them safe and save yourself the frustration of accidents or damaged property.
Dachshunds come in three sizes – Standard, Miniature, and Kaninchen. The Standard Dachshund is the biggest, being 16 to 32 pounds and 8-9 inches tall at the shoulder. It is typically considered any Dachshund up to and including 11 pounds. Miniature Dachshunds are 11 pounds or under and are about 5 to 6 inches tall at the shoulder. Finally, the Kaninchen Dachshund is the smallest.
Dachshunds are known for being active and curious dogs. They have been bred to endure long periods of activity, making them adept at hunting, competing in dog shows, and providing companionship so it's easy to see why they require plenty of exercise and intense mental stimulation. Whether the dachshund is a standard, miniature, or wire-haired type, their attention-seeking personalities and devoted energy make them ideal dogs for the active person or family.
Yes, Dachshunds typically get along with other pets quite well. Generally the breeds have an even temperament and are even-keeled with other animals, both in their own house and outside of it. They can be a bit skittish and wary around larger animals, so early socialization with other pets is important. Dachshunds also get along well with cats, which is beneficial for multi-pet households. Some Dachshunds even enjoy playing with other animals.
Training a Dachshund is a fun and rewarding process that will benefit both you and your pup. The key is to start with small steps and practice basic commands in short 5-10 minute increments. Start training with your pup when it is young, as this will build a strong obedience and trust foundation that will last a lifetime. A good strategy to remember is positive reinforcement, rewarding your pup for learning and good behavior with verbal praise and treats. Use teacher-style interaction as you work with your pup, as this helps them to understand the rules more quickly.
