Questions & Answers
Dachshunds belong to the Hound Group. This is a class of dogs that typically hunt using their extraordinary sense of smell and determination. Like other hound breeds, Dachshunds are clever, spunky, and independent. They possess a courageous and playful attitude, and make for loving, loyal companions. Dachshunds can take part in a variety of activities, from simple family walks to trail hikes but they also do really well in endurance activities, such as agility and earthdog.
Dachshunds typically have a long, slim coat that can be smooth, wirehaired, or longhaired. The coat varies in color from deep red and tan, to black and tan, long-haired varieties that can be golden or silver dappled. They have an incredibly soft undercoat which keeps them warm in the winter months. Generally, the hairs on their backs are slightly longer, and the hairs around their legs are shorter and velvety. The texture of the coat depends on the variety.
Dachshunds are active and intelligent dogs that are prone to obesity, so their diets have to be carefully considered. It's important to feed them high-quality food designed specifically for their breed. A great diet plan for Dachshunds should include wet and dry food, treats, and supplements. Wet food is great for hydrating your pet while dry food is beneficial for your pup's dental health. Treats that are specifically designed for Dachshunds are important, as the breed is known for being sensitive to ingredients that might upset their digestion.
Having all the necessary supplies before bringing home a Dachshund is essential for their comfort and safety. You will need to buy food and water dishes, a leash and collar, chew toys, a crate, treats, and a bed. Many owners also like to get a brush or comb in order to properly groom their Dachshund, but only some of them require frequent brushing. Additionally, if you plan to regularly take your Dachshund outside, you will want to invest in small booties to protect their sensitive feet.
Dachshunds are medium-sized dogs, but they have a lot of energy and love to explore their surroundings. Compared to other dog breeds, some would not consider Dachshunds to be large dogs, as other breeds tend to be taller and heavier. However, compared to other small to medium sized breeds, Dachshunds may seem larger and their short legs and long bodies provide them with a unique look that can make them appear larger than they really are. Their inquisitive natures make them a great companion for anyone looking for an adventurous pup.
Dachshunds, or 'wiener dogs' as they are sometimes referred to, are considered to be prone to enjoying water activities such as swimming. While it would be advisable to introduce them to the water first and have them slowly acclimate to the activity for safety reasons, most will embrace being in the water and many will eagerly take up swimming. It can be an enjoyable experience for the dog and the owner, who will be delighted by the enthusiasm with which their pup dives in.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are generally very people-oriented, and have even been known to show signs of joy and excitement when interacting with kids. They are also known to make excellent family pets, as they thrive on love and attention and always show loyalty to their owners. With their mischievous spirit and playfulness, Dachshunds love to engage with kids and even have an affinity for roughhousing. However, being a smaller breed, they do require gentle handling and supervision from adults when interacting with children, to avoid accidental injury.
Training your Dachshund can be a rewarding and fun experience for you both. The best way to get started is to understand your dog's individual needs. Some Dachshunds may require more patience, attention, or rewards than others. In addition, it's beneficial to develop a consistent set of rules and expectations from the outset. Begin by teaching the basics such as sit, stay and come when called, using positive reinforcement techniques. Once your pup has mastered the basics, consider providing further fun and stimulating activities, such as agility, clicker training or trick training.
