Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, commonly known as "wiener dogs" due to their long, slender bodies resembling a hot dog in a bun, are a beloved breed of dog that makes for great family pets. Fun facts about Dachshunds include: they descended from Badger-hunting dogs found in America as well as Germany, they come in a variety of colors and coat types, they can live up to 16 years, they possess an excellent sense of smell, and they are notable for their playful and cheerful personalities.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic which means that those with an allergy to pet hair should take extra precautions when around these dogs. Dander and saliva from a Dachshund can trigger an allergy in some people, however there are levels of shedding that can vary and not all are the same. If you are looking to avoid an allergic reaction due to pet hair, you should consider other breeds that are known to be hypoallergenic.
Dachshunds require a diet tailored to their particular needs due to their distinct anatomy. In general, they should be fed a commercial high-quality dry food that is formulated for their size and energy needs. Choose a diet that has real, quality proteins as the first ingredient, limits carbohydrates, and contains omega fatty acids and healthy vegetables for essential vitamins and minerals. Monitor your pet's weight and adjust food amounts as necessary. Ensuring your pet is not overfed is an important component to their long-term health. Scheduled feeding times help manage portion control.
To prepare for your new Dachshund, it is important to ensure you have the necessary supplies. Start by purchasing an appropriately sized high-quality dog food, as well as food and water bowls, and a collar and leash. You should also set up a comfortable bed for your Dachshund to sleep in. You will also need to make sure your home is safe and secure for your pet. Make sure all hazardous items, such as poisonous plants and potentially dangerous chemicals like cleaning products, are kept out of reach of your pet.
Dachshunds, also known as the 'sausage dog' or 'wiener dog,' come in three different sizes. They can potentially weigh anywhere from 8 to 32 pounds, depending on the size. The "standard" size is the largest, being 16-32 pounds. The miniatures are 11 pounds or less, and the tweenies are in-between. These small dogs have short legs and a long, slender body.Their average height is 5-9 inches. Given their history as hunting dogs, they tend to be quite active and courageous.
Dachshunds are not natural swimmers, but some do enjoy swimming. Most will need some coaxing and confidence-building before they'll be comfortable taking a dip, however, some breeds have been known to take to the water more willingly than others. Generally, if taught from a young age, dogs can become competent swimmers, though it's important to keep a close eye on them and start with short, shallow swims in calm conditions.
Dachshunds are generally friendly dogs and typically do well around children. With proper socialization, these dogs can become excellent family companions, including with kids of all ages. As with all breeds, it is necessary to ensure that both the dog and child are properly taught how to interact with each other in a way that is safe, respectful, and enjoyable. Proper supervision and training can help ensure both the dog and child feel comfortable and understand boundaries.
Training a Dachshund can be challenging due to their independent and stubborn nature, however, it is achievable with the right knowledge and approach. It's important to show your Dachshund love and kindness while also establishing yourself as the pack leader. Positive reinforcement is the key to successful training and should be employed whenever your Dachshund performs a task well. Get your Dachshund used to a routine so they recognize when it’s time for training and reward them with a treat to create a positive association.
