Questions & Answers

Questions about Dachshund puppies for sale in Hickory Hills, IL? We have answers.

What class of dog are Dachshund puppies for sale near Hickory Hills?

Dachshunds are an incredibly unique and distinct breed of dog that belong to the hound family. Easily recognizable by their short legs and long, tapering bodies, they are usually classified in the toy group. Often called the “wiener dog” or “sausage dog” given their shape, Dachshunds come in two sizes—standard and miniature. No matter the size, all Dachshunds share the same distinct features such as their long snouts, short muzzles and tall, floppy ears.

Will Dachshund puppies for sale in Hickory Hills cause me to have allergies?

Generally speaking, it is not likely that a Dachshund will cause you to have allergies, though it is possible. Dachshunds have short fur which is less likely to cause allergies than the longer fur of other breeds. Furthermore, Dachshunds, like all dogs, will lose some of their fur overtime, and this dander, or shed fur, is more likely to cause the allergies.

What should I not feed Hickory Hills Dachshund puppies for sale?

Dachshunds should not be fed chicken bones, dairy, or chocolate. Foods that are high in fat, sugar, and salt, including processed foods, should also be avoided. Though tempting, table scraps should always be kept away from Dachshunds. They should also be kept away from uncooked bones or any food that has not been specifically formulated for Dachshunds' nutritional needs.

How do I prepare to adopt Dachshund puppies in Hickory Hills?

Before you bring a new Dachshund into your home, you should be prepared for their temperament, needs, and daily routines. Research the breed and familiarize yourself with the basic grooming and care requirements. Ensure that you have the supplies and time to give your new pup the attention it needs to thrive. Make sure your home is puppy-proofed so your new furry family member won't be harmed. Have the supplies to house train your pet, such as some housebreaking pads, pee-pee pads, and specific type of kennel.

How fast do Dachshunds for sale in Hickory Hills grow?

The size of your Dachshund puppy will depend on the body type and age of the puppy.
