Questions & Answers

The Dachshund's coat is generally glossy, smooth and short, but a few long haired varieties exist. It is a sturdy, sleek coat that requires minimal maintenance and is easy to brush. Depending on the variety, the fur can be a variety of colors from rich reds to creamy beiges, and can also include markings such as a saddle, apron, coast, or even dots. The hair around the neck often forms a ruff or frill as well. The Dachshund has a resilient double coat, making it ideal for both warm and cooler climates.
Dachshunds are typically fed high-quality dog food tailored to their needs as an active breed. It is important to make sure that the food you choose is labeled for adult dogs, as puppies need special formulas that are higher in energy, protein, and fat. Additionally, they may benefit from canned wet food, treats, and natural supplements containing things like fish oils, vitamin E, and glucosamine. Giving Dachshunds a variety of food sources is important in order to ensure that they are getting a broad range of key nutrients and antioxidants to stay healthy and strong.
Yes, Dachshunds have some special care requirements. Because of their unique, elongated body shape, their backs can be susceptible to spinal problems if allowed to jump and land unnaturally. Additionally, they should not be overfed as they can become overweight and develop related health issues.

Grooming will also be necessary, including regularly trimming any long fur and occasional bathing.

They may be small, but they have big personalities and love to explore their friends and surroundings. Many people are drawn to their short stature, independent nature, and trainability. Plus, Dachshunds can live a long and happy life in a variety of companionhip settings from single-person homes to apartments to larger households.
Although it's possible to take a Dachshund running, it's not the best choice of activity for your pup. All dogs need exercise, but Dachshunds have different exercise needs than some other breeds. Generally they are better suited for low-impact activities like walks, trotting and playing fetch. It's important to consider your dog's age, size and health when deciding how much exercise is appropriate. Remember that running for extended periods of time with any size or breed of dog can cause joint problems.
Dachshunds can make excellent pets for first-time owners, although they can be a challenge when it comes to training. Dachshunds need to be properly socialized and trained from a young age to avoid behavior problems. They have a lively personality and are great companions for those who are willing to take the time to tend to their needs and exercise them regularly. They love to dig and explore so of course a secure outdoor area is an absolute must.
The amount of time you need to dedicate each day to training depends on many factors. There is no set answer to this question as it will vary from dog to dog. Generally speaking, Dachshunds need an average of 30 minutes of mental and physical stimulation every day in order to stay healthy and happy. This should include activities such as obedience training, walks, grooming, and play time. If your Dachshund is still a puppy then longer training sessions may be needed in order to teach basic commands and housebreaking.
