Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a unique breed of loyal and friendly dogs! One fun fact about them is that they were historically bred to hunt badgers and have a wide chest and long, strong frame that makes them great diggers. Additionally, their legs are short and legs for running, making them a great and talented breed. They're also sometimes referred to as 'sausage dogs' because of their long, slender bodies that are shaped like a sausage. They often form incredible bonds with their owners and they're known to be brave and determined. They also come in three different coat types:
No, unfortunately Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic so they may not be suitable for those with allergies. Allergens originate from their saliva and urine which are transferred via their fur, so even if their fur is regularly groomed and combed, it will not necessarily help those with known allergies. Therefore, it's wise to consult an allergist before bringing a Dachshund into a home that has sensitive individuals living in it.
The best dog food for Dachshunds is one that is specially formulated to suit the unique dietary needs of this small breed. It should be nutrient-dense and filled with whole ingredients to provide optimal nutrition, such as proteins, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates. Look for quality levels like "Human Grade" or "Organic Certified" -look for these labels on pet foods that are specifically designed for Dachshunds. Probiotics and antioxidant mix components can also support a healthy gut, while blends of vitamins and minerals can help maintain the immune system.
Before getting a Dachshund, it's important to make sure you have all the necessary supplies. To start, you'll need a comfortable crate or bed where your dog can sleep and feel secure. You should also make sure to get a collar with an ID tag, as well as a leash for walks outside. Additionally, it's important to get food and water bowls that are just the right size for your pup to eat and drink out of. Finally, think about investing in some dog-safe toys, to help keep your pup entertained.
The size of a Dachshund puppy can vary depending on the type of Dachshund you get. This is because they come in three different sizes which are Standard, Miniature, and Kaninchen. Generally, Standard Dachshunds will weigh in between 16 to 32 pounds and stand 8 to 9 inches tall; Miniature Dachshunds will weigh in between 11 to 16 pounds and stand 5 to 6 inches tall; while Kaninchen Dachshunds will usually weigh in between 8 to 11 pounds and stand 4 to 5 inches tall.
The amount of time you should spend walking your Dachshund each day depends on your pet's age, health, and activity level. Generally, it's recommended that all Dachshunds get at least 30 minutes of activity from walking or playing every day. However, for puppies or senior dogs that may not be able to handle an entire 30-minute walk, the exercise can be broken up into smaller periods of 10 minutes each. Additionally, the type of terrain you're walking on and the temperature outside will also factor into the length of time for the walk.
Dachshunds are a social breed, so they can often get along with other animals in the home, with proper socialization and training. If introduced properly, they can become good friends with other animals such as cats, birds, and smaller dogs. A Dachshund's temperament can vary from one individual to the next, and it's important for owners to supervise interactions between their dog and other pets to ensure safety. Training is essential to help teach your Dachshund acceptable behaviors and how to better interact with other animals.
Training your Dachshund requires patience and consistency. Begin by teaching simple commands such as sit, stay, come, and down in your home. Reward your pup with treats and praise for good behavior to reinforce the commands. Positive reinforcement can also be performed with clickers and special toys. Once your pup gets the hang of basic commands, you can move on to outdoor training. Start out in a low distraction area and slowly increase the difficulty as your pup progresses. Use toys and treats as incentives for desired behavior. Socializing your pup is also important for proper training.
