Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a unique breed that originated in Germany. They are known for their short legs and long, slender bodies. They are a very loyal and devoted breed that loves attention and affection. Dachshunds come in a variety of colors and can weigh up to 32 pounds. Dachshunders have a natural hunting instinct, so they tend to bark a lot and require lots of physical exercise to stay healthy. They can also be prone to back problems so it is important to keep their activity level in check.
Dachshunds have a unique, recognizable coat that is smooth and coarse at the same time, with smooth hairs on the chest, ears, and face, and coarse hairs on the back and limbs. Their coats also come in a variety of colors, including reddish-brown, black and tan, black and cream, solid black or gray, chocolate, and even dapple. While the average dachshund has short hair, long-haired dachshunds are not uncommon either.
Dachshunds should not be fed anything that is a choking hazard, including rawhide, bones, pig ears, or other hard snacks. They also should avoid processed foods which contain artificial preservatives, colors and flavors. Human snacks such as chocolate, nuts, candy and soda should be avoided because these can contain toxic ingredients, as well as too much fat and sugar. While providing treats, keep in mind that Dachshunds can become quite overweight, so it's best to limit them to food specifically manufactured for dogs.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund can involve general safety measures as well as preparing for the needs of the breed. Consider child proofing your house and hiding any cords or small, fragile objects that the pup might mistake for toys. Securely fasten trashcans, create a controlled environment for the pup in the early stages, and provide a safe space for it to sleep in at night. Additionally, look into getting dog-proof furniture, food dishes, toys, and other items that are specially designed for the breed's comfort and safety.
Dachshunds vary greatly in size, depending on their type and whether they are standard or miniature. Generally, they are considered small to medium-sized dogs. However, Dachshunds can weigh up to 32 pounds and can stand up to 8 inches tall, so larger Dachshunds could be considered 'big'. Ultimately, it is up to each individual to decide whether a Dachshund is big or small, based on what they consider the typical size of a dog to be.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running, however you should make sure to consult with your vet first. It is important to check that your Dachshund is healthy and has no underlying health issues that would prevent you from running with them. Even after checking with your vet, you should still start your running sessions slowly and pay close attention to your Dachshund’s behavior and activity level while running. Dachshunds are a small breed and are not made for long, high-intensity running sessions.
Dachshunds can make great family pets and do typically get along with kids. They are known for being loyal, loving, and energetic, which makes them great companions for children. With any pet, it is important to supervise interactions between kids and the animal, and teach the kids how to interact with the pet correctly. Training the pet properly and getting them used to children is also important to ensure they have a good relationship.
The amount of minutes per day you need to train Dachshunds depends on your desired goals and the level of obedience and responsiveness you are looking to achieve. Generally speaking, a good rule of thumb is to commit to training sessions that last at least fifteen minutes each day. This will ensure that you are providing your pooch with consistent and reliable practice in the skills you are teaching them.
