Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a small, long-bodied, short-legged breed of dog of the hound family. They can come in three coat varieties: smooth, wirehaired, or longhaired. They were originally bred to hunt small animals like badgers and have low to the ground, long bodies and short legs that help them to easily sneak through tunnels, under brush, and into dens. They typically have long, floppy ears and are a very popular pet due to their charming, playful nature.
The Dachshund's coat is typically short and sleek, with many different colors and patterns possible. Depending on the type, they can have single-colored coats, or combinations of strong tones like black and tan, chocolate and tan, or wildboar, each one giving them a unique and distinctive appearance. While the coat is generally short and smooth, some have a soft and silky texture and some longer-haired types have wiry fur. It is important to groom the coat regularly to help maintain a manageable length and keep it looking its best.
Dachshunds should not be fed foods that are overly salty or sugary, as this can lead to weight gain and other health issues. Additionally, Dachshunds should avoid grapes, raisins, garlic, onions, Xylitol, dairy products, walnuts, and uncooked meat, fish, and eggs, as these can be toxic to them. Human food, such as chocolate, candy, snacks, and greasy or processed foods, should not be given to Dachshunds under any circumstances.
Yes, Dachshunds do have certain care requirements. Dachshunds are quite active and require regular exercise and playtime for optimal physical and mental stimulation. They are best suited for active owners who are willing to commit to their physical and mental needs. Dachshunds require regular grooming and visits to the vet for checkups and vaccinations to ensure their overall health. They may also need dental care, so brush their teeth regularly. To keep their coat healthy and shiny, Dachshunds should be bathed at least once a month.
Though Dachshunds may appear small in stature, the answer to the question is not quite as black and white. While Dachshunds can be considered small dogs because, on average, they are only about 8 to 9 inches tall and weigh 16-32 pounds, the American Kennel Club considers them part of the small-sized breeds, rather than a toy-sized variety.
Dachshunds, also known as “wiener dogs” or “sausage dogs”, vary in their level of interest in swimming. Some dachshunds have a natural instinct to swim, while others may need an introduction to swimming. Generally speaking, most dachshunds will enjoy the occasional swim provided it is done safely and under close supervision. However, Dachshunds may have difficulty with buoyancy so it is important to take precautions to protect against potential drowning.
Dachshunds are generally known to be great family companions. They are intelligent, affectionate, devoted dogs who form strong bonds with their owners and can be a great addition to any home. They can be easily trained, get along well with children, and tend to be accepting of other animals as long as they have been carefully socialized. Furthermore, their size and energy levels make them especially suitable for urban settings, making them a great fit for homes where space is limited.
The amount of time needed to train Dachshunds per day can vary depending on the individual dog. Generally, training sessions should be kept relatively short, no more than 10 minutes at a time and should be performed two or three times per day. That being said, if the owner is able and willing to invest a bit more time, up to 20 minutes per day could be beneficial for the Dachshund's progress.
