Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are often referred to as wiener dogs because they have long, sausage-like bodies. They originated from Germany over 400 years ago, and were bred to be hunting dogs. Dachshunds come in many varieties, including standard, miniature and kaninchen (rabbit-sized), as well as smooth-haired, wire-haired and long-haired. Though small in size, Dachshunds can be surprisingly brave and bold.
The Dachshund coat is unique and distinctive. Its smooth, sleek coat typically has short hair that is the same length all over its body. It has a brown and tan coloring and may have some lighter colors around the face and chest. Its most noteworthy feature may be its long, wire-haired coat. This coat may be a single color or a combination of colors, sometimes with white, gray, or light tan accents. The tail is normally plumed or feathered and the fur may be slightly wavy.
Dachshunds should not be fed grapes, raisins, onions, garlic, large bones, and human snacks such as chocolate, chip, and candy. High-fat foods, fried treats, and processed foods should also be avoided since they can cause weight gain and digestive problems. Dachshunds can also be sensitive to certain foods, so it's important to check with your vet before introducing anything new to your pet's diet. Additionally, Dachshunds should never be given any sort of raw meat or raw hide products.
Dachshunds are social animals that require frequent human interaction and companionship. They may also require additional exercise to keep their minds and bodies active. Dachshunds typically need mental stimulation and playtime to stay happy and healthy. They should also receive regular brushing and grooming to keep their coats and nails in good condition. Since they are prone to back problems, they should be provided with comfortable sleeping and exercise areas on appropriate surfaces, such as soft carpets and orthopedic beds.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. They are a toy breed of German origin developed in the early 19th century for the purpose of hunting small burrowing animals such as rabbits and badgers. Dachshunds are small in size compared to other breeds, usually ranging between 8-9 inches tall and 11-16 pounds. While they are short in stature, Dachshunds have large personalities and are known for their intelligence and playful nature.
Absolutely! Taking your Dachshund running can be a great form of exercise for both you and your pooch. However, there are a few things to consider before taking your pup out on a run. Dachshunds are prone to back issues, so it's important to start slow and talk to your veterinarian if you have any questions. Start by taking your dog on short jogs, and then slowly increase the distance as your pup builds up stamina.
Dachshunds are generally friendly and can get along with other pets provided they have been socialized well. Due to their small size and easy-going nature, they are an ideal companion for larger animals. However, given their hunting instincts and badger-like behavior, they need to be supervised when around other animals, particularly smaller ones such as cats and rabbits. Proper training is essential to help the Dachshund understand acceptable behavior and to also help them become comfortable around other pets.
Training a Dachshund can be a rewarding experience; however, it does require dedication and patience. As with any breed, there are some things that make them unique and need to be taken into consideration for training. Dachshunds are independent, intelligent, and can carry over behaviors from one environment to another. So consistency across all environments is important. Additionally, positive reinforcement is encouraged for training as Dachshunds are sensitive and can be easily shamed.
