Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an incredibly interesting breed of dog. With their long, sausage-shaped bodies and short legs, they are certainly a unique looking breed choice that stands out from the pack. But there is so much more to them than just their physical appearance. They are a brave breed of canine, known to tackle a variety of animals, from foxes to badgers, much larger than them. They are also extremely loyal, making them great companions for people. They can even be trained to join sport teams and perform complicated tricks.
Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic dogs, meaning that they may provoke allergic reactions in people who are sensitive to pet fur, saliva, and dander. Although some regular grooming and brushing can reduce the amount of allergen produced, it is not enough to make them entirely hypoallergenic. Additionally, to have an animal that is truly hypoallergenic, you would have to look into a breed that has hair instead of fur or no fur at all.
Dachshunds are hearty and love to eat, but it is important to feed them a balanced and nutritious diet to keep them healthy. Since they are prone to weight gain, you should carefully monitor their caloric intake. Their diet should include high quality proteins such as lean meats, poultry, fish, and eggs, and complex carbohydrates such as potatoes, green peas, and root vegetables. Brown rice and oatmeal make for a healthy choice too. Fruits and vegetables can also be a great way to supplement their diet with vitamins and antioxidants.
Yes, Dachshunds do have certain requirements that are important for them to be healthy and happy. Firstly, they need daily exercise to keep their joints and muscles healthy. Secondly, they thrive in a family environment and require regular affection and attention. They also need mental stimulation, as boredom can lead to behavior problems. In general, Dachshunds need regular brushing and coat maintenance, and consistent check-ups with veterinarians in order to be healthy and vibrant.
The size of your Dachshund puppy will depend on its age and breed. Generally, Dachshunds are small dogs and their size can range anywhere from 8-9 inches tall with a weight range of 8-12 pounds, however, some Dachshunds may grow bigger. To get a more accurate idea of your puppy's size, you may want to watch it grow over time to see if they fall within the standard size range for a Dachshund. You can also ask your veterinarian for an estimate of your puppy's full-grown size.
For optimal health and wellbeing, your Dachshund should be walked for at least 30 minutes per day. However, the amount of exercise for your pup will vary depending on their age and breed. A good rule of thumb is to start with shorter and more intermittent walks and slowly increase the duration and intensity as they get older. It's also important to remember that different breeds and ages of dogs will have different needs, so it is beneficial to consult a veterinarian or other animal care expert for advice specific to your pup.
Dachshunds can make wonderful family pets because they generally love to be around people, especially kids. They are naturally friendly and gentle, but their independent nature can make them more difficult to train than other breeds. That said, when given the proper attention and training, Dachshunds can be very tolerant with children – but it's important to note that supervision is necessary to prevent the possibility of nipping and other issues.
Training Dachshunds takes practice and dedication. Depending on the individual pup and its age/development, the amount of time you spend training will vary. Generally speaking, you should look to set aside at least 10-15 minutes per day to work on your pup's training. If you are looking to give your pup some more intense, structured training, then ideally you should be allocating up to an hour per day to working with them.
