Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are beloved for their small size and loyal, amusing personalities. They come in a variety of colors and coat types, with the most common being red, black and tan, and chocolate and cream. They belong to the hound family and were originally bred to be hunting dogs, working their way underground to hunt badgers and other burrowing animals. Their elongated bodies and short legs are perfect for facing and going through tight spaces.
Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic. Although their fur is relatively short and they are known for being low-shedding dogs, they do still produce dander which is a major allergen for many individuals with allergies. Additionally, their bodies also produce proteins which can cause allergic reactions in some people. With that said, not everyone who has allergies will experience an adverse reaction to being around a Dachshund, as this varies from person to person.
Dachshunds' diet should be adapted to their individual needs, age, and activity level. Generally, a quality commercial diet should meet all of their dietary requirements, and should be supplemented with some form of treats and snacks. Some common and highly nutritious treats for Dachshunds are cottage cheese, yogurt, boiled eggs, fresh vegetables, and fruits. Cooked meat like chicken, turkey, and beef can also be given but in smaller quantities or as treats. It's important to limit how many treats are given as to prevent an unhealthy weight gain.
It is important to prepare your home for your new Dachshund. Ensure that the area is safe by checking for potential hazards, such as items that can be easily chewed or small objects your dog can swallow. Additionally, you can provide a comfortable bed for your dog to sleep in, and create a designated area with a pup-proof enclosure or gate. Additionally, make sure your dachshund has access to fresh, clean water as well as food appropriate for their age, size, and activity level.
On average, Dachshunds range between 8 and 9 inches tall, and usually weigh between 16 and 32 pounds when fully grown. However, this size can vary depending on the type of Dachshund miniature, standard or kaninchen. Miniature Dachshunds are usually the smallest size, usually weighing no more than 11 pounds and standing 5 to 6 inches high. Meanwhile, standard Dachshunds are typically bigger, usually weighing in at 16 pounds or more and standing 8 or 9 inches tall.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are very energetic, playful, and active dogs. They have moderate exercise requirements that can usually be met with a long, leisurely walk, an energetic play session, or a mentally stimulating activity like hide-and-seek. They possess a high prey drive and an eagerness to explore and pursue things that move, which makes them excellent walking or running companions. Dachshunds also enjoy participating in canine sports, such as agility and flyball, and can excel in these activities. Regular mental and physical exercise helps to keep them healthy and happy.
Dachshunds make excellent family pets and have adapted easily to life with humans. They are loyal, devoted and affectionate dogs, and they are full of energy and enthusiasm. They are intelligent, brave and hard-working, making them easy to train. Dachshunds may take some time to warm up to strangers, so they have great 'watchdog' abilities. Despite their small size, Dachshunds can be very playful they love to dig and explore and will happily fetch games.
Training a Dachshund can be a rewarding experience, with the right tips and techniques you can have your pup well-mannered and obedient in no time! First it's important to establish yourself as the alpha by showing your pup that you are in charge. This is done by making sure your pup knows when to obey your commands, like sit, stay, and come. Next, it is important to reward your pup with treats and praise when your commands are followed. This will teach them that following commands has positive consequences.
