Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a breed of dog that belongs to the Hound Group. They are often referred to as "wiener dogs" or "sausage dogs" due to their unique and fairly long body shape. Though they may look like small hounds, they actually have a standard size which is just slightly longer than a normal pup. Dachshunds are considered a lively and playful breed that loves being around its owners and loves to go on walks or hunts. They have a lot of energy and are eager to please their owners, making for a perfect family pet.
Although Dachshunds are generally known to have low-shedding coats, they are not considered to be hypoallergenic. This means they can still trigger allergies in some people. This is because even though a dog may have a low-shedding fur coat, its saliva, dander, and urine can still cause an allergic reaction in some people. Those who prefer a hypoallergenic breed should look for a dog whose coat has been bred to be virtually non-shedding.
It depends on your Dachshund's individual needs. A quality, balanced, and nutritionally complete diet is essential for the health of your Dachshund. Look for foods specifically formulated for small-breed Dachshunds that contain higher levels of protein and fat for their higher levels of metabolism. Make sure the ingredients are made of real meat, not by-products and keep an eye on the amount of sodium and sugar. Some brands even offer diets catered to certain allergies and sensitivities.
To best prepare your home for a new Dachshund, you should start by investing in some key supplies. Make sure you invest in a good quality dog bed, as well as crate, as these will be your pup's personal spaces. Other supplies you should have on hand are toys, food, bowls, a leash, and a few treats. You should also determine where you puppy will potty train, as this will be the most important part of their routine.
Indeed, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. Technically classified as "toy" breed, Dachshunds are much smaller than the average-sized breeds found in most American households. Of the toy breeds, Dachshunds boast a slightly longer torso but are still quite small compared to their larger relatives. Their short stature exhibits a lively personality and desire for play time regardless of their size. Dachshunds may be small but they are full of love and loyalty, making them a great addition to any home.
Dachshunds typically enjoy water, particularly if they have been socialized and trained with it from a young age. Some Dachshunds are natural swimmers, instinctively hopping in the water without hesitation. Other Dachshunds may require a bit of coaxing and encouragements to get in the water but, in most cases, the breed will get used to it, especially with the aid of water toys and treats. Further, Dachshunds have strong legs that give them good propulsion and an ability to steer.
Generally, Dachshunds are great family dogs and do well with children. However, it is important to consider the individual personality of each dog, and the key to having a successful relationship with kids is proper introductions, training, and supervision. Dachshunds can be both loving and protective, so socializing your pup from an early age is essential to ensuring they learn to interact nicely with children. Creating a safe environment with clear expectations such as gentle touches and no biting is also critical for fostering a positive relationship between your Dachshund and your child.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered smart dogs. They possess an impressive capacity to learn and retain information, as well as a knack for problem solving. Not only are they able to learn commands like any other dog, but they are also savvy enough to follow instructions without needing to be commanded multiple times. Furthermore, Dachshunds also demonstrate an extraordinary level of understanding of their owners’ emotions and body language, making them highly perceptive and exceptionally adept at responding to the needs of their owners.
