Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a loyal, clever breed of dog that originated in Germany during the early 1800s. Dachshund stands for "badger dog" in German, a reference to the breed's common use for badger hunting. Dachshunds are low-set, long-legged dogs known for having a loyal but independent spirit, a brave and spirited personality, and a unique body shape. Dachshunds are recognizable by their small size, short legs, long body, and usually distinctive bark.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds may be difficult since they have a natural propensity for shedding. To help reduce allergens, make sure your Dachshund is bathed regularly and brushed often. Vacuuming carpets, furniture, and other surfaces regularly can also help keep allergens in check. Additionally, be sure to use hypoallergenic or non-allergenic cleaning products on furniture, floors, and other surfaces.
Yes, Dachshunds do have special dietary needs. Since they are prone to becoming overweight, Dachshunds require nutritious food that is low in fat and calorie content. Since they have a short and powerful neck, it is important to provide them with food that dissolves easily in their mouths and is easy to consume which can include wet food, bones, and soft chew toys. Additionally, it is important to limit their snacks to prevent them from becoming overweight.
Preparing for your new Dachshund can be an exciting process. To ensure you provide a loving and educationally stimulating home, there are a few simple steps you can take. Start by researching the behavior and temperment of Dachshunds to ensure you understand their individual behaviors and how to successfully bond with your pup. Create a safe and comfortable space for them that is Dachshund-friendly. Purchase necessary items such as food & water bowls, bedding, toys, treats, and other necessary supplies.
Absolutely! Though Dachshunds are generally in the medium range of dog sizes, they are commonly considered small dogs because of their short stature and lightweight build. Oftentimes a full-grown adult Dachshund will weigh less than 20 lbs. and have a maximum height of no more than 8 inches. They are also known to be quite nimble and energetic, often acting much larger than they actually appear to be. For these reasons, they make great companion animals for small apartments and children's playtime.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running with you, although you'll need to consider some important safety factors before doing so. Make sure to walk or run on soft surfaces like turf, grass, or dirt so your pup's joints won't take any extra strain from running on hard surfaces. It's also important to give your pup plenty of breaks during your running session. Not only should they have enough energy, but their short legs and elongated back can easily become strained. Finally, watch the temperature.
Dachshunds make great family pets and are often good with kids, making them an ideal choice for homes with little ones. Generally speaking, they are very devoted and protective of their family members, so they can make good playmates for children. Many Dachshunds are affectionate, mellow, and patient with children providing they are supervised and treated with respect. It's important parents teach their children how to properly interact with their furry companion, so that everyone can enjoy quality time together.
Training a Dachshund, or any other breed of dog, can vary depending on the type of training and the individual dog, but as a general guideline, starter training on basic commands and good behavior should last at least 15 minutes per day, two to three days per week, with a longer, more intensive session once or twice a week.
