Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are intelligent, spunky, and loyal dog breeds. They typically weigh between 16 and 32 pounds and stand around 8-9 inches at the shoulder. Dachshunds are very loyal and can make great family pets, though they can be a bit stubborn. Early socialization and training is recommended for this breed in order to keep them obedient. Dachshunds are known to be escape-artists and prone to barking, so it's important to provide adequate stimulation to keep them from getting bored or barking excessively.
Dachshunds can be a great choice for those who are concerned about allergies, as they have a very low dander count versus other dog breeds. Nonetheless, everyone's level of sensitivity to saliva, pet dander, and other allergens varies and it is certainly possible that you may experience some mild allergic symptoms, such as sneezing, congestion or watery eyes. If you're concerned about allergies, it's recommended to spend some time with a Dachshund before making a commitment to get one. This can help to determine if you have any allergic reactions to the breed.
Dachshunds are high energy, playful, and intelligent dogs, with varied dietary needs. It’s important to ensure that your Dachshund is receiving proper nutrition for optimal health. A diet that is low in fat and high in lean animal protein, along with essential fatty acids, is recommended. Make sure to provide a variety of nutrient-rich foods, such as lean beef, chicken, yogurt, brown rice, sweet potatoes, and vegetables.
Yes, Dachshunds have certain requirements that they need in order to live a long, healthy life. Firstly, Dachshunds require regular exercise, as well as mental stimulation, to help prevent obesity and other health issues. Proper nutrition is also essential for their wellbeing, and it is important to feed a balanced diet, suitable for their breed, age, and activity levels. Additionally, regular grooming is important for a Dachshund to keep their coat healthy and clean, as well as to check their skin for any signs of infection.
Dachshunds come in two sizes: standard (also referred to as "large") and miniature. Standard size dachshunds usually weigh between 16 and 32 pounds and the miniature size usually weights between 11 and 16 pounds. Dachshunds are often distinguished by the length of their legs, as well as their body types. Standard size Dachshunds have longer legs and longer bodies--sometimes referred to as "Swedish" type. Miniature size Dachshunds have shorter legs and shorter bodies--sometimes referred to as "English" type.
Dachshunds are known for their active nature, so it's important for them to get regular exercise in order to stay healthy. While the exact amount of exercise depends on the individual dog, many experts recommend at least 30 minutes, two to three times daily. It's also important to take your Dachshund for regular walks and run sessions to give them the chance to explore and scent the area. If possible, consider taking your dog to an off-leash play area to give them the room to get some extra exercise and enjoy themselves.
Dachshunds can generally get along with other animals, but it varies dog to dog. Generally, they are very social and will make friends with cats, other dogs, small mammals, and even reptiles! Socialization with other animals at an early age is important, as it helps the dog to learn appropriate behavior. As always, supervision should be done when introducing most animals to each other to ensure the safety of all involved. Dachshunds can make wonderful pet companions with the right training, socialization, and lots of love.
Training a Dachshund requires patience, consistency, and a positive attitude in order to be successful. There are several methods to start their training which include positive reinforcement, crate and house training, and obedience training. Positive reinforcement is rewarding your pup with treats or words of praise when they do something correctly. Crate and house training involves teaching them where it is appropriate to eliminate and which areas of the house are off limits. Lastly, obedience training is teaching them commands such as sit, stay, come, etc. When training your pup, be sure to make things fun and interesting.
