Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are unique and recognizable dogs belonging to the Hound group of breeds. A Dachshund's defining physical feature is its elongated body, made up of disproportionately short legs for its size and long back. While they are low to the ground, they have an uncanny endurance that gives them an energetic and endearing personality known for it's tenacity and intelligence. Known to be an independent thinker, these loyal and loving pets are always eager to please their owners.
Dachshunds typically have a double coat. The outer coat is longer and thicker to protect them from harsh weather, while the inner coat is softer and helps to regulate body temperature. Their coats come in a variety of colors, ranging from a solid black/brown/orange to unique patterns such as brindle, sable, or dapple. They require weekly brushing with a soft slicker brush to help keep the coat waterproof and free of dirt and debris. Some owners also use a shaver to trim or even gently shave away excess fur.
With notoriously active temperaments and relentless enthusiasm, Dachshunds need to be provided with the appropriate nutrition to keep them strong and healthy. Dry food is a great option because it is high in protein and other essential vitamins and minerals for your pup, and it is easy to measure out the appropriate portion size. When switching from one brand to another, do it gradually and introduce the new food over a period of several days. You may also offer canned food as an occasional treat, but again, the amount should be measured out and kept to a minimum to avoid obesity.
To ensure a positive experience for you and your new Dachshund, it's important to spend some time preparing your home. Start by puppy-proofing the space secure any cords and move any objects that they might be able to chew on. To keep your puppy safe, make sure that all outdoor spaces are fenced in. Create a dedicated area for their food, toys, and bed. Stock up on all the supplies you'll need: food, treats, a collar, a leash, toys, and a crate.
Dachshunds are often referred to as "hot dogs" due to their small size, but they are actually members of the hound family. In terms of size, they usually range between 11 and 32 pounds, however some may be larger due to breeding. Although Dachshunds are small compared to other breeds, they may still be considered big when compared to the usual standards for small dogs.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered to be an active breed of dog. These dogs require plenty of exercise and stimulation in order to stay healthy and entertained. They are known for having a lot of energy and enthusiasm and will require daily walks and plenty of playtime. Not only do they need regular exercise, but they are also intelligent and require intellectual stimulation as well. You can provide this through interactive toys and puzzles.
