Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are incredible dogs, and one of the most interesting things about them is their fascinating history. Originating in Germany in the 16th century, Dachshunds were bred specifically to hunt badgers and other small animals. Their elongated bodies and short legs are perfect for digging underground and navigating burrows. Additionally, their two coat varieties, show dogs and working/hunting dogs, represent their two unique purposes.
Although many believe that Dachshunds are non-shedding, they actually may shed more than other breeds due to their wiry coats. Dachshunds have a double coat that consists of a coarse outer layer (called guard hairs) and a soft, shorter, dense layer (called undercoat) that insulates the dog from cold. The short-haired Dachshund is the lightest shedders, while the wirehaired and longhaired varieties tend to lose the most hair.
Dachshunds have special dietary needs and it's important to feed them a balanced diet. The best diets combine a high-quality commercial dog food with homemade cooked meals, such as lean meats, cooked rice and vegetables. It's best to feed your Dachshund two small meals a day. Always provide plenty of fresh, clean water and avoid giving them table scraps. If you'd like to give them treats, make sure they're healthy and nutritious, such as fresh fruits and vegetables.
To become the best puppy parent for your Dachshund, there are a few key points to keep in mind. First, create a consistent schedule for your pup and stick to it. This will help your pup to learn basic command cues and potty training. Secondly, make sure to give your pup plenty of activity and exercise. Dachshunds need daily long walks or outdoor exercising to stay satisfied and healthy. Third, provide plenty of training to make sure your pup is well-rounded and socialized. Lastly, give your pup adequate amounts of love and affection.
It depends on a variety of factors including genetics, diet, and exercise. Generally, adult Dachshunds range from 5 to 9 lbs; the tiny teacup variety falls under this range. The size of your Dachshund puppy can depend on the parents' size and their health. As puppies need plenty of nutrition and exercise for proper development, they should be taken to a vet for regular check-ups. You can also keep track of your puppy's growth with a measuring tape to get more accurate insights.
Dachshunds are an active breed, though the degree of activity can vary depending on the individual dog and the attention and exercise it gets. They love to play and explore their environments, and have a reputation for being quite sprightly. They tend to be full of energy, often bouncing around with enthusiasm, and relish activities like running and fetching. They can also be quite mischievous, so it's important to keep them occupied and stimulated. With their natural curiosity and enthusiasm, Dachshunds can be great walking or running companions, and make excellent exercise partners.
Dachshunds can make for great family dogs, as they bring a lot of love and joy into a home. These loving and loyal pups often form deep bonds with their families, making them particularly well-suited for first-time pet parents. Dachshunds also adapt to different living situations, so they can be a great addition to those in apartments, condominiums, and even big houses. They're also excellent watchdogs, paying close attention to who comes and leaves their home.
Dachshunds are generally considered to be intelligent dogs. Their knack for quickly learning tricks and commands, their eagerness to please their owners, and their ability to think on their feet all demonstrate their intelligence. Beyond this, they are known to be just as, if not more, clever than many other breeds of their size. Not only do they outsmart owners who are unaware of their training needs, but they can also figure out ways to reach difficult goals, like opening cupboards or jumping onto furniture, with relative ease.
