Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are loyal, affectionate dogs that love to be around their owners. They are a lively breed who will often want all your attention and will be protective of their family. Dachshunds are intelligent and can be trained to do tricks and follow commands with relative ease. Exercise is important for Dachshunds to make sure they stay healthy. Keeping them active with long walks, running and playtime is the best way to keep your Dachshund in optimal health. They may be small but they require a lot of exercise to stay strong and healthy.
Whether or not a Dachshund would cause a person to have allergies depends on their individual health and allergy history. If a person already has seasonal allergies and any type of contact with a Dachshund causes them to experience a worsening of their allergies, then it is possible they might be allergic to the breed. People who are considering adding a Dachshund to their home should take time to meet the breed in person and note any effects on allergies before making the final decision.
Dachshunds are primarily carnivorous, meaning their diet consists of mostly meat, though they can also benefit from some vegetables, grains, and dairy. It is best to feed your Dachshund high-quality, protein-rich dog food that is specifically formulated to meet their nutritional needs. Fresh meats, such as chicken, beef, or lamb, can also be included as part of a healthy diet. Fish, eggs, and other proteins provide essential fatty acids and minerals that are necessary for healthy skin and a beautiful coat.
Dachshunds are a special breed of dog with some unique requirements. Due to their short legs and elongated body, they need plenty of regular exercise. They also need stairs if they are living in a multi-level home. Being a hunting breed, they may be prone to chasing small animals and require a secure area to play. They are sociable dogs and need mental stimulation from people, including playing fetch, tricks, or training. As with any pet, Dachshunds need regular veterinary check-ups and vaccinations to stay healthy.
Dachshunds can be anywhere from 5 to 32 pounds, depending on the type. The size of Standard Dachshunds typically is between 16-32 pounds. Miniature Dachshunds weigh in at 11 pounds and under, while "Tweenies" (or "Tweener") Dachshunds typically weigh in at 12-16 pounds. Regardless of size, Dachshunds are considered to be a small breed of dog.
Everyone's Dachshund is different, so the amount of time per day you should be walking your Dachshund depends on their age, size, and activity level. Generally speaking, Dachshunds need between 30-60 minutes of exercise each day in order to stay healthy and energetic. This should include at least one long walk and ideally some time to play as well. If your dog appears to be bored, it might be a sign they need more exercise. Providing ample opportunities for regular exercise will ensure they stay in good physical shape and possess a balanced personality!
Yes, Dachshunds usually get along well with other pets as long as the proper introduction is provided. While they can bring plenty of spunk and energy to the home, they are also friendly and sociable with other animals. Early socialization and continued positive reinforcement can help avoid conflicts that may arise due to territorial or protective behaviors. They may even enjoy snuggling up with another pet at night! With a loving and consistent approach, Dachshunds not only make wonderful companions, but get along well with any other pets in their house.
Training a Dachshund requires patience, consistency, and kindness. Introduce the basics of potty training, obedience commands, and basic behavior training early on. Start by teaching simple verbal commands such as ‘sit’, ‘down’, and ‘heel’, as well as reinforcing positive behaviors. Use treats, toys, or verbal rewards to reinforce desired behaviors. It is also important to establish a structured daily routine for them so they understand when it's time to eat, go outside, or cuddle.
