Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, the short-legged and big-eared members of the hound family, have a unique charm about them. One fun fact about Dachshunds is that they were bred to hunt badgers, with their unique body shape making it easier for them to creep through tunnels without getting stuck. In Germany, Dachshunds are known as ‘Teckel’, while in the U.S they are known as ‘wiener dogs’ or ‘hot dogs’.
While Dachshunds typically do not shed as much as other breeds of dogs, they are not completely non-shedding and should not be considered hypoallergenic. They have a relatively short coat, generally made up of a variety of colors, which sheds in moderate amounts seasonally, mostly during the spring and fall as they adjust to changes in temperatures. To keep shedding at a minimum, brushing the coat twice a week with a rubber brush can help to reduce the amount of fur flying around.
It is important to feed your Dachshund a nutritionally balanced diet that is tailored to their age and lifestyle. When selecting food, look for a product designed specifically for the nutritional needs of a Dachshund and one that is labelled as complete and balanced. When preparing meals, aim to give your dog a mix of proteins, carbohydrates and healthy fats. Home-cooked meals that include meat, fish, grains, vegetables and fruits can help ensure your Dachshund is getting all the necessary vitamins and minerals.
First and foremost, make sure that everyone in your home is aware that you will be bringing a new Dachshund into the family and be sure to discuss any concerns, expectations, and responsibilities that come with understanding Dachshunds and their care. Doing your research on Dachshunds and their individual needs is key to ensure you are providing the best possible care for your pup. Be sure to get all the necessary items such as a leash, collar, food and water dishes, and a safe place for them to sleep before bringing them home.
Dachshunds come in two sizes: standard and miniature. The standard size stands approximately 8–9 inches tall at the shoulder and weighs approximately 16–32 pounds. The miniature size is even smaller, standing about 5–6 inches tall and weighing 11 pounds or less. However, both sizes have elongated bodies, short legs, and long heads. Their coats range from smooth to long-haired and come in a variety of colors, from golden red to black and tan. No matter the size, Dachshunds make wonderful, loyal pets for any household.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running, but there are a few things to consider. First of all, before you start running with your pup, make sure they are physically able. It is recommended that you consult your vet before beginning any kind of strenuous activity with them. Your Dachshund should be at least a year old because they need enough time to develop their musculoskeletal system before running. Additionally, you should plan for shorter running sessions at first and gradually increase the length and intensity as your Dachshund becomes accustomed to running.
Dachshunds can make wonderful family dogs, and can make great first-time pets for the right owner. Dachshunds are loyal companions who crave attention and are eager to please, so they often do well in houses with novice owners. However, prospective first-time owners should consider both the pros and cons of the breed before making a commitment. Dachshunds are loyal and energetic, making them easy to train.
Training your Dachshund should begin at an early age, as with all breeds. A positive, reward-based training approach is ideal, using treats and verbal praise to reward desired behaviors and reinforce commands. Since Dachshunds are intelligent and strong-willed, it is important for them to understand that you are the leader and you expect them to follow your rules. It's also important to be consistent and patient when training a Dachshund, as they may take some time to learn things.
