Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are loyal and fun-loving dogs that have been around for hundreds of years! They originated in Germany and were originally bred to hunt badgers. Interestingly they were also used to hunt wild boar, rabbits, foxes and even birds! These brave and tenacious little dogs come in two sizes: standard and miniature. The miniature variety stands at 5-6 inches tall and the standard variety stand 8-9 inches tall and weigh anywhere from 16-32 pounds. Dachshunds are intelligent and can often be trained to do tricks and tasks.
Dachshunds, also called sausage dogs, have been a beloved breed for many years due to their low maintenance and cute character. Unfortunately, they are not considered non-shedding dogs, meaning they may lose some fur that needs to be taken care of. It is recommended that you brush your Dachshund's fur two to three times a week with a brush specifically designed for Dachshunds. This will help keep the loose hair to a minimum and help collect excess fur when it falls out.
Dachshunds may have different dietary needs, so it is important to consider their individual sensitivities when choosing the best food. Working closely with your veterinarian is recommended to determine a food tailored for your Dachshund's specific requirements. Generally speaking, high-quality dry food that is specifically formulated for small breeds is ideal. It should be high in fat and protein, with moderate amounts of carbohydrates, and include omega fatty acids for a healthy, glossy coat.
Yes, Dachshunds have some special requirements regarding exercise and diet that should be met in order to keep them healthy and happy. Dachshunds have a tendency to gain weight easily, so providing them with a daily calorie-controlled diet is important to maintain their health. Additionally, these active little dogs have a lot of energy and need regular physical activity to keep them active and in good shape. Providing them with a variety of mental and physical stimulation can help prevent problem behaviors and keep them challenged.
Generally, Dachshunds are not considered to be 'big' dogs in comparison to other breeds, as they typically measure in the 11-16 inch range and weigh between 15-32 pounds. With longer backs and short legs, their sleek stature gives them an adorable, yet petite appearance. However, despite their small size, they still have a big spirit and boundless energy happily playing and running around. Plus, they possess an enduring loyalty towards their owners.
Dachshunds can be considered an active breed of dog, although their activity can generally be managed with proper training. These small German hounds have a tendency to become vocal and zealous, both qualities that lead to them having relatively high activity levels. With that said, Dachshunds need regular exercise and playtime to stay healthy and happy. A combination of physical exercise with plenty of mental stimulation is ideal. With the correct amount of exercise, Dachshunds can make for a fun and interactive pet. Structure and routine can be especially important for this breed.
Dachshunds can get along with other pets, but it depends on the individual dog and its personality. Generally speaking, Dachshunds are social and enjoy company from other animals. However, it is important to remember that early socialization with other animals is a must, as with any other breed. Socialization helps keep Dachshunds from exhibiting any fear-based behaviors toward other animals, so they can more easily get along with other pets.
Training a Dachshund can be a rewarding experience, but it is not necessarily easy. Because of the Dachshund's innate nature of being curious and strong-willed, it is important to start your Dachshund training early and be consistent with it. It is beneficial to invest the time to develop positive training methods and find rewards that will motivate your Dachshund. Additionally, be aware of the breed's physical limitations, since some of the more traditional training methods may not be successful with Dachshunds.
