Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a loyal, active breed of dog developed in Germany hundreds of years ago. These lively pooches have scenting abilities that make them popular for small game hunting and come in standard, miniature, and miniature longhaired varieties. Dachshunds are usually friendly and bold, with an independent streak, short legs, and elongated body that give them an endearing look. They typically have long, wiry coats and come in a range of colors such as black, chocolate, white, and sable.
Dachshunds do not usually trigger allergies, but it is a possibility since they are a type of dog that sheds fur and dander. Every individual’s sensitivities vary and it is recommended to spend some time with a Dachshund to determine if allergies will occur. Additionally, it may be helpful to consult an allergist to test your sensitivity to a Dachshund. Moreover, the amount of allergies a person will experience when exposed to a Dachshund depends on the amount of regular maintenance such a dog requires to limit the production of dander.
Dachshunds should be nourished with an appropriate diet of high-quality, premium-brand dry dog food. A good balance should include proteins from animal sources like meat meal, fish and eggs, as well as carbohydrates such as cereals and rice. Puppies need many essential nutrients to support their growth and development, while adults may benefit from lower-calorie diets to keep them lean and healthy. Additionally, healthy fats and omega-3 fatty acids can help to promote their skin and coat health.
Before bringing your new Dachshund home, there are some important steps to ensure that your home is ready. First, start by puppy-proofing your house. This involves ensuring all cords, blind cords, electrical wires and other objects that your pup could potentially chew on are kept out of reach. You may also want to block off any low doors or staircases that are not properly baby gated. Also be sure to go through each room in your home and make sure that there are no objects that could potentially choke, poison or cause any harm to your pup.
Dachshunds typically range in size from miniature to standard, with the miniature variety typically ranging from 9 to 11 inches tall at the shoulder and the standard variety typically ranging from 11 to 24 inches tall at the shoulder. While initial size can vary greatly, an average full-grown miniature Dachshunds weighs about 8 to 11 lbs, while an average full-grown standard Dachshunds weighs 16 to 32 lbs. Despite their small stature, Dachshunds have big hearts and can make great family-friendly pets.
Dachshunds are very active small-breed dogs that require regular exercise and mental stimulation. A daily walk, run, or playtime outside are all essential to keep them happy and healthy. A minimum of 15 minutes per day of activity is recommended, however, more and longer walks are preferable to ensure they are receiving enough exercise. It's also important to remember that Dachshunds possess considerable stamina so it's important to tailor physical activity to keep up with their energetic needs. Additionally, keeping their minds engaged with interactive play will help keep them active and avoid becoming bored.
Dachshunds can be a great pet for first-time owners if they consider the breed’s special needs. Dachshunds are loyal, intelligent little dogs, full of character and they can fit in just about any family.
