Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an iconic, medium-sized breed of dog belonging to the hound group. They are known for their long body and short legs, as well as their prominent ears. In addition to their unique look, they are playful, intelligent, and brave. Despite its cute and small appearance, the Dachshund is an active dog that requires daily exercise to help avoid certain medical problems. These dogs typically live around 12-15 years, and can be found in two standard sizes—standard and miniature—and a variety of colors.
Whether or not having a Dachshund in your home will cause you to have allergies is impossible to say definitively without knowing your individual sensitivities. Dachshunds have medium to long coats which can trap dander, dust and pollen, making them more of an allergen hazard than short-haired breeds. With that in mind, if you're already prone to allergies, it's advisable to opt for a different type of pet. If you're not particularly sensitive to airborne allergens, regular grooming and vacuuming should be enough to reduce the risk of triggering any symptoms.
Dachshunds are generally considered to have an appetite for quality dry food that is designed to support their long bodies and musculature. It is essential to select a product formulated specifically for their size and should include high-quality proteins and carbohydrates as well as added vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids. Other than quality dry food, Dachshunds should occasionally receive wet food or cooked food as a meal supplement.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund involves providing a comfortable and safe environment. Start by making sure your home allows your pup plenty of room to move around. Create a safe, comfortable area that also meets his or her needs, including setting up a bed, toys and potty place. Ensure that any staircases and climbable furniture are gated and secure, to help prevent falls. You will also need to install baby gates to help manage where your pup can and cannot go. Finally, make sure to keep any toxic household items and plants securely away from your pup's reach.
Dachshunds typically range between 8 and 11 inches tall at the shoulder and can weigh from 16-32 pounds. Typically, a standard adult size Dachshund will grow to be 11 inches tall and weigh between 16 and 32 pounds, while the miniature Dachshund will reach up to 8 and 11 inches in height and weigh 11 pounds or less. The body size of the Dachshund varies significantly depending on the breed and type, so it's important to do your research before deciding which size would be best for you.
While it is possible to take your Dachshund running, it is not always recommended. Depending on the individual dog, age, as well as any pre-existing medical conditions, running can place an undue amount of stress on the breed's back and spine. Before taking your dog running, it's best to consult with a veterinarian to assess their ability and level of fitness for such activity. Keep in mind, Dachshunds are by nature short-legged sporting dogs that generally don't require the level of aerobic exercise that a long-legged breed may.
Dachshunds can make good companions for kids, provided they are socialized and trained properly from a young age. Dachshunds tend to be active and playful, making them great for families with children. Many Dachshunds are outgoing and enjoy spending time with members of their own family. With the right guidance and encouragement, they will usually be very welcoming of guests, young and old. They may also develop strong bonds with children, especially if they are given plenty of daily exercise and mental stimulation.
Training your Dachshunds should depend on the individual interests and experience of each dog you’re working with. Generally speaking, you should aim to train your pup(s) for 15-30 minutes per day. This daily session will allow your Dachshunds to practice commands and other behavior-shaping activities. If you want to maximize their progress and growth, you should engage them in several shorter training sessions throughout the day. Avoid exercise and training sessions which last longer than 30 minutes, as it could lead to exhaustion.
