Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, or "sausage-dogs," are a fun pet to have. One of the most interesting facts about the breed is that it comes in three sizes: Standard, Miniature, and Kaninchen, which is German for Rabbit. While all three have the same long, slim body, the size varies depending on the type. Dachshunds were originally bred to hunt burrowing animals such as badgers, rabbits, and groundhogs.
While Dachshunds are considered low-shedding breed, they are not a non-shedding breed. Dachshunds frequently shed lightly throughout the year, and they may shed heavier at the beginning of the spring and fall when their seasonal coat changes. Generally, Dachshunds do not require frequent professional grooming, but regular brushing to remove dead hair is beneficial. Proper nutrition, including healthy fats and omega fatty acids, can also increase the plushness of their coat and help reduce shedding.
Dachshunds are typically fed a balanced diet of commercially manufactured premium quality dry dog food along with occasional table scraps and treats. Their diet should be designed to provide them with all the necessary vitamins and minerals to maintain good health and vitality. A well-balanced diet for these active dogs should include proteins for muscle development, fats for energy and whole grains and carbohydrates for fiber. Omega-3 fatty acids are important for skin and coat health, so they should have access to a source such as salmon oil. Additionally, Dachshunds need access to fresh, clean water daily.
Dachshunds require special attention. They are energetic and lively dogs, so they need proper exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization. Additionally, their spinal issues can cause them to be prone to back problems, so owners should be extra careful when lifting and carrying them. It is also important to feed them food that is appropriate for their size and activity level and take them to regular vet visits to monitor their health. Lastly, Dachshunds can benefit from positive reinforcement-based training to help them become more confident, obedient, and social.
Dachshunds are known for being small, but whether they're considered big dogs can depend on the context. While their average size is fairly petite, typically between 11 to 32 pounds when fully grown, they come in standard, miniature, and even extra miniature varieties, so there can be quite a bit of variation between individuals. Additionally, their long and low bodies with short legs can give them an impression of size that is larger than what can be objectively measured.
It might be surprising, but yes, Dachshunds typically enjoy swimming. While they don't have webbed feet like some of their canine counterparts, Dachshunds usually find splashing around and cooling off in the pool or lake a pleasant experience. That said, it's important to monitor their activity when in the water, as their usually low, long body can make it difficult for them to stay afloat.
Dachshunds can be a great option for first-time owners. They are known for being friendly, loyal and full of personality. Dachshunds are relatively small dogs, and they don't require a lot of exercise, making them an ideal choice for people who have limited living space or don't have a lot of extra time to devote to taking them for long walks. Plus, they tend to get along well with both children and other pets. Their short hair also means they require minimal grooming and effort in terms of keeping them looking their best.
The exact number of minutes you need to dedicate to training your Dachshunds per day can vary depending on their age and the skills you are trying to teach them. Young puppies, for example, may need closer to 15-20 minutes a day, whereas an adult dog may only need about 5-10 minutes per day for basic obedience commands. However, if you are looking to do more extensive training, such as trick commands and agility, then you should plan to dedicate more time, generally at least 30 minutes per day.
