Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a small, short-legged breed of dog that was originally bred to hunt badgers and other small animals. They have a long, muscular body featuring a long head and powerful jaws with an elongated muzzle allowing them to reach small animals in narrow crevices. Their short legs give them an advantage when hunting, as it makes them low to the ground and enables them to dig quickly and efficiently. They also have long, droopy ears, and a tail that is often curved over the back.
It is possible that Dachshunds could cause someone to have allergies, although it is not the breed itself that triggers reactions. People may have allergic reactions to dog dander, urine and saliva, as well as the proteins in animal fur, all of which can be considered allergens regardless of the breed of the dog. In other words, the possibility of allergies is related to the individual's allergic response to things the Dachshund may carry, rather than anything to do with the breed itself.
Dachshunds are a breed of small-statured hounds that have a big appetite; they can eat a variety of different food items. A balanced diet for a Dachshund should include high-quality protein sources like beef, poultry, fish, and eggs, as well as healthy carbohydrates like potatoes and oatmeal. Healthy fats can be supplied in the form of olive oil or other omega fatty acids.
Before you bring home a Dachshund, it is important to make sure you have all of the essentials needed for a happy, healthy companion. A few items you may want to consider purchasing include a collar and tag with your contact information, a bed with comfortable blankets, a playpen or crate for safe sleeping, high quality food and dishes, poop bags and a scooper, dog treats, a stiff or flexible brush to prevent tangles and a grooming comb. You may also want to purchase a few toys and interactive puzzle toys to keep your new pup entertained.
Dachshunds are often considered small or medium-sized dogs, but it really depends on their size, build and physical attributes. Generally, they are pretty short-legged, long-bodied, and weigh anywhere between 11 and 32 pounds when fully grown. Although they may be little compared to some larger breeds like German Shepherds, their personality and spirit are huge, which leads many to consider them big dogs. In terms of their presence, many people consider them larger than life, even if they don't necessarily take up a lot of physical space.
It depends on your specific Dachshund's age, size, and fitness level, but as a general rule, Dachshunds should get at least 30 minutes of quality walk time a day, preferably split into two shorter walks. As their fitness levels improve, you may be able to increase the number of minutes. It is also essential to provide your Dachshund with plenty of opportunities to explore, sniff, and play in between walks. Not only will this provide them with healthy physical activity, but it will also have a beneficial social-emotional effect for your pup.
Yes, Dachshunds usually do very well with kids, provided they are raised and socialized together in a positive environment. Dachshunds are inquisitive and friendly dogs, who bond quickly with their family, making them excellent family pets. They are known to be loyal and protective of their families too. Kids should be taught to respect and treat their pet kindly, and interacting with the dog in a calm and gentle manner. Kids should also never be left unsupervised with the pet.
Training a Dachshund requires patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. It's important to express clear expectations from the start and practice regularly to reinforce good habits. Start by familiarizing your Dachshund with basic commands in a quiet place at home. Positively reward good behaviors and avoid punishment or criticism while training. Gradually lead to more challenging commands like walking on a leash or learning "stay”. You may also want to try Agility classes that focus on physical exercise and cognitive tasks to build your Dachshund's stimulation and trust.
