Questions & Answers
Dachshunds have been popularized for being brave and fiercely loyal dogs. But did you know that they come in a variety of colors and patterns, including wire-haired, long-haired and smooth-haired? Dachshunds are also known for being incredibly intelligent and eager to please their owners. And, their unique shape gives them an advantage when burrowing their way through tunnels and other tight spaces.
It depends on the individual's sensitivities to certain allergens. While it's possible for a dachshund to cause an allergic reaction, it isn't guaranteed. Some individuals may find that dander, saliva, or other secretions from the animal will cause an allergic reaction. Individuals should consult an allergist if they suspect they will have an allergic reaction before adopting a dachshund. Additionally, regular grooming and vacuuming can help to reduce allergen levels, and thus the chances of an allergic reaction.
Yes, Dachshunds do have some special dietary needs. They have a tendency to gain weight easily so portion and calorie control are important considerations in their diets. Dachshunds are also prone to specific health conditions like pancreatitis, bladder stones and susceptibility to fatty acid deficiencies, all of which require catering their meals to meet their specific needs. Giving them food with higher percentage of protein, low fat and fewer carbohydrates, as well as a supplement of unsaturated fatty acids is recommended to maintain their health.
Yes, Dachshunds do have special requirements due to their unique proportions and dainty stature. Their long bodies created a risk for spinal issues, so these canines should never be allowed to play, jump, or climb stairs on their own. Additionally, their short legs require softer bedding when they sleep, and it's important to limit their exercise to short daily walks; too much running around can cause strain on their backs. Due to their small size, these dogs can also have issues maintaining normal body temperature, so they need appropriate protection when outside in cold and wet weather.
Dachshunds come in two sizes standard and miniature. The standard size runs an average of 8-9 inches tall and weigh up to 32 pounds, while the miniature size is 5-6 inches tall and weighs up to 11 pounds. The other size option is called the Kaninchen, or Rabbit, and this variety is between miniature and standard in size with an average height of 6-7 inches and weighing 11-16 pounds. Whatever size you go for, these little dogs are full of personality and sure to become a beloved member of your family!
Absolutely! Taking your Dachshund running is a great way to give your pup a good workout and help them stay healthy. It can be a lot of fun for both of you and provides some quality time outdoors. Before taking your Dachshund running, it's important to make sure they are in good physical condition and that all of their vaccinations are up to date. You also want to make sure they are wearing a harness and are either on a leash or within a fenced area. Additionally, consider the terrain and the temperature to make sure it's suitable for your pup.
Generally, Dachshunds get along well with other pets if given the opportunity to socialize from an early age. It's important to note, however, that, like all dogs, Dachshunds may have their own unique personalities. Some Dachshunds may be more aloof and unfriendly towards other animals, while others may be more accepting and comfortable around other pets. It's best to introduce any new pet to a Dachshund in a controlled manner so it can become accustomed to the presence of other animals.
Training a Dachshund may be challenging since they are smarter than many people realize. They are independent thinkers and are quick to learn, making them the perfect breed for people who have the time to patiently train them. They have a thick exterior and may not be responsive to commands immediately, but with patience and consistency, they can learn a variety of commands and tricks. They are naturally loyal, which makes them easier to train, and they are also prone to barking which can be useful as well as something to control.
