Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are members of the Hound Group in the American Kennel Club. They are smal, long-bodied dogs with short legs and are part of the Sausage Dog breed family. Typically, they have a lively, curious and brave personality, and a courageous attitude. They were initially bred to hunt badgers and small mammals and have a reputation for being vigorous and feisty. Dachshunds are clever and inquisitive, with strong senses of smell and hearing which makes them a great sniffer and tracker.
Dachshunds do not have an undercoat which is one of the most significant factors when it comes to shedding of a fur. Even though they shed somewhat throughout the year and during certain times of the seasonal change more than others, their shed-factor is much lower than other breeds. Dachshunds work particularly well for people with allergies to pet dander due to the minimal shedding and the smooth single layer coat. Generally, people who want a low shedding dog find that Dachshunds are great choice to consider.
Dachshunds need a properly balanced diet just like other breeds. Look for food that is designed specifically for small breeds and is made with quality real meat as the primary ingredient. This will provide your pup with the protein, fat, and other macro and micronutrients they need to maintain energy and good health. The protein amounts should be between 18 and 25%. Also, make sure to look for foods that include Omega-3 and 6 fatty acids, glucosamine, probiotics, and chelated minerals. These minerals help ensure your pup receives optimal nutrition with every bite.
Being the best puppy parent for your Dachshund requires dedication and diligence. The first step is ensuring your pup is fed a nutritious diet—regular meals mixed with nutritious treats and a balanced vitamin plan as needed. Keeping your puppy active is also essential for their well-being, so making sure they have plenty of playtime and daily exercise is non-negotiable. Additionally, socialization is key for properly-raised puppies, so make sure they're getting time to interact with other people and animals appropriate for their age.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally considered small dogs. Weighing in at just 11-32 pounds, a full-grown Dachshund is considered one of the smallest dog breeds. Standing at 8-9 inches tall, these adorable dogs sport long, low bodies and short legs that help keep them close to the ground. Their size makes them an ideal companion pet for busy urban environments, or a lap-dog for the more leisurely lifestyle.
It is possible to take your Dachshund running with you, but should be done with some considerations. Dachshunds are short-legged and long-bodied dogs, making them less than ideal for running. They are susceptible to spinal and joint problems like Intervertebral Disc Disease which can be exacerbated by excessive running. You should first consult with your veterinarian to make sure it is safe for your particular Dachshund to run, as different Dachshunds may have different tolerance for running.
Generally, Dachshunds can get along quite well with other pets. However, there may be some instances where an initial introduction needs to be done slowly and cautiously. It is important to remember that every animal is unique, and so its reaction to another pet may be different. Depending on the other pet's size, age, and personality, it may take time for the two animals to become comfortable and develop a friendship. It's important to supervise the introduction and provide plenty of positive reinforcement for both animals to help the process go smoothly.
Dachshunds are generally considered to be intelligent and are often considered very trainable and sensitive to their human's needs. They are known as "clever little dogs" and often love to please their owners. In terms of intelligence, Dachshunds are typically agile, have good problem-solving skills, and remember tasks and commands relatively quickly. Dachshunds are also known for their loyalty, which is a trait related to intelligence, in some cases.
