Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a lively and long-bodied breed of dog known as a "sausage dog" in many parts of the world. It comes in two size varieties the standard dachshund and the miniature dachshund that were originally bred to hunt badger and other burrowing animals. With a friendly and mischievous disposition, the Dachshund loves its human companions and is known for being a generally obedient breed.
The Dachshund coat is always short and smooth with variations seen in color, pattern, and length. The coloring may range from solid colors like red, black or tan, or may also have two colors such as a brindle pattern. The coats may also be wire haired or long-haired. The wire-haired coats are usually wiry, thick, and often have a beard or eyebrows, whereas the long-haired coats are longer, softer and have feathering on the ears, legs and chest.
When considering the best dog food for Dachshunds, it's important to look for brands that offer complete nutrition and are specifically designed for small dogs. To ensure your pup is getting the best nutrition possible, look for a dog food formula that is made from high quality, natural ingredients and is free from fillers. Additionally, add supplements as needed for joint support and overall health. Feedings should be portioned throughout the day and should vary depending on age, activity, and current health.
Before you bring your new Dachshund home, you should make sure that you are prepared. This includes researching common health problems and the necessary preventive measures, finding a vet in your area who specializes in small dogs, having the necessary supplies (collar, leash, bed, crates, food and water dishes, toys, treats, and grooming supplies), setting up a safe, secure, and comfortable area in your home for your new pup, and scheduling a routine checkup with your vet.
Dachshunds typically vary in size but typically range from 8 to 9 inches tall at the shoulder when fully grown and weigh between 16 and 32 pounds. You can expect a Dachshund puppy to grow into its full size within four to six months of age but of course may continue to fill out as it grows older. Generally speaking, size depends on the type of Dachshund you have as there are three different varieties; standard, miniature, and now the kaninchen, a smaller "rabbit" size.
Dachshunds need roughly an hour or more of moderate exercise per day. If your Dachshund is a puppy or elderly, then the activity should be kept relatively low-impact, such as short walks or gentle play. If your Dachshund is an adult, then regular walks, jogs, or play sessions can help your dog stay healthy. It's important to remember that all activity should be tailored to your Dachshund's age, health, and energy level.
Dachshunds are generally good with children if they are properly socialized and trained from a young age. However, it is still important to remember that Dachshunds are small dogs which means they can easily be injured by rough-housing. Additionally, while they enjoy playing, they can quickly become over-stimulated and bark or snap if not properly managed. Therefore, it is important to set clear boundaries with young children who have not been taught proper dog handling skills and ensure that owners supervise their interactions.
Training a Dachshund can be both easy and challenging depending on each individual dog. With the right amount of patience, consistency, reward-based training, and lots of love, they are incredibly smart and often eager to learn. It's important to start with basic obedience, teaching them verbal cues as early as possible and setting boundaries. With these consistent methods, they can easily become obedient and affectionate companions. Additionally, providing mental stimulation through obedience and agility courses, brain games, and chew toys can help ensure their continued obedience and keep them away from destructive habits.
