Some fun facts about Dachshunds include that their low and long body shape was created to help them fit into badger holes while they hunt, they come in a variety of colors and coat types, and they love to bark. While most people think of Dachshunds as small dogs, they actually come in two sizes: standard and miniature.
Generally speaking, owning a Dachshund should not cause you to have allergies. While all pets can contribute to allergy symptoms, there are a few things to keep in mind when it comes to Dachshunds. If an individual has dog allergies, the potential for an allergic reaction to a Dachshund exists. However, dander and fur from a Dachshund can unlikely be the primary cause of aggravating allergies; the primary cause, depending on the individual, could be pollen, dust, smoke or other airborne pollutants and not the pet itself.
As an owner of a Dachshund, you should make sure to feed it a diet specifically designed for the breed. High-quality, nutritious food is essential to ensure your dog remains healthy. Consider finding a commercial, balanced dry or wet food that contains chicken, fish, or beef in it. It should also have Omega-3 fatty acids for maintaining a healthy coat and skin, and sufficient fiber for a healthy digestive system. Aim for a food with natural ingredients and no artificial preservatives or colorings.

They will benefit greatly from regular trips outdoors on off-leash dog walks or supervised play in a safe, fenced-in area. They are also known for being stubborn, so consistent and structured training sessions from a young age are important to minimize problem behaviors. Dachshunds can be prone to obesity, so it's essential to feed them appropriately for their size and restrict portions.

Its short stature, long body, and short legs give it a unique look that makes it a popular pet. While its size may have caused people to label it as a "toy" breed, it still has the personality and energy of a larger dog. It's small size makes it ideal for living in an apartment, travelling, or just snuggling close for a nap!
A healthy and happy Dachshund needs just the right amount of exercise to stay fit and agile. The exact amount of exercise will depend on the age and condition of your Dachshund. Generally, a good rule of thumb is to allow your Dachshund to walk for at least 30 minutes every day; if your Dachshund is young and active, then increase the amount of time to around 45-60 minutes a day. Do make sure to monitor your Dachshund’s physical state before, during, and after the walk.
Yes, Dachshunds are great family dogs. They are very friendly and affectionate, and when properly socialized, they get along well with children. Dachshunds are trainable and can even be taught tricks. Generally, they are very loyal companions and are devoted to their owners. Moreover, they are small enough to fit comfortably inside a home but also energetic enough to keep up with the family during outdoor activities.
Dachshunds are a highly intelligent breed of dog! They're incredibly alert, lively, and engaged in their environment. They have a keen sense of smell and can sense danger. They also possess an eagerness to please, making them highly trainable and making the learning process easier than other breeds.
