Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are known for their playful personalities and adorable looks, but one of their most interesting features is their long bodies paired with short legs. Unlike other breeds, these dogs have been selectively bred to accommodate their specific purpose of being small enough to fit in underground tunnels while remaining powerful enough to bring down badgers. Their unique form allows them to crawl into tight places and navigate long distances in short periods of time, making them an efficient hunter. Additionally, their long, low bodies can reach far into their homes to find and inspect objects beneath furniture and other obstacles.
Dachshunds have a variety of coat types, including shorthaired, wirehaired, and longhaired. The shorthaired coat is short, smooth, and sometimes slightly wavy, while the wirehaired coat is short, thick, and wiry. The longhaired coat is smooth and silky, with longer fur on the ears, legs, chest, and tail. The color of the coat varies greatly among Dachshunds, with many being a single solid color, an even mix of two colors, as well as having patches of a third color.
Although Dachshunds are generally known to be hearty eaters, there are certain items that pet owners should absolutely avoid feeding them. Grapes, raisins, currants, onions, garlic, avocado, and macadamia nuts can all cause vomiting and diarrhea, and can even lead to potentially fatal internal damage. Foods that are high in sugar and fat including candy, cookies, and other snacks should also be kept away from Dachshunds, as they may cause an upset stomach and long-term disorders, such as diabetes.
Yes, Dachshunds do require special needs. Since they are a working breed, Dachshunds need lots of exercise, daily walks and/or runs, playtime, access to outdoors, and mental stimulation. It's important to know their individual exercise needs since some may require less. They require proper nutrition and regular vet checks. Grooming needs vary depending on if you have a short-haired or long-haired Dachshund.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. They measure between 8 and 9 inches tall and typically weigh between 16 and 32 pounds. Dachshunds have long bodies and short legs, making them well-suited to coursing and going to ground. Despite their size, they have very loyal and loving personalities and can fit in with families of all sizes due to their adaptability. Dachshunds typically live between 12 and 16 years, making them great companions for longer periods of time than some of their larger canine counterparts.
Dachshunds are definitely an active dog breed. They require regular exercise and stimulation to keep their bodies and minds healthy. These dogs have plenty of energy and often partake in activities such as hiking, fetching a ball and going on runs with their owners. Dachshunds are also very intelligent and can be trained to compete in agility and other games. While they may be a bit playful and a bit noisy, they are great companions both outdoors and indoors.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are an ideal breed for families with kids. They are known for their sociable, outgoing nature, as well as their playful and loyal temperament. Dachshunds are friendly towards children and make great playmates. Additionally, they are playful and adaptable, so they can fit any family dynamic. When given proper training and socialization, they are unlikely to exhibit aggressive behavior, and are generally willing to obey commands.
Training a Dachshund can be a challenging and rewarding experience. The most important thing to keep in mind is to be consistent and patient when training your pup. Start with shorter, more frequent training sessions to give your pup time to learn new behaviors and work up from there. Reward your Dachshund with treats and positive verbal reinforcement for any successful commands. Ensure that commands, such as 'sit', 'stay’, and 'come' are used in the same consistent way each time and gradually increase the duration for these behaviors.
