Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are known for their signature torpedo-shaped bodies and comical personalities. Perhaps the most interesting thing about these flat-footed pups is their incredible versatility. Dachshunds come in a variety of sizes, from the extra small dwarf size to the standard miniature size, as well as three distinct coat types. They also have an impressive array of talents which include competing in agility and lure coursing, scent and tracking work and are popular companion animals for therapy work and even for providing rodent control.
Although Dachshunds are not considered a non-shedding breed, they do shed less than average and require less maintenance than other breeds. This makes them ideal pets for people who are looking for a low-shedding breed or a small companion breed. When it comes to grooming, they may require weekly brushing to keep their coats looking healthy and maintaining a regular coat care schedule for a Dachshund will help reduce shedding. Typically, Dachshunds do require more frequent grooming than a non-shedding breed.
Dachshunds are happiest when they’re receiving a high-quality diet that’s specifically designed for their size and breed. Your pup should consume a balanced diet made up of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and water. Unprocessed dog food such as high-quality kibble or fresh products can be fed. Be sure to count the calories and feed your dachshund at regular mealtimes.
A great way to prepare your home for a new Dachshund is to create a comfortable living space for them. Make sure your furniture is puppy-proofed, place child gates in stairways, provide them with a cozy place to sleep and bedding that can be easily replaced, and purchase necessary supplies such as a leash and collar. Clean and puppy-proof areas where they will spend time, such as the living room and bedroom.
Dachshunds are available in a variety of sizes. The American Kennel Club recognizes two sizes, standard and miniature. Standard Dachshunds typically weigh up to 32 pounds, and measure around 8 to 9 inches from the shoulder. Miniature Dachshunds usually weigh 11 pounds or less, and measure less than 5 to 6 inches from the shoulder. There is also a rabbit variety which is even smaller, weighing only up to 7 pounds and measuring 4-5 inches in height. Additionally, there are miniature and standard Dachshunds with long and short coats.
Yes, many Dachshunds love to swim! Swimming provides natural physical movement and relief, perfect for the Dachshund's long, slender body. It also gives them a chance to cool off during hot summer days, and it can even be fun for them. Some Dachshunds may take a few attempts before they feel comfortable, so it's important to be patient and offer plenty of encouragement. However, some Dachshunds do decide that they don't like to swim, so it's important to always pay attention to your pet's signals.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are a great choice for first-time pet owners as they are loyal, friendly, and easy to train. Not only are they a relatively low-maintenance breed, they are also small in size, making them perfect for houses that may be limited on space. Additionally, due to their loving and affectionate nature, they are a great addition to any family. Dachshunds are also relatively quiet, rarely ever barking or getting too noisy.
Dachshunds are often thought of as intelligent dogs, and with good reason. Their reputation for being cunning, loyal, and trainable is well-earned. With proper training and socialization, they can be obedient, eager learners and problem solvers. They have a deep capacity for understanding and loyalty. They also have a natural curiosity and playful energy that can make them especially perceptive to their environment and human companions. They are particularly susceptible to positive reinforcement techniques and can be trained to obey a wide variety of commands. As with any breed, however, proper training is key.
