Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a Hound-group breed that originate from Germany. They have long, low-riding bodies and are particularly well-suited for hunting small animals like rabbits and badgers. Dachshunds are fiercely loyal to their owner and can quickly become a part of the family. Additionally, they come in a variety of sizes and colors and are easy to groom. Dachshunds are known for their unique appearance and intelligence, making them a popular choice amongst dog lovers.
The Dachshund coat is short, smooth, and shiny with a tight fitting silhouette. Its coloring varies from shades of red, cream brown, black and tan. The hair may be solid or splashed with other colors. This breed was created for work and therefore has a double layer coat to protect it from bad weather. Its outer coat is hard and straight, while the undercoat is softer and thicker. The Dachshund's coat should be brushed regularly to keep it glossy, free from mats and tangles. Age and stress level can also affect the coat's condition.
Dachshunds are active and fun-loving dogs that need an appropriate diet to stay happy and healthy. Generally, they should be fed two to three times a day with high quality commercial dog food specifically made for their size and adult life stage. Other healthy options may also be fed as part of a balanced diet, such as lean meats, fish, fresh vegetables, fruit, and grains. Additionally, Dachshunds may benefit from supplements like probiotics to help support a healthy GI tract and omega-3 fatty acid to support healthy skin and coat.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund is an exciting endeavor! To help ensure the pup's safety and comfort, make sure any floor-level spaces, such as under the bed, are blocked off as they could be a potential hazard to the pup. We recommend also setting up a designated area in the home, such as a puppy pen or crate that's just for this pup; this will give it a safe space to feel comfortable in and call its own.
Dachshunds come in two size ranges: standard and miniature. The body size of a standard Dachshund can range between 8 to 11 inches at the shoulder compared to the miniature which ranges between 5 to 6 inches at the shoulder. Depending on the size range, Dachshunds can be considered big or small. However, due to their deep chest and short legs, they look bigger than their actual height would suggest.
Dachshunds are an intelligent, lively, and active breed with surprising agility and endurance. They need regular exercise to stay mentally and physically stimulated, healthy, and happy, and the amount of exercise they need is determined by their age, size, and activity level. Daily walks of 20-30 minutes at a minimum are recommended for adult Dachshunds, but it's important to make sure these walks are done in safe, open areas. Puppies need less walking, although short, frequent walks of a few minutes a day can also help them stay fit and healthy.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds can get along with children and often make excellent family pets. With the right training and socialization, they can develop strong, healthy relationships, playing fetch and amusing kids with their often silly behaviors. When introducing a Dachshund to a home with kids, it's important to make sure to keep an eye on the interaction between the two. It's also important for children to learn proper, gentle handling techniques.
Training a Dachshund can be very rewarding, although it does require dedication and patience. The intelligence and stubbornness of the breed can make it both easy and difficult to train, depending on the individual. First and foremost, it's important to establish yourself as a leader by providing guidance and direction. Being consistent in training is key. Positive reinforcement is also a great way to help motivate your Dachshund while training. Giving rewards like treats and praise when they have done the right thing can help encourage further understanding and encourage them to respond more quickly to commands.
