Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are known for their “hot-dog” shape and silly personalities, and there are lots of fun facts to be found about them! They have been around since medieval times, and were bred as hunting dogs. Dachshunds have a unique body structure that enables them to both move quickly and burrow deep into tight spots, which made them excellent ratters and badger hunters.
Managing allergies when living with a Dachshund can be tricky. One way to prevent allergies is to groom with dander-free products. Vacuuming regularly and washing pet bedding on a weekly basis can also help. Additionally, regular veterinary visits are important for early detection and diagnosing of common allergies in Dachshunds. If your pet is prescribed any medication, be sure to administer the correct dosage as prescribed. Finally, if you are still struggling to manage your allergies, speak to an allergist to identify potential environmental triggers.
Dachshunds are small, smart, and loyal dog breeds, but how should you properly feed them? Dachshunds need to consume a balanced and nutritious diet that is high in protein and essential nutrients that will help them to maintain their energy and stay in top health. A good quality dry dog food made for small breeds is often recommended as the best option for these active dogs. Additionally, Dachshunds will benefit from having access to fresh water that is changed regularly and a few tasty treats or human-grade veggies here and there.
Preparation for a new Dachshund should include planning and gathering the supplies you'll need for the pup. Start by researching what type of food, treats and platforms to use for feeding, and what type of training works best for the breed. Prepare for your pup's arrival by setting up a safe and comfortable environment in your home. You'll want to purchase a bed, crate, toys, a collar, and some sort of leash or harness. Make sure your home is puppy proofed; address any safety issues, and ensure there are no hazards that could potentially harm your pup.
Dachshunds typically come in two sizes: standard and miniature. Standard Dachshunds usually weigh 16 to 32 pounds and can be quite long, typically 18-20 inches from the front of their chest to the back of their hindquarters. The miniature Dachshunds are much smaller than their standard size counterparts, measuring no more than 11 pounds and typically about 10 inches in length. Other than size, there is no major difference between the two sizes, other than overall size.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running! It is a great way to both get some exercise and to bond with your canine companion--just remember to take it slow at first, especially if your dog is younger or not used to running yet. Start small with a few minutes at a time, and gradually increase the amount of time and distance as your pup builds up endurance.
Yes, Dachshunds can definitely get along well with children. These dogs are generally friendly, loyal, and affectionate with all members of the family; however, they can sometimes be protective of their owners, so it is important to provide positive and consistent interaction between adults and children to help the dog learn good social behavior. Along with proper guidance and supervision, Dachshunds should do fine with children. Furthermore, their playful nature and moderate size make them an ideal companion for older kids, so long as they are taught to be gentle around the smaller dog.
Training a Dachshund requires patience, consistency, and rewards lots of rewards! The best way to train your Dachshund is to keep your sessions short and focused and offer plenty of positive reinforcement. Start by teaching basic obedience through rewards. Say the command in a firm voice and, when your Dachshund completes the command, reward him/her with a treat or praise. You should also take your Dachshund for regular walks and playtime to tire him/her out and help ensure he listens to commands.
