Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a member of the hound breed of dogs and were originally bred for their good sniffing and hunting abilities. The dogs are often referred to as "wiener dogs" or "sausage dogs" due to their elongated body shape. Additionally, Dachshunds are well-known for their short legs and their plucky, courageous dispositions. Traditionally, Dachshunds come in one of three sizes, including standard, miniature, and toy sizes.
Dachshunds can cause an allergic reaction in some people, but the extent to which this happens varies from person to person. There are certain proteins found in a Dachshund's fur, saliva, and dander that can trigger an allergic reaction in a sensitive individual. Additionally, if your allergies are mostly related to dust or pollen, then having a Dachshund may not trigger a reaction as the proteins are found primarily in their fur and saliva.
Dachshunds were bred as a working breed, so it is important to make sure that your dachshund is getting very high-quality and well-balanced diet. It is best to feed your dachshund a food specifically formulated for their size and breed. Look for foods with natural ingredients, such as lean proteins, fiber-rich carbohydrates, healthy fats, omega fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. These foods also should be easily digestible for your dachshund. Also be mindful of how you feed your dog and how much.
Preparing your home for your new Dachshund is an important step in welcoming your furry friend to their new environment. First, make sure that proofing your home against safety hazards is a priority; remove baby gates if you have any, cover electric and other cords, and make sure that all chemicals and hazardous materials that your pup could ingest are properly stored. Second, provide a comfortable bed in a quiet corner of the house for your pup to retire to after playtime. Third, make sure their diet is set up with the appropriate amount of food and snacks to keep them healthy and happy.
Dachshunds vary in size, so answering the question of whether or not they can be considered a big dog is a subject of personal opinion. For instance, standard Dachshunds usually stand between 8-9 inches and weigh between 16-32 pounds, which is considered smaller than the average size of other breeds. However, the miniature variety of Dachshunds typically stand between 5-6 inches and weigh 11 pounds or less, making them smaller than the standard variety. Ultimately, this makes it difficult to definitively categorize them as a 'big' dog breed.
While it's not a universal truth, Dachshunds typically enjoy taking the plunge and swimming. They are hardy dogs and can be surprisingly strong and agile in the water. It's usually best to start by introducing them to shallow water and slowly let them get accustomed to the sensation and movement of swimming. Even for more experienced swimmers, it's important to help them along by supporting them from below and providing a sense of safety. Swimming can be a great way to relax and have some fun with your Dachshund.
Absolutely! Dachshunds make delightful first-time pets. They are naturally easygoing, loyal, and affectionate. As long as you are prepared to put in the work required for training and exercise, Dachshunds can be ideal for first-time owners. They are naturally independent and can even be a bit stubborn, but as long as you establish a consistent routine, and show respect for your pet's needs, they can make wonderful canine companions. Additionally, they are small enough to be ideal for limited living spaces and they are low-maintenance in terms of grooming.
Dachshunds are known for their intelligence and loyalty. They are highly trainable and able to understand a variety of commands. They are also exceptionally good at problem solving and showing strong levels of intuition. Dachshunds often demonstrate keen observational skills, responding quickly to the moods and cues of their owners and other people they interact with. Generally, they are considered to be friendly and devoted, but some may have a bit of an independent streak. Overall, Dachshunds have been known to be quite smart, making them great pets.
