Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are delightful, loyal, and sometimes stubborn dogs that are loyal to their owners. They are well known for their long, low body shape and short legs. Dachshunds are usually quite mischievous and love to explore and are known for their curiosity. Because of this, a significant amount of daily exercise is important for them to stay healthy and happy. They do best with a secure and well-established routine. Dachshunds require regular brushing, claw clipping, and ear cleanings.
Dachshunds have a unique coat that is usually short, sleek, and water-resistant. An adult dachshund's coat may be anywhere from black, tan, red, cream, silver, and grey. The variation depends on the breed and age of the dog. While some dachshunds have long hair, others may have short, straight, or wiry coats. Regardless of the specific type of coat, all Dachshunds possess a double coat – an oily, water-resistant topcoat and a thick, soft undercoat.
Dachshunds generally need a diet that is balanced in carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and fats to maintain their health and active lifestyle. Specifically, Dachshunds should receive a combination of high-quality dry and wet dog foods, as well as occasional treats like fruits, vegetables, eggs, and dairy products. They should not be given too many human foods as treats because these can lead to health issues like obesity and upset stomach.
Before bringing your new Dachshund home, it's important to prepare your home for their arrival. Make sure that any furniture or areas they can access are pet proofed remove any small objects like toys, decorations, and even houseplants that could become choking hazards. Research safe pet fencing and boundary systems that would keep them safe if they are outside. Baby safety gates are a great way to make sure your Dachshund sticks to the areas that you determine.
Dachshunds are often considered a small-sized breed of dogs. Generally speaking, their size ranges from 16 inches at the shoulder for a standard size dog, down to approximately 12 inches for a miniature dachshund. Of course, this can vary quite a bit among different dachshunds, depending on their specific breeding and other factors. All dachshunds have a long body and short legs, which gives them an often "cute" and distinctive look.
Dachshunds are quite active little dogs, so they require regular exercise to stay fit and healthy. Depending on the age of the dog, their daily needs may vary. A puppy will require about two hours of exercise per day, including a playtime as well as physical activity such as a walk or a jog. For adults, a minimum of an hour of exercise is recommended per day. Exercise is important to keep them mentally stimulated and can include walking or playing fetch outdoors, or even interacting with other dogs.
Dachshunds can often be a great choice for families that have children. With attentive care, devoted owners, and socialization, many Dachshunds get along quite well with kids. Proper socialization, especially during the pup's early years, is key in nurturing a pup that grows up to be good-natured and tolerant. And even though their small build may give the impression that they use aggression to protect themselves, a well-behaved Dachshund should be cautious and curious rather than anxious or fearful.
Training your Dachshund requires patience, consistency, and the right approach. Begin by establishing yourself as a positive leader and encouraging desired behaviors through positive reinforcement and consistency. Start by introducing your pup to basic commands like "sit", "come", and "stay", rewarding your pup with a treat or petting. You can also teach tricks such as "shake" or "roll over". Set aside several 10-15 minute training sessions each day, and eventually your pup will be better able to retain what you are teaching them.
