Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are small, resilient, loyal, and smart dogs. They have long, low-slung bodies and short legs, making them excellent indoor companion animals. Dachshunds have a bold but trusting nature. They are known for being curious and brave, despite their small size. While they tend to be stubborn, they also love to be with their family and often enjoy playing and cuddling. Dachshunds are incredibly trainable and enjoy learning basic tricks, such as rolling over and sitting.
While Dachshunds do not shed in abundance like other breeds, they are far from being considered non-shedding. With consistent brushing and regular grooming, Dachshunds will typically shed only a small amount of hair. That said, it’s important to recognize that these dogs do naturally lose a moderate amount of fur. Shedding may depend on individual genetics, diet, and environment. It’s possible that outdoor dogs, or those more active during spring and summer, may shed more than those who stay indoors.
Dachshunds have sensitive digestive systems and specific nutritional needs, so it's important to feed them a high-quality food. Many experts recommend a diet of premium dry kibble that is especially formulated for small and miniature breeds. Look for a kibble that is tailored to active, young dogs and contains a mixture of proteins, carbohydrates, healthy fats, probiotics, vitamins, minerals, omega fatty acids, and antioxidants. Avoid generic grain-based kibbles and any formulas with artificial colors, fillers, or by-products, which can be difficult to digest and cause digestive problems.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund requires commitment, patience, and dedication. Start by establishing house rules like where your pup can and cannot go, as well as which behaviours you'll be rewarding and punishing. Create a consistent daily routine that involves providing nutritious food, plenty of exercise, and time for mental stimulation. Establish a toilet training plan and stick to it, as well as regular vet checkups and vaccinations. Make sure you're also providing plenty of positive reinforcement and healthy outlets for their energy.
The size of your Dachshund puppy will depend upon the particular breed and bloodline. Standard Dachshunds typically weigh between 16 and 32 pounds and have a size range of 8-9 inches at the shoulder when full grown. Miniature Dachshunds usually fall into the toy breed size and weigh up to 11 pounds with a shoulder height of 5-6 inches. Ultimately, there is no one-size-fits-all answer as each pup will reach its own unique size, so it's best to talk to the breeder about an estimated size.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are well known for being energetic and playful. They have a strong need for activity and exercise, and they thrive in an environment where they will get regular playtime and walks. They require a lot of physical activity and need more than just a few short potty breaks a day to get rid of their excess energy. Not surprisingly, they have even been known to outlast their human family members in agility and endurance activities.
Dachshunds are intelligent, feisty little dogs that are a great choice for many families. These loyal and affectionate dogs form strong attachments to their owners, and they can make wonderful pets if trained properly. Dachshunds are known for being excellent watchdogs due to their bark and alertness. They require fairly little exercise, so they are perfect for homes with limited outdoor space or busy lifestyles. They may not be the best choice for homes with small children, as their low-riding bodies and long spinal cords are quite delicate.
The amount of time you need to spend training your Dachshund will depend on their age and breed. Generally, younger Dachshunds will need more training compared to older ones and working, or active, breeds will require more exercise than those bred for show. Ideally, a Dachshund should be training for at least 30 minutes to an hour each day. This could be walking, playing fetch, learning new skills, or performing flyball/agility exercises.
