Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are often lovingly referred to as "wiener dogs," or "sausage dogs," owing to their long, slim body shape. Though they were originally bred to hunt badgers and other burrowing animals, the breed’s keen sense of smell and short legs still make them fantastic truffle hunters. Dachshunds were used to hunt down and ferret out animals they were bred to pursue, making them naturals at agility competitions. Additionally, unlike other breeds, Dachshunds have two varieties wirehaired, and smooth.
The coat of a Dachshund is usually short, smooth and glossy in texture. It can come in a variety of colors like red, black and tan, chocolate, cream, and gray. The essential features of the breed's traditional coat are that it should be short, thick, and even. Their coat can help protect them from extreme weather conditions. They need regular brushing and combing to keep it looking its best. The most important part of coat care is regular nail trimming. This is essential for the health of the breed, as overgrown nails can become painful.
Dachshunds should not be fed raisins, grapes, onions, chives, garlic, chocolate, macadamia nuts, sugar, high-fat foods, uncooked bones, or anything with too much salt as these foods are all toxic and can be very dangerous to the health of your Dachshund. It is also important to be aware that Dachshunds do not usually have the same size teeth as their other canine counterparts so hard pieces of food may not be appropriate as they can cause irritation and be difficult for the Dachshund to digest.
Yes, Dachshunds do have special requirements. Because of their unique long, lean build they require daily exercise to prevent musculoskeletal problems that can occur without regular movement. They are also prone to excessive barking and chewing, so providing mental stimulation such as games and puzzles are key to keeping them content. Because of their bold attitude, Dachshunds require consistent socialization and basic obedience training to learn how to properly interact with other animals and humans.
Dachshunds can be considered big dogs in relation to other small breeds but generally they are regarded as medium-sized dogs. Though Dachshunds don't reach the same overall size as larger breeds, their long body and short legs gives them a large appearance. Compared to other dogs in the same weight category, such as Chihuahuas and Bulldogs, Dachshunds tend to appear bigger. They have an even spread of weight to function effectively when moving and are muscular and strong, so they are not limited in their activities by their size.
Every dog is different, so there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of how many minutes per day you should walk your Dachshund. However, most experts recommend that an adult Dachshund should exercise for 30 minutes to an hour a day, with two or three walks a day being ideal. This can vary depending on age, health, and activity level, so use your best judgement and work closely with your veterinarian to ensure that your pup gets the right amount of physical activity.
Dachshunds are a great choice for a family dog. Thanks to their gentle and loving nature, these intelligent dogs make lovable companions for people of all ages and sizes. They're loyal and devoted to their family and enjoy participating in activities and cuddling up on the couch with their pet parents. Dachshunds may be small in size but they have an enormous amount of energy and can keep up with family members for walks and play time.
Training a Dachshund is an important part of creating a long-lasting bond with your pup. As owners, it is important to establish yourself as the alpha of the pack and provide consistent training which reinforces the rules and your role. To start, identify and practice a few basic commands such as "sit", "down", and "come"; then, gradually increase the difficulty of the commands. Be sure to reward your pup for correct behavior with praise, treats, and games. To ensure success, keep your training sessions short and fun.
