Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are among the most unique and interesting dog breeds! Perhaps the most intriguing thing about them is that they come in two varieties: smooth and wire-haired. The smooth variety requires less grooming, but the wire-haired variety gets the most attention for its ability to hunt small vermin. Another interesting aspect of Dachshunds is their personalities-they have a fiercely independent streak, and they can be playful and mischievous but also affectionate and smart.
The short answer is no, Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic. This does not mean they cannot make good companions for people with allergies, however. Generally speaking, Dachshunds have a moderate level of shedding, meaning that potential allergy sufferers should take regular care of coat upkeep to minimize the amount of fur produced. Additionally, frequent brushing and vacuuming will help keep their fur from becoming airborne, which can further reduce allergic reactions.
Dachshunds eat a variety of foods, based on their age, lifestyle and activity level. A good balance of protein and healthy fats, such as fish, poultry, and eggs, is important. It is also beneficial for Dachshunds to consume vegetables and fruits such as spinach, apples, and carrots. Small amounts of dairy such as cheese or yogurt can benefit coat and skin health. Most Dachshunds do well with a combination of premium dry food and canned food.
Preparing for a new Dachshund requires careful planning. Start by doing research so you understand the needs of the breed, and talk to local veterinarians, trainers, and breeders for advice. You should also set aside time for exercise and potty training. Appoint a space for the Dachshund such as a dog bed and consider purchasing necessary items like leashes, collars, bowls, food, toys, and treats in advance.
It is difficult to say exactly how big your Dachshund puppy will be, as factors such as nutrition and genetics can play a role in their eventual size. Generally, Dachshunds will reach mature heights between 5-9 inches and weigh between 16-32 pounds when full grown. Of course, this is just a suggestion and your Dachshund may differ. As you watch your puppy grow, don't forget to feed them quality food and provide them with ample exercise to ensure they reach their full size potential.
Dachshunds need approximately the same amount of exercise as other breeds that are similar in size. Exercise requirements can vary depending on age, health, and activity level, but generally speaking, Dachshunds should exercise for a minimum of 30 minutes per day. Regular, daily exercise is essential for Dachshunds to stay physically fit and even more important for them to remain mentally stimulated. Controlled walks are best for Dachshunds, and they should always be kept on a leash due to their prey drive.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds are an excellent choice of dog for a family with children. While Dachshunds tend to have a bit of a stubborn streak and can take a bit of extra training to help them understand the rules of the house, they are an absolutely loyal and loving pet that can greatly enrich the life of a child. They are also well known for their affectionate and playful nature, which makes them particularly inviting to cuddle up with and create strong bonds with family members especially kids.
Dachshunds are considered smart dogs. They are resourceful and clever, as well as loyal to their guardians. They possess the ability to quickly learn commands and respond when their name is called. Dachshunds are renowned for their excellent nose and sense of smell, and can be trained to use these abilities to sniff out scents and report to their owners. They are also good watchdogs, alerting their guardians to people and animals entering their space.
