Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a small breed of hound originating in Germany, and are classified as either standard, miniature, or kaninchen (rabbit) in size. As a loyal and friendly companion, these spunky dogs are often referred to as 'sausage dogs' or 'wiener dogs' due to their elongated bodies and short legs. These affectionate and family-oriented dogs can be found in many coat patterns and colors, including smooth, long-haired, and wire-haired varieties.
Dachshunds have a unique double coat that is both soft and wiry. The topcoat is usually straight and dense, while the undercoat is short and thick. This distinct coat gives the Dachshund their iconic look, with a long body, short legs, and short muzzle. The coat may also come in various colors and patterns, such as red and brown, and even multi-colored dapples. It is also common for Dachshunds to have tan markings on their faces and legs, giving them an extra endearing look.
Dachshunds can consume a wide range of food, depending on age and activity level. Generally, it is best to feed adult Dachshunds a high-quality dry dog food that contains high-quality meat as the first ingredient, supplemented with other ingredients for a balanced diet. Puppies require a special puppy food that can provide them with the protein and calcium they need for strong bones and healthy muscles. If you want to give a Dachshund a special treat, there are several good options available that are designed for small breeds.
Yes, Dachshunds do have particular requirements that must be met to ensure their optimal health and happiness. Proper daily exercise, a healthy diet, routine veterinary check-ups and preventive care are all essential for a healthy, balanced life. They also require mental stimulation, socialization and grooming. Additionally, they can be prone to back problems so may require specific bedding and extra care in activities such as jumping. Lastly, being prone to separation anxiety, consistent structure and plenty of love and attention is important for these social, loyal animals.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally considered small dogs. Dachshunds have short legs and long backs, giving them their distinctive silhouette. They typically weigh anywhere between 16 and 32 pounds, with miniature Dachshunds weighing less than 11 pounds. As a result of their size and long bodies, Dachshunds are perfectly suited for small indoor living, or a modest outdoor space. They are also well-suited for travel, as they are quite portable. Despite being small, they are still energetic and ready for any adventure!
The amount of exercise that your Dachshund requires each day should be tailored to his age, size, breed, and health. While smaller dogs generally require less, a good rule of thumb is to give your Dachshund at least 30 minutes of exercise per day. This can be in the form of going for a walk around your neighborhood, playing in the park, or even going for a light jog. To ensure your Dachshund is getting the right amount of exercise, take into account their overall energy level and enthusiasm for activity.
Yes, Dachshunds can be a great choice for first-time owners. They are generally very loyal family dogs and while they are brave and not afraid to bark at strangers, they are also generally quite affectionate and often described as being very attached to their owners. They usually do not require a lot of grooming and can be good with children as long as they are raised with them. They might also require more exercise than other breeds and can be difficult to housetrain, so first-time owners should be aware that there may be some challenges with having a Dachshund.
Dachshunds are intelligent and have been known to learn commands and tricks quickly. While they may not be considered among the 'smartest' breeds, they have an independent spirit, a strong will, and a keen sense of curiosity, which allows them to learn quickly. Dachshunds can be taught basic obedience, such as sit, stay, and come. They also have an innate ability to sense when something is wrong or when their owners are feeling down, which is why they often make excellent therapy dogs.
