Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a unique breed of dog that are unparalleled in terms of their appearance, personality, and even their intelligence. Not only are they incredibly cute and cuddly but their shape and personality make them a fun and entertaining pet. One of the most interesting things about Dachshunds is their dig-ability; they have the ability to dig in short bursts that makes them great for tracking and finding underground prey. They have a keen sense of smell that makes them great hunters and also makes them excellent watchdogs.
Dachshunds have a unique and recognizable coat that is usually short and smooth. Most have a single layer of fur, but some may have a slightly longer and thicker double coat. The color variations range from solid colors such as red, black and tan, to unique patterns and combinations of all three. Some may also have more unique mixes of color like brindle, dapple, and sable. The quality of their coat depends on the amount of brushing and grooming they get, as Dachshunds are particularly prone to matting.
Dachshunds are a hardy breed of small to medium-sized dogs that were originally bred to hunt small game. It is important to feed your Dachshund species-appropriate nutrition to ensure their health and wellbeing as a companion pet. The best diet for your Dachshund should consist of a high-quality, natural-based, nutrient-dense food. It should include a balance of proteins, carbohydrates, essential fatty acids and other nutrients that are known to be beneficial to Dachshunds.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund takes patience, commitment and understanding. To get started, research Dachshund behaviour, diet and medical care requirements, to ensure you are providing your pup with the best possible start to life. Ensure you create a safe environment in which your pup can explore and provide socialisation opportunities. Your pup will need lots of consistent training and positive reinforcement to help them develop their behavioural skills and form a lifelong bond.
Dachshunds, or "wiener dogs", come in two sizes; standard and miniature. The standard size typically weighs 16 32 lbs and stands 8 9 inches tall, while the miniature size should weigh no more than 11 lbs and measure 5 6 inches in height. In some cases, the miniature size can also be referred to as the Toy variety. Each size of Dachshund also comes in three coat varieties; smooth, long-haired, and wire-haired. All three varieties come in the standard and miniature size.
Dachshunds, as with all dog breeds, need regular exercise to remain healthy and happy. While smaller than most breeds, Dachshunds are surprisingly active and agile and need plenty of physical activity. Generally speaking, Dachshunds should have at least 30 minutes of exercise a day, with multiple short walks, mixed in with opportunities for running and playing. Even a small yard or warm weather can give them the outlets for exercise they need.
Dachshunds can make wonderful family pets, and they often get along very well with children. Generally, these dogs are friendly, docile, and quite loyal towards their caregivers. Since they are small, Dachshunds do require some extra attention when it comes to interacting with kids, usually in the form of supervision. It is important to make sure they are not handled roughly or played with in an improper manner.
Dachshunds are undeniably smart, as evidenced by their ability to learn quickly and remember tasks for long periods of time. These intelligent dogs are well known for their hunger for mental stimulation and will often seek out activities that challenge and keep them entertained. Not only are they capable of learning basic obedience commands, they can learn more complicated tricks as well. Dachshunds are also highly sociable dogs who usually get along best with people they are familiar with which is an indication of their attentiveness to their environment and those around them.
