Questions & Answers
Dachshunds have a unique look, with their long bodies, big ears, and short legs. But beyond their interesting appearance, there are many fascinating things to learn about this breed. For instance, Dachshunds were originally bred to hunt badgers and other small animals, and their sense of smell for tracking prey is second only to that of sporting dogs. They will even get in badger holes if necessary! Additionally, Dachshunds are one of the oldest breeds of domesticated dogs, possibly dating back as far as ancient Egypt.

Regular grooming is also important to ensure that your Dachshund's skin and coat remain free of allergens.

Look for grain-free kibble or biscuits containing enough protein and carbohydrates to provide the necessary nutrition for their small, active bodies. Choose fresh, natural ingredients such as beef, fish, and chicken, and look out for added vitamins and minerals to provide additional nutrition. Quality wet food products can also be added as a food supplement, providing your Dachshund with both essential nutrition and a variety of tastes and textures.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund is a enjoyable but important task! First, be sure to secure any items that may pose a choking hazard or otherwise injure the pooch. Take note of any decorative items such as glass figures, and make sure to remove or secure those.

Don't forget to make sure that accessible trash cans with lids are present; these are essential to keep the pup from scavenging and getting into trouble.

Generally, Dachshunds fall into one of two categories: standard size (up to 32 pounds) and miniature (up to 11 pounds). Their height can usually range from 8-9 inches for a miniature breed to 9-11 inches for a standard one. To get the most accurate size estimate, it's best to consult with your vet or a breed-specific professional.
Dachshunds can certainly enjoy taking a dip in the pool. Generally, swimming is not as natural a behavior for these hound-type breeds as it is for others who are used to swimming and living around water. While some Dachshunds may enjoy paddling around in the pool, it is important to use caution and proper supervision as their body type can make it difficult for them to swim and they may tire easily. If your Dachshund is hesitant in the water, providing positive reinforcement and rewards can help to teach them to swim with confidence.

Dachshunds can excel with kids when given proper socialization and training. When it comes to playtime, they tend to be quite gentle and can provide hours of entertainment with their silly behavior.

The exact amount of minutes per day to train dachshunds varies based on the needs of that particular dog. Generally speaking, you can start off with 10-15 minutes per day and gradually increase to no more than 30 minutes. If your dachshund is a puppy, then you may need to further increase that amount for best results. For more advanced training, then you should start off with 15-20 minutes at first and, if necessary, slowly build up to 45 minutes or more for the best results.
