Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are one of the oldest dog breeds, originating in Germany in the 1600s. They are low to the ground, long-bodied dogs, with alert and curious temperaments. They are loyal companions and excel in agility training, obedience, and tracking. Furthermore, they can be stubborn and persistent, making them a great challenge to train, but rewarding in the end. Dachshunds generally weigh between 16 and 32 pounds depending on their type (standard, miniature, or toy).
It is possible to manage allergies to Dachshunds, but it requires keeping the pet and home clean. Regularly give your pet baths with pet-specific hypoallergenic shampoo, and keep on top of any shedding or hair build up. Vacuum up any excess fur and wash their bedding weekly with a hypoallergenic detergent. Other tips include keeping your pet out of the bedroom, using air purifiers or air filters, and controlling pet dander through daily brushing.
Dachshunds eat a highly nutritious, high-quality diet that includes dry kibble, canned wet food, and natural, whole-foods like fruits and vegetables. They enjoy the occasional treat, such as boiled, skinless chicken, turkey, raw vegetables, and small amounts of plain yogurt or eggs. A healthy diet for your Dachshund should appropriately balance proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals, always selecting the best quality ingredients.
Yes, Dachshunds have special requirements that owners should be aware of. Although they are an intelligent breed, sometimes they can be stubborn and require patience in training. Additionally, Dachshunds tend to become overweight easily so owners should ensure that the dog is fed regular meals and gets adequate exercise. Since Dachshunds are prone to back problems, they should not be allowed to jump off of furniture, elevation or play tug-of-war. Depending on the breed, they may need extra grooming and nails should be kept trimmed.
It is difficult to predict the exact size a Dachshund puppy will reach as an adult. Adult size is determined by a combination of genetics and the right diet and exercise as the puppy grows. On average, a full-grown Dachshund can weigh between 16 and 32 pounds. Dachshunds are classed as toy or miniature, depending on their size.
The amount of time you should walk your Dachshund each day depends on a variety of factors, including your pup's age, breed, size, and activity level. Generally, a young Dachshund should be walked around 30 to 60 minutes a day, while an adult may need up to two hours. You should consider whether your pup needs more or less depending on their individual activity level and health conditions. For example, an obese pup may need less strenuous exercise in order to lose weight.
Dachshunds can be amazing companions for families with children. All dogs need proper socialization and training, but Dachshunds are often known for being easy to train and love to be around people, which makes them a great fit for families with kids. Typically, Dachshunds are known for their playful and dependable personalities, and they are sure to bring plenty of joy and love into a home.
Training a Dachshund can be both simple and complex, depending on the owner’s experience and the age of the dog. For those with prior experience in obedience training, the process may be relatively easy. Starting young and early training is often the best approach for creating a well-mannered pooch. It is important to note that Dachshunds, like other hunting dogs, have a strong prey instinct, so they can be quick to follow their noses, meaning they may bolt after a bird or rabbit if they are not firmly in control.
