Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an interesting breed that have a rich history and plenty of fun facts! For example, they originated in Germany, and their name translates to badger dog which was the animal they were bred to hunt. Additionally, Dachshunds come in three sizes, wire-haired, long-haired, and smooth-haired; and they are also known for their long bodies and short legs.
Dachshunds are a breed of dog not generally considered hypoallergenic. This means that they do produce allergens that can be inhaled and can cause an allergic reaction. However, like any breed of dog, they can produce different levels of allergens depending on the individual. It is possible for someone who is allergic to other breeds of dogs to be less allergic to a Dachshund, but they are not considered "allergy-proof".
Dachshunds typically thrive on a high-quality, age-appropriate dry food diet that is designed for small breeds. To add variety to their diets, supplement their regular food with small amounts of lean, cooked meat such as chicken, beef, or turkey, cottage cheese, boiled eggs, fruits, and vegetables. These additions should only make up between 10 and 20 percent of their overall diet and should be balanced with their regular food for a healthy and complete diet. Treats should only be given occasionally and should not exceed 10 percent of their overall caloric intake.
Creating a safe and welcoming home for your new Dachshund is important to ensure they feel comfortable. You should provide a secure area indoors for your pet to sleep and play such as a bed or kennel with blankets and toys. You should also find out what type of diet your Dachshund needs and purchase special food and treats that provide the necessary nutrition. Pet-proof your home to make sure there are no hazards or access to items that could be dangerous like wires and chemicals. Spend time with them outdoors in a safe fenced-in area and take them for regular walks.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. They were bred in the early 1700s to hunt badgers. Despite their long, cylindrical shape, they only usually grow to be 11-16 inches tall and 9-18 pounds heavy. Although Dachshunds are intrepid and brave little dogs, they make excellent lap dogs because of their smaller size. It's important to remember that they are prone to back problems due to their long spine, so their owners must take extra care.
Dachshunds can certainly enjoy swimming. Generally, however, they are not as keen on swimming as some other dog breeds. Some Dachshunds may take to the water eagerly, while others may not. Although they can swim, they don't have the typical morphy build to be the ideal aquatic canine. Most often, Dachshunds prefer to keep their feet on the ground and may struggle with swimming in deeper areas unless they have paddling experience. With proper training, Dachshunds may learn to become proficient swimmers.
Dachshunds as a breed are incredibly loyal and loving, which makes them great family dogs. With their friendly and lovable personalities, they will quickly become an important and cherished member of the family. They are also quite intelligent and pick up training relatively quickly, making them easy to manage and an ideal companion. Due to their smaller size and low energy requirement, they're great for people with smaller living quarters or limited outdoor activity. Dachshunds are also curious and alert, making them excelling watchdogs.
Dachshunds are widely considered to be one of the smartest breeds of dogs. Studies have shown that in terms of intelligence, they measure up well to other breeds. Getting a Dachshund to learn a new command or trick is usually only a matter of a few short practice sessions. They tend to thrive on recognition and reward, and quickly become motivated to please their owners. Dachshunds are also known for their problem-solving skills, as they can quickly come up with ways to get around barriers or obstacles in their way.
