Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, also known as "Doxies" or "sausage dogs," are an adorable canine breed famous for their short legs, long bodies and cute personalities. They're a popular dog breed with many fun facts. For instance, the word "Dachshund" is German and translates to "badger dog," which perfectly describes their long and low-to-the ground build. Interestingly, Dachshunds were initially bred to hunt small game such as badgers.
Dachshunds, while generally considered to be a low-shedding breed, are not hypoallergenic. While some people might find one individual Dachshund to be less of a trigger, there is no guarantee that all Dachshunds will cause fewer reactions than other breeds. To make sure you don't experience allergies to a Dachshund, it is best to slowly introduce yourself to one, or even better, to multiple Dachshunds, in order to test your body's reaction.
Dachshunds should not be fed anything that contains unnatural or unhealthy ingredients, such as chocolate, onions, avocado, grapes, raisins, macadamia nuts, fatty or oily foods, or too many table scraps. Specifically, Dachshunds should not be fed uncooked meat, fish, or poultry due to their small size and their capacity to contract diseases and foodborne illnesses easily. It is also important to not give Dachshunds bones, as this can be dangerous and can cause bowel obstructions as well as splinter and cause internal injury.
Yes, Dachshunds do have a few special requirements that are important to keep in mind. For example, they are prone to intervertebral disc disease, so it's important to keep them from jumping off furniture or doing any exercise that puts too much strain on their backs. Additionally, Dachshunds are very prone to gaining weight, so it's important to make sure they get consistent exercise and a balanced, nutritious diet.
The size of your Dachshund puppy will depend upon a few factors such as the size of its parents, its age, and the type of Dachshund. Generally, Dachshunds are considered a small-sized breed, with adults usually topping out at anywhere from 8 to 9 inches tall at the shoulder for the standard Dachshund, and up to 12 inches or more for miniature or "toy" sizes.
Generally, it is a good idea to take your Dachshund for short walks or runs; however, keep in mind that due to their body shape and short legs, it is not recommended to take them running for extended periods of time. For many breeds, running can put a lot of strain on their joints, thus making them more prone to injury. When taking your Dachshund for a run, it is recommended to monitor him closely and keep the run shorter than you would for yourself.
Dachshunds certainly make wonderful pets for first-time owners; however, there are certain characteristics that should be carefully considered. Dachshunds are intelligent, independent-minded, and loyal dogs with lots of personality. They are very vocal and can bark quite often, so patience is a must. They are also very active and require regular exercise, and their physical needs can be met with a kind and consistent routine.
Training a Dachshund requires consistency and patience. It's best to start training at a young age, as soon as you bring them into your home, to ensure they learn proper manners. It's important to limit the amount of treats given and to reward your pup for positive behaviors, since dogs learn better with rewards rather than punishment. Start with the basics like sit, stay and come. If your pup does not know these terms, use a treat to lure them into position and praise them when they do it correctly.
