Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a small breed of dog originating in Germany that is easily recognizable by its long, slender body and short legs. They are often referred to as 'wiener dogs' or 'sausage dogs' due to their shape and appearance. Dachshunds come in a variety of colors, coats and sizes, making them one of the most popular canine breeds in the world. They are generally friendly and outgoing, and highly intelligent.
Dachshunds, like all other breeds of dogs, do not cause allergies in all people. Some people may have an allergic reaction to dander, saliva, and other proteins that are found in a dachshund's coat. That being said, many people with allergies to other pets may not experience any allergic reactions when around a dachshund. The best way to determine if you have an allergy to a dachshund is to spend time with one and see how your body reacts.
People should not feed Dachshunds tabletops scraps, raw or undercooked meat, fatty foods, and sugary snacks. A Dachshund's diet should consist of lean proteins, carbs, fatty acids, fiber, and plenty of water. Overfeeding is a major problem among Dachshunds, so owners should use precise portion control and be mindful of their dog’s weight and activity level. All foods should be sliced into small, chew-sized portions to reduce the risk of choking and to prevent them from gorging themselves.
Before getting a Dachshund, it is essential to invest in the right supplies. You'll want to pick up a dog bed or crate (whichever they prefer), a collar and leash, food and water bowls, high-quality puppy food, puppy toys, a brush, and a nail trimmer. These are essential items that will help get your new pet settled in and comfortable. Additionally, you may want to look into fun items like cute outfits, ramps, and stairs so they can more easily access comfortable spots around the house.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. These long-bodied, short-legged dogs have a compact size with an average weight of around 16-32 pounds and an average height of around 8-9 inches. Their small size and unique build gives them a desired advantage for activities such as hunting and tracking. Despite their size, they have a spirited and fearless temperament and can make loyal family pets. Dachshunds are often considered a toy breed due to being small enough to be carried, as well as to their low grooming needs and small space requirement.
Dachshunds are known to be relatively active dogs, so they do require daily exercise to prevent them from becoming bored or overweight. While the exact amount will vary from dog to dog, they generally require at least 20 – 30 minutes of aerobic exercise per day. Some owners find that two shorter bouts of exercise per day are better for their dachshund than one longer one. Walking is a great form of exercise for this breed, or you can take your dachshund jogging if they are up for it.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds can get along with other pets if they are properly socialized. However, you should remember that Dachshunds are independent dogs by nature and they may not enjoy the presence of other animals. It is essential that all pets in the household are properly socialized and given ample space to avoid territorial disputes. Pay attention to the body language and behaviour of all household pets to ensure a harmonious coexistence. With patience and time, a Dachshund can learn to get along with other pets but their comfort level may vary with different animals.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered to be relatively intelligent dogs. Specially bred over hundreds of years, this breed is classified as an energetic, eager to please, resourceful, and loving canine companion. Their characteristics of loyalty, problem-solving skills, and tenacity have helped them to rightfully earn the title of being one of the smartest breeds out there. Studies done in recent decades have shown that they understand commands and perform better than most other breeds.
