Questions & Answers
Fun facts about Dachshunds include their origin as hunting dogs over 500 years ago in Germany. The name Dachshund is derived from German words meaning ‘badger dog’ as this breed was bred for centuries to hunt badgers. They are also known as ‘weiner dogs’, because of their shape! Dachshunds come in standard, miniature, and kaninchen sizes, and a variety of colors and patterns, including brindle, black and tan, and dapple. They also have wired and smooth coat varieties.
It is possible for Dachshunds to cause allergic reactions in some people, though there is no guarantee that you would have any allergic reactions. It is important to remember that all dogs, regardless of breed, can collect dander and other allergens on their fur, as well as transfer them through saliva or urine. Therefore, it is advised to consult an allergist for a professional opinion and to consider potential allergies to particular breeds before selecting a dog.
Dachshunds should not be fed raw or undercooked meats, poultry, fish, eggs, or bones because they contain bacteria that can cause serious health problems such as salmonella or listeria. Additionally, any human food that is high in fat, sugar, or salt should also be avoided as these can upset their digestion and could lead to obesity and other health issues. A high fiber diet is best for Dachshunds so give them food that is specifically made for their particular breed.
Preparing for a new Dachshund in your home requires taking some basic steps to ensure your pup's safety and happiness. Create a safe space for your new pup where they feel comfortable and secure. Designate an area with plenty of comfortable beds and blankets as well as a clean area for their food and water. Put up baby gate to keep your Dachshund out of trouble but allowing you to stay by their side. Establish good housebreaking habits from the start by taking your new pup outside for potty breaks frequently.

According to the AKC breed standard, miniature dachshunds weigh 11 pounds or less, standard dachshunds weigh 16-32 pounds, and a dachshund that is of an uncommon size or is in between standard and miniature size, may weigh up to 16 pounds. As dachshunds come in a variety of sizes, they can generally be considered to a medium to large-sized dog.
Yes, Dachshunds can enjoy swimming! Though some may prefer to take the plunge more often than others, all Dachshunds should be given the opportunity to get in the water. Swimming is a great exercise for these active pooches, and provides a fun way for them to cool off during the hot summer months. Getting a Dachshund accustomed to the water is easier when done at a young age, but dogs of any age can learn to benefit from jumping into the pool.
Dachshunds can absolutely be great with children, however it is important to remember that every individual dog is different and each dog should be judged on their individual merits. This said, Dachshunds are known to be smart, loyal and affectionate, making them a great fit for families with kids. With the right socialization and training, Dachshunds can become devoted friends to young children. Small children should always be supervised when interacting with any type of pet, but the Dachshund is generally known to be an excellent companion for children and families.
Training a Dachshund may require patience and consistency, as most breeds do. It can be challenging, but achievable, to teach a Dachshund basic obedience commands as their nature can be a bit stubborn. However, with positive reinforcement and plenty of treats, it can be fairly easy to help them learn commands, adjust to a structured routine, and even do a few tricks. It is important to start training from an early age as this will help them to form good habits.
