Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are small, adorable and loyal dogs that make wonderful companions. Though small in stature, they have quite a personality and can be independent-minded. These dogs generally require at least moderate exercise, such as a daily walk, to stay healthy and happy. Dachshunds do have some specific medical needs that should be watched for, such as intervertebral disk disease, an increased risk of diabetes, and an inclination towards obesity. It is also important to note that these dogs have an affinity for digging.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds is possible with the right precautions and regular upkeep. To start, vacuum and wipe down any surfaces regularly to minimize allergens. Look for an unscented and hypoallergenic shampoo to bathe your Dachshunds to reduce the risk of an allergic reaction. Additionally, consider buying an air purifier or high efficiency particulate absorber (HEPA) to help reduce airborne allergens in your home. Finally, keep your pet out of your bedroom to minimize allergens and have them regularly groomed by a professional.
Dachshunds are known for their long bodies and short legs, and the best food for them is something formulated specifically for their breed. A food that's made specifically for Dachshunds will offer the necessary protein and fat they need, as well as provide key vitamins and minerals needed for overall health and wellness. Additionally, these foods are designed to avoid potential digestive issues or other problems associated with Dachshunds. It's a good idea to check the ingredients list before purchasing, as that will allow you to see which ones are available that meet your pet's nutritional needs.
Before getting a Dachshund, it's important to make sure you're prepared to give your pup the best life. Start by picking out a good quality food, crate, leash, collar or harness, and bedding. These items are essential so your pup can stay safe, comfortable, and happy. You'll also want to have chew toys, treats, a nail clipper, brush and comb, as well as a safe place to play and exercise. Don't forget to pick up several food and water dishes and a few potty training products.
Dachshunds typically have an average size range of 11 to 32 pounds and 8 to 9 inches in height at the shoulders. The typical dachshund comes in one of three sizes standard, mini and toy. Standard dachshunds are considered the largest of the breed, ranging from 16 to 32 pounds, and usually having a height of 8 to 9 inches at the shoulders. Miniature dachshunds weigh in between 11 and 16 pounds and typically range from 5 to 6 inches in height at the shoulders.
Dachshunds can enjoy a leisurely swim in the pool, lake or ocean just like many other breeds of dogs; however, their conformation does not lend itself to be a strong swimmer. Generally, Dachshunds don't care for the water and some may even be scared of it. On top of that, experts suggest that due to their long spines and short legs, it may even be dangerous for Dachshunds to get too much exposure to water as it can strain their backs.
Generally, Daushunds are known to get along well with other household pets, though it always depends on the particular character of the individual Dachshund. When introducing a new pet, it is important to observe the Dachshund's and other pet's body language and behavior: do they seem relaxed, or do they seem alarmed or fearful? If they seem comfortable with each other, it is very likely that they will get along just fine. Behavioral training can also help smooth the introduction process, especially in cases of unfamiliar animals.
It depends on the training goals and the individual dog. Generally speaking, a good rule of thumb for successful Dachshund training is around 10 minutes per day for basic obedience and 30 minutes per day for complex training. The important thing to remember is that while quantity matters, quality of the training is paramount. Short, intense training sessions are more effective than longer, unfocused ones. So, it's important to focus on rewarding desired behavior with positive reinforcement. To further increase the effectiveness of the training, be sure to vary the training techniques and topics every day.
