Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a unique breed of small to medium-sized hound dogs. They are among the oldest of domesticated breeds, having originated in Germany in the 1600s. They are friendly, outgoing, and intelligent, and make great family pets. Dachshunds come in three different varieties including the Smooth (or Standard), Long-haired, and Wirehaired. They are typically muscular and long-bodied with short legs, which is the reason behind their infamous nickname -'wiener dogs'.
Dachshunds typically do not cause people to have allergies; however, it is possible to be allergic to any dog breed. People who suffer from pet allergies are allergic to either the dander or saliva of a dog. These allergens can be present in both long-haired and short-haired breeds. Additionally, the type of food you feed your Dachshund could contribute to your pet potentially having a higher allergen count.
Yes, Dachshunds may have special dietary needs in comparison to other breeds of dogs. While some Dachshunds may thrive on generic dog food, others may need specific nutrients to help maintain their overall health. For example, Dachshunds can often be more prone to digestive issues, so a diet that includes easily digestible proteins, carbohydrates, and fats may be wise.
To get ready for your new Dachshund, it is important to first research and understand the breed that way you can be prepared with the specific needs and behaviors of the breed. You should also create a safe environment for your pup to explore, which includes providing secure fencing, eliminating anything that might pose a danger, and having any necessary supplies like food, toys, and leashes on hand before their arrival. Additionally, create a routine early on for feeding, potty breaks, and exercise and be consistent with it.
Dachshunds come in two distinct sizes: Standard and Miniature. The Standard size typically weighs between 16 and 32 pounds, while the Miniature size typically weighs 11 pounds or less. Each size is further divided into varieties classified as Dwarf, which weigh up to 11 pounds, and Traditionals, which weigh over 11 pounds. As far as height, Standard Dachshunds typically measure 8 to 9 inches, while Miniatures typically measure 5 to 6 inches. Finally, wirehaired Dachshunds are typically slightly larger than their smooth-haired siblings.
While running with a Dachshund may sound like a lot of fun, it is recommended that you do not take them running with you. Dachshunds have short, stubby legs and their bones don't provide the support that they need for running long distances. Furthermore, their breathing and heart rate can go up quickly, which can lead to potential health issues. If you would like to exercise with your Dachshund, it is better to opt for walks, hikes, and/or doggy play dates.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are loyal, loving, and fantastic family dogs. They form close connections with their owners, and they're very gentle with children. They require minimal exercise, which makes them an ideal family pet for busy homes. They're intelligent, too, and can learn a range of commands with proper training. They also have good etiquette with other family pets, preferring to make friends with them rather than competing. All in all, Dachshunds make wonderful family companions!
Dachshunds are often considered to have a lot of intelligence and are often highly trainable. Studies have found that this breed of dog is especially good at mastering commands and retrieving objects. They are often eager to please their owners, so long as they are given adequate exercise, mental stimulation, and positive reinforcement during training. They often have keen senses of hearing or smell, and are even able to distinguish sounds or smells that other breeds may not be able to pick up. With the right training and consistent reward, these pups can learn and remember quite a few things.
