Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, often nicknamed "wiener dogs," are unique and lovable breeds that have a lot of interesting facts associated with them. For example, the name Dachshunds originated from two German words – Dachs meaning badger and Hund meaning dog – because this breed was bred to be an excellent badger hunter. Dachshunds come in three varieties – short-haired, wire-haired, and long-haired – all of which require regular grooming. Additionally, these dogs are born blind and deaf but develop their sight and hearing soon after birth.
Whether or not you have an allergic reaction to a dachshund specifically will depend upon your own individual sensitivities; however, all mammals, including dachshunds, produce dander, saliva and urine that can potentially trigger an immune response in individuals who are prone to allergies. Additionally, dander can become embedded deep in furniture and carpets, becoming airborne and leading to persistent allergic reactions.
Yes, Dachshunds have special dietary needs. Due to their small size, they require a diet that is high in protein and relatively low in fat. They also need good sources of calcium and phosphorus, as well as other minerals and vitamins. Dachshunds are prone to obesity, so free feeding is not recommended. Properly portioned meals are best, and their meals should be tailored to their individual activity level and lifestyle.
Becoming the best puppy parent for a dachshund requires understanding the breed's specific needs and tailoring your care to these. Make sure your home is dachshund-friendly, with no dangerous items lying about like electric cables, pills, or tools. Socialize your dachshund early so they can be comfortable around children, animals, and other people. Provide your puppy with plenty of physical and mental stimulation through activities, playtime, and walks. Develop an appropriate and consistent house-training routine, and establish healthy boundaries and rules from the very beginning.
Dachshunds can be considered both large and small depending on how you look at them. Generally Dachshunds are considered small to medium size dogs, often measuring between 10 and 15 inches in height. However, they are known to be quite tenacious and have a larger personality than their size would suggest. Because they are so active and have such a strong will, they can seem (and sometimes be) larger than life. So in the end, whether or not a Dachshund is considered "big" is a matter of opinion.
Dachshunds are an active, energetic breed that need plenty of exercise. Typically, Dachshunds require at least 30 minutes of moderate activity every day. This can include running, playing or walking. Although these activities are important for a Dachshund's physical wellbeing, activities that tax the mind are equally crucial. Thus, it is encouraged to take your furry friend to the park, a dog beach, an obedience class, and/or a dog agility course to adequately stimulate their brain.
Dachshunds can make wonderful family pets, particularly when it comes to their interactions with children. Not only are Dachshunds known for being smart and fun-loving, but they are also quite loyal to their owners. Their sweet and gentle nature make them great companions to kids of all ages. Generally, they enjoy being around people, so they will happily accompany your family on outings and playdates. Additionally, they tend to be good with other animals and are even known to be quite protective of their family members, adding an extra layer of comfort and security to any home.
Dachshunds are no exception to the rule when it comes to intelligence. They have a reputation among many pet owners for being independent thinkers and have often been observed figuring out ways to open cupboards and cabinets or complete puzzles and game challenges. While each individual dog is different and may display a range of intelligence, they are generally considered to be quite clever in comparison to other breeds. Dachshunds are likely to pick up training quickly and form secure relationships with their owners. This breed is usually quite loyal and intelligent, which makes them well-suited to family life.
