Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are such wonderful dogs, and they have a few interesting fun facts as well! For instance, the name Dachshund comes from the German words for badger (dachs) and dog (hund) and were originally bred to be scent hounds and burrowers, excellent for hunting badgers and other burrowing animals. Additionally, the dog has been known to live up to 16 years when given the proper care, and they are the smallest of the hound breed, making them great lap dogs for people with less space in their home.
Dachshunds are not considered to be hypoallergenic as their coat sheds regularly and releases a portion of the dander and allergens found in dogs into the air. This may trigger allergic reactions for those who are allergic to pet fur or dander. It is important to remember that no matter what breed of dog is chosen, regular maintenance of the coat through brushing and general hygiene is key in keeping allergen levels low in the home.
Dachshunds require a balanced, nutritious diet to stay healthy and active. Feeding your Dachshund a good quality dog food is the best way to ensure your pet gets all of the necessary nutrients they need. Look for food specifically designed for small breed dogs, as it is formulated for their unique dietary needs. If you are looking for a natural diet, fresh, human-grade food that is balanced for your pet's age, size, and activity level can provide them with the necessary nutrients.
Before getting a Dachshund, you should purchase a few essentials to have in your home. These include a crate, a collar and leash, food and water bowls, a brush, shampoo, dog treats, toys, and a bed. It's also important to properly secure your home with a secure fence or gate as this breed is quite adventurous and may try to escape if given the opportunity. You want to make sure you provide your Dachshund with exercise and stimulation by taking them on regular walks.
Your Dachshund puppy's size is somewhat variable; usually they weigh anywhere from 16 to 32 pounds when fully grown. The exact size they'll reach as an adult is difficult to predict and will depend on many factors, including nutrition, exercise, and any potential medical conditions. Generally, Dachshund puppies start to gain their coloring pattern and other physical characteristics at 8-12 weeks, so it'll become easier to predict their eventual size and appearance. Ultimately, the decision of how big your Dachshund puppy will be comes down to the genes it inherited from its parents.
Yes, it is possible for you to take your Dachshund running. However, it is best to plan for shorter runs and take frequent breaks. Dachshunds are a breed of dog that is not as well-suited for running long distances as others. It is important to monitor your Dachshund's temperature and breathing regularly while running. Make sure you stop and rest if your dog is exhausted or overheating. Additionally, Dachshunds are prone to back problems, so especially long runs can cause injury.
Dachshunds can absolutely make great family dogs. Many Dachshunds possess companionable personalities that allow them to fit perfectly into households with children. They are often loyal and affectionate dogs and can provide excellent family fun with their playful nature. Additionally, their size makes them an ideal pet for small family homes or apartments, meaning that they're great for bustling family life. Regular exercise and teaching dachshunds basic commands in a consistent fashion is key for ensuring good behavior, and it's important to provide loving training that caters to the breed's particular needs.
While there is no definitive answer as to whether Dachshunds are smarter than other breeds, many experienced Dachshund owners attest to their intelligence. They have an innate sense of protectiveness and loyalty, learning commands quickly and responding to both verbal commands and hand signals. These dogs are often exceptionally alert and keenly aware of changes in their environment. Dachshunds may also remember the route of your daily walks, for instance, or recognize a certain toy as "theirs" after just one play session.
