Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, also known as "weenies" or "sausage dogs," are a fun and charming breed with a long and delightful history. Did you know they were actually bred to hunt small prey like rabbits and badgers? They were originally created in Germany in the early 19th century, and gained notoriety during Queen Victoria’s reign as they became quite popular amongst the English royal family. Dachshunds come in a variety of sizes, from the standard breed to the miniature and even toy variations.
It is possible for some people that own a Dachshund to experience allergies. However, the responses can vary from person to person. It's important to note that not all people who come into contact with a Dachshund will experience allergies. Before getting a Dachshund, potential owners should consider doing a test with a allergist to see if they are sensitive to the breed. If allergies are present, there are steps you can take to reduce their impact.
Dachshunds have special dietary needs due to their long-bodied shape and small size, and so it is important to select the right dog food for them. Many recommend dry food specifically tailored for small breed dogs as the best option, since smaller kibble pieces are easier for them to eat. High-quality dry food often provides a complete and balanced diet which is important for Dachshunds. Wet food containing real protein and minimal calories is also a great option, as it contains essential nutrients not always found in dry formulas.
To become the best puppy parent for your Dachshund, it's essential to provide them with love, care, and guidance. Start by establishing a routine and following it regularly. This will help your pet be more comfortable in your home. You should also commit to a regular routine when it comes to exercise and playtime. Taking them on walks and giving them toys and activities to do will help keep them entertained and healthy. Additionally, establishing house rules and boundaries is important for teaching your pup proper behavior.
The size of your Dachshund puppy will depend on the dog's breed and lineage. Generally, the breed standard is for an adult Dachshund to be between 8 and 9 inches in height for a standard size and 5–6 inches in height for a miniature size. However, a Dachshund puppy could eventually grow to be either bigger or smaller than the breed standard, depending on nutrition, exercise, and genetics.
Dachshunds do have a propensity towards being an active breed, and depending on the individual, some Dachshunds may enjoy swimming as an exercise. This does not mean that all Dachshunds will take to swimming, as much like any activity or exercise, this may require patience and some getting used to. When introducing a Dachshund to water, it should always be done gradually and with patience, as to not spook or frighten the animal.
Dachshunds are definitely good companions for children, and can form strong attachments to their families. They love to play and cuddle, and are known for their loyalty and affection. That being said, their lively personalities can be overwhelming for small kids, so it is important to ensure your Dachshund is properly socialized and trained from a young age. Additionally, since these dogs have short legs and long backs, children should never be allowed to carry them as it can cause back problems over time.
Dachshunds are known for being spirited and independent, but they are also highly intelligent pooches. Studies have shown that they ranked 28th out of 138 dog breeds in terms of working intelligence, which is actually quite intelligent by any standards. Because of their intelligence, Dachshunds are easy to train and are quite capable of learning several commands within a short time. In addition, they are also known for being loyal and affectionate with their owners, plus they are very good problem solvers.
