Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, also known as wiener dogs, are some of the most lovable pups around. They were originally bred as hunting dogs and their long, low stature, was perfect for going through burrows and other small spaces. Over the years, their popularity as household pets have grown and many people find them charming due to their size and funny-looking ears and snouts.
While Dachshunds are not typically considered to be hypoallergenic, some individuals may not suffer from a reaction when in close contact with the breed. Hypoallergenic breeds do not cause allergic reactions in humans, and this is determined by a variety of factors, including the dog’s fur, dander, saliva, and skin cells.
It is important to determine which food suits your Dachshund's individual needs. Generally, a high-quality diet containing animal-based proteins, carbohydrates, fruits, vegetables, and essential vitamins and minerals is recommended. Commercial dog food is a balanced diet, but be careful of fillers like corn, wheat, and soy.

Measure the food dishes to get the correct size for your Dachshund. Be sure to create a safe area of your house for your pup, with a comfortable and safe bed. Ensure that all hazards and potential dangers have been removed from the area to provide a safe environment for your pup.

The tweenie size is between the standard and mini sizes, and typically measures between 6 and 8 inches and weighs between 11 and 16 pounds.

If your Dachshunddoes participate in activities involving water, you should always keep them supervised and provide flotation devices to avoid potential drowning.
