Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a small hound-type dog that originated in Germany. It is known for its distinctive long, low body, short legs, and long, drooping ears. It is an intelligent and lively companion that is also fearless, brave, and loyal to its owners. The Dachshund's build makes them perfect for going to ground, which is why they are so well-suited for activities such as hunting, digging, tracking, and even hunting small rodents.
Dachshunds are not considered to be hypoallergenic. However, some members of this breed do not produce as much pet dander, which is often the primary cause of pet allergies, as other breeds. Additionally, while Dachshunds do shed, their short, smooth coat and small size help keep their shedding to a minimum. Therefore, if you or someone in your family is mildly allergic to pets, a Dachshund may be an option.
For optimal health and longevity, Dachshunds should be fed a balanced, nutrient-rich diet tailored to their individual needs. Look for a high-Quality dry kibble that contains all of the essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants necessary for good canine health. Dachshunds may also benefit from high-protein wet food, but be mindful to only feed minimally-processed, human-grade food that is free from preservatives, additives, and fillers. It is also important to provide your dog with a variety of healthy proteins, grains, and vegetables.
Dachshunds are a unique breed of dog that do require a bit of special care and attention. As a dog owner, it's important to keep in mind that Dachshunds are a deep chested breed and have the potential to suffer from gastric dilation-volvulus (GDV) or bloat. Proper diet, moderate exercise and limiting stress levels can help to prevent GDV from occurring.
Dachshunds come in two sizes, standard and miniature. The standard size dachshund typically ranges from 8 to 11 inches tall at the shoulder and can weigh up to around 32 pounds. The miniature version is much smaller; they usually range from 5 to 7 inches tall and typically weigh between 11 and 16 pounds. In some places, “tweenies” may also be available, which are somewhere in between the two sizes.
Dachshunds are definitely active dogs! Although they may not need as much exercise as larger breeds, regular physical and mental stimulation are key for this playful breed. You'll find that they love activities like going for long walks and will often stay up and run about for hours if they're given the chance. Housebreaking a Dachshund may take some patience because of their curiosity, but with a little effort, proper socialization, and regular playtime, you'll find that this breed can be a very active and rewarding companion.
Dachshunds can make great companions for first-time owners, depending on the individual dog and the current circumstances of the owner. Their overall temperament is usually friendly and cheerful, and their small size makes them ideal for households with limited space. Dachshunds are generally not high-maintenance and thrive with regular exercise, human interaction, and mental stimulation. They’re also usually easy to train, although patience is required and early socialization is encouraged. Potential owners should consider any special health needs this breed may have, as well as their penchant for chasing after potential prey.
Training a Dachshund can be a challenging experience, but with the right strategic approach and dedication to the task, it is certainly possible to achieve. Dachshunds are known for their intelligence and independent nature, so having a well-thought out training plan and the patience to adhere to it are key for success. To begin with, it's important to establish your own expected standards of behavior and then use positive reinforcement for when your pup succeeds and gently but firmly correct any negative behaviors. Consistency is also key, so set aside time each day to provide reinforcement and set boundaries.
