Standard Dachshunds are 16-32 pounds and between 8-9 inches tall; miniatures are 11 pounds or less and between 5-6 inches tall; and rabbits will typically weigh 6-11 pounds and be 4-5 inches tall. However, it is not uncommon for a puppy of any size to reach a slightly largeror smaller-than-average size as an adult.
Dachshunds are active and energetic dogs that need more daily exercise than many other breeds. They should receive approximately two 30-minute leisurely walks plus several other activities such as fetch and agility every day. Additionally, they love to play with their owners, so having regular playtime together is beneficial. It's important to keep their minds as well as their bodies active, so playing hide-and-seek or interactive games with them can also help.
Dachshunds can make great family pets and often get along well with children. Most of them love the attention and care that young ones provide and don't mind playing with them. However, it's important to keep in mind certain things. Socializing with other pets and people should begin early. Ensure that your dachshund is comfortable and well-socialized before introducing him to young children as some Dachshunds may be anxious or defensive when taken into unfamiliar surroundings. Also, it's important to supervise children and dogs at all times.
