Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an incredibly unique breed of dog, and the most interesting thing about them is their amazing bodies. They are distinctively long and low to the ground, which allows them to be both easy to maneuver when chasing prey and excellent guard dogs. They also have impressive strength and speed for their size. They come in several different sizes, from the traditional standard size to the miniature, and can also come in 10 different colors and 6 different coat types, adding to their uniqueness and making them truly one-of-a-kind.
Dachshunds are not a non-shedding breed. They do shed their coat throughout the year, however their short coat and smaller size means that they won't shed as much as a larger, longer-coated breed. Regular brushing and grooming can help manage the shedding and keep the coat clean and healthy.
Yes, Dachshunds do have special dietary needs. They require food that is higher in protein than other breeds to help maintain their larger-than-normal muscles. Because they have a tendency to gain weight easily, they should also be given food with lower fat content. Some Dachshunds may require additional supplements to ensure their balanced diet, including glucosamine to combat the damage caused by their longer back and legs. Overall, Dachshunds are quite healthy but they do need special dietary considerations in order to maintain their active lifestyle.
Dachshunds have a few specific needs that owners should be aware of. They require regular exercise and should be taken on multiple walks a day to stay in shape. It's important to keep their nails trimmed and their ears clean. Additionally, they should be fed a high-quality food suited to their size and activity level. Since Dachshunds are at risk for back problems due to their long, low spines, it's important to monitor their activity level and watch out for any signs of injury or pain.
Yes, Dachshunds are classified as small dogs. They range in size from 8-9 inches from the shoulder to the paw, and usually weigh anywhere from 16-32 lbs.

They are known to be independent and smart, often digging and barking. They are also eager to please their owners, making them affectionate and loyal companions great for families and small living spaces alike.
Taking your Dachshund running is a great way to give them the exercise they need, as long as you consider certain factors first. Depending on the age and weight of your dog, a light jogging session will suffice most experts recommend about 15-20 minutes twice a day. Also keep in mind that Dachshunds are a low-stamina breed, and too much exercise may be too strenuous for them. Finally, make sure that the surface that you are running on is suitable for their sensitive paws and spine.
Yes, Dachshunds are excellent family dogs. Not only are they friendly and lively companions, but they also have a clever, independent spirit and have been known to be quite protective of their families. Plus, they have very low energy requirements and don't need a lot of exercise, making them great family dogs in an apartment setting, or as part of an active family. They are also incredibly loyal, and enjoy spending time with their family and being involved in family activities.
Dachshunds are often labeled as intelligent dogs due to their eagerness to learn and their excellent memory. They are said to be very trainable and can be taught a variety of tricks. You can count on these dogs to be resourceful and creative in their problem-solving endeavors, displaying great problem-solving skills. Dachshunds have also been found to be astute learners and are described to be very fastidious in terms of obeying commands.
