Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a lively, small breed of dog, originally bred to hunt small game, such as rabbits. Dachshunds have long, slender bodies, with short, stubby legs, and commonly come in two sizes: standard and miniature. Often referred to as “Wiener dogs”, Dachshunds have a signature hotdog-shaped appearance, with long muzzles and droopy ears. Their fur can come in a variety of colors, such as black, cream, reddish-brown and light brown.
Although there is no strictly hypoallergenic dog breed, Dachshunds are considered to be a low dander variety relative to other breeds. This means that the amount of shedding and the proteins in their dander are minimal, which can reduce allergic reactions in some people. Dander is the dead skin particles and saliva that all dogs produce and expel into the air. Dander can cause allergenic reactions in humans through contact or inhalation.
Dachshunds do indeed have special dietary needs. As a laid-back, small-sized breed, Dachshunds require well-balanced and calorie-conscious diets that provide the exact nutritional requirements that these dogs need. It is important to make sure that the meals you give your Dachshund are rich in protein, with some fat and minerals, as well as complex carbohydrates, which will provide your pet energy and promote strong and healthy bones. Your Dachshund may require a special diet for any medical reasons they may have, such as allergies or pancreatic issues.
Before becoming a Dachshund owner, you should get some essentials to ensure your pup has a comfortable and safe environment. Start by investing in a comfortable kennel or crate and fluffy, dog-friendly bedding. Next, be sure to stock up on food and food dishes, a water bowl, and a collar and leash before bringing your pup home. Additionally, toys to keep your pup entertained, grooming kits, potty-training materials, and waste bags are good items to have on hand.
Dachshunds are indeed considered small dogs. In fact, according to the American Kennel Club, the breed typically weighs less than 11 pounds, which classifies them as a small dog. Many people consider Dachshunds to be a toy breed, which is the smallest size of companion dog. It's important to note that while their size is small, their personalities are known to be big, often described as spunky, curious, and friendly.
Dachshunds are known for being energetic and active, and they enjoy daily exercise and stimulation for their minds and bodies. They love to explore and enjoy walks, playtime, and competing in various dog sports. These sociable dogs are great for jogging or biking with their owners and they love to accompany their family on trips and outings. While they can sometimes be independent, Dachshunds thrive with regular activity and interactive play. With a well-structured schedule, you can nurture a happy, healthy, and active lifestyle for your pup.
Dachshunds can make excellent family pets as they are typically friendly and loyal. They form close bonds with their families, so they can be very affectionate with children. They have plenty of energy, but also enjoy relaxing with their owners. Dachshunds also have a good temperament and do not tend to be aggressive, making them a great choice for homes with kids. However, keep in mind that you should always supervise your dachshund and your children together, as any breed can be unpredictable at times.
Training your Dachshund requires patience and consistency. Start off with small, simple tasks and provide positive reinforcement when your pup succeeds. Remember that they may be easily distracted, so keep training sessions short and encourage your pup with praise and treats. Positive reinforcement is more effective than punishing your pup for mistakes. To get your pup used to commands, use key words like "sit" or "stay". When they respond correctly, give them a treat or verbal affirmation. Be sure to practice the commands frequently, so that your Dachshund can become accustomed to them.
