Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are undeniably lovable, with their distinct, elongated bodies and dashing good looks. Although diminutive, Dachshunds are brave and loyal–even relatively high-energy compared to other small dogs! The breed originates from Germany and known for having three coat varieties: smooth, wirehaired, and longhaired. While Dachshunds can be quite independent, they are keenly intelligent and benefit from training and become excellent family companions. Despite their size, they love to run and play, so daily walks and outdoor activities are beneficial.
Dachshunds are a unique breed of dog with a variety of coat types and colors. Unfortunately, they are not considered hypoallergenic. This means they are likely to cause allergic reactions in those who have sensitivities to pet dander. However, there are certain things pet owners can do to help reduce the risk of allergic reactions, such as frequent grooming and vacuuming to remove any dander or fur that may be left behind. Additionally, regular baths with a hypoallergenic shampoo can further reduce the risk of allergic reactions.
Dachshunds should not be fed chocolate, alcohol, coffee, tea, avocado, high-fat foods, or foods that are high in sugar. It is best to stick to high-quality dry dog food that is specially formulated for dachshunds, as this will provide them with all the necessary nutrients they need. Additionally, there are certain foods such as raisins, grapes, onions, macadamia nuts, garlic, and mushrooms, that are toxic to dogs and should be completely avoided.
Yes, Dachshunds do have a few special requirements that potential owners should take into consideration. These breeds need plenty of mental stimulation and exercise to stay engaged and content. They do have a tendency to become destructive if their minds and bodies are not kept active with appropriate activities. Additionally, Dachshunds should receive regular veterinary checkups to ensure optimal health, and they should be socialized around other animals and humans when young. Lastly, training is an important aspect to any dog's life, and is especially true for Dachshunds.
Dachshunds can have frames that range from relatively small to quite big, but this breed generally falls somewhere in the middle. They are considered small to medium-sized dogs and are one of the smaller breed show dogs. Even the largest Dachshunds usually measure no more than 16 inches tall and typically weigh an average of 22 to 32 pounds. Dachshunds can live happily in many different home environments, including in houses, apartments, and city homes.
Your Dachshund should be getting at least 30 to 45 minutes of exercise a day ideally split into a few shorter walks throughout the day! Depending on your pup's age, energy level, and overall health, you may want to spend more or less time walking. When taking your pup out, try to switch up their scenery to explore new places and challenge your pup mentally and physically. A change in the routine can help keep your pup engaged and ensure you're giving them the best possible care.
Dachshunds can make wonderful family pets due to their loyal, intelligent, and affectionate nature. Generally, a Dachshund will get along well with children, though proper socialization is necessary to ensure they are well-behaved. Dachshunds may be prone to barking and may not be the best fit for households with small children, since their energetic nature may make them a bit over-eager.
Training your Dachshund requires time, patience, and dedication. A good practice is to start with basic commands, such as sit, stay, come, and down. Start with very short training sessions and reward your pup for each successful command with treats and verbal praise. As your pup starts to understand the commands, you can increase their difficulty and the length of the training sessions. It's also important to be firm and consistent and use repetition during your sessions. Try to make the training fun and stimulating for your pup by using different locations, toys, and rewards.
