Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an incredibly interesting breed of dog. They have a long and fairly unique history, being originally bred in Germany over 300 years ago in order to help with hunting. They have since become loved and popular worldwide as a family pet. Their most notable feature is their size; they have short legs that make them look almost sausage-like in shape, hence their name 'Dachshund' that literally translates to 'badger dog.' They tend to have long, sturdy bodies and are surprisingly fast over short distances. Their big personalities and loyalty make them wonderful companions too.
Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic due to the fact that their fur sheds constantly. Their long hair contains allergens that can be released into the air and cause a reaction in sensitive individuals. In addition, those with allergies to pet dander may still experience an allergic reaction when in contact with a Dachshund. This is because their coat adds an additional layer of allergens that, when combined, can present an elevated risk.
Yes, Dachshunds have certain dietary needs that are important to keep in mind. Since they are a small breed, they require food suited to their size – typically smaller bites that will fit easily within their mouths. They also tend to be prone to overeating, so it's important to carefully monitor the portions they are given. Furthermore, Dachshunds' diets should include a variety of protein sources, complemented with a variety carbohydrates and fiber to keep them regular and healthy.
Dachshunds have some specific physical requirements that should be considered when either adopting or purchasing one of these dogs. They may be small dogs, but they have long, strong legs that require plenty of exercise, and a fairly long body that can have associated health issues, so a consistently healthy diet is vital. As with any breed, regular vet visits are a key part of their overall health maintenance. Their tan and black or white and brown short-haired coats require only minimal grooming, but they should be checked often for ear infections, parasites, and toenail trimming.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. A small Dachshund weighs up to 11 pounds and stands 8-9 inches tall at their shoulder. Interestingly, they come in two sizes: standard and miniature, with the miniature variation almost half the size of the standard. Despite their diminutive size, Dachshunds are strong, loyal, and smart, traits that earned them the nickname "The King of Dogs". While smaller in size, Dachsies are full of character and make wonderful companions and additions to any family.
Dachshunds can be surprisingly active and energetic — they may have short legs and stubby bodies, but they can keep up with some of the most active breeds when it comes to running, walking, and playing. Not only are Dachshunds active from a physical standpoint; they can also be quite quick mentally. They can learn complex tricks and commands with ease. When it comes to activity, Dachshunds will need daily walks and play times.
Dachshunds can make excellent family dogs, as long as they receive proper socialization and training. They typically get along well with children and can be very loyal and loving when raised among them. They tend to be lowto medium-energy dogs, and prefer to be in the same room as their families, making them great for extra snuggles with the kids. Dachshunds can exhibit a protective nature towards the family, but their smaller size can sometimes limit their ability to restrain overly rough play from younger kids.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered smart dogs. They are also known for being particularly alert and intuitive, capable of adapting to their environment and quickly learning how their owner would like them to behave. Dachshunds can be trained to complete various tasks and often demonstrate a strong ability to understand their owners' commands. Additionally, they are also classified as having much higher levels of obedience and intelligence than many other breeds, giving them an advantage when it comes to obedience and problem solving.
