Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a small but long-bodied hound breed that originated in Germany. They belong to a group of dogs known as the "Hound Group". Within the Hound Group, they are in the Scenthound subgroup, due to their amazing sense of smell. They are known for their short legs and long bodies that are well-suited to digging and getting into tight places. Dachshunds are friendly, playful and loyal, making them great companions and a perfect addition to any family.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds requires you to take extra precautionary steps to help reduce allergens in your home. Start by brushing your Dachshund regularly to reduce dander build-up and use an air purifier to help filter allergens in the air. You can also vacuum frequently and use a damp cloth to wipe down surfaces. Additionally, bathing your pet and having your carpets professionally cleaned can help improve air quality in the home. It's also helpful to create 'allergy-free' zones in your home where your pet isn't allowed.
Dachshunds should not be fed chocolate, raisins, alcohol, fatty foods, rawhide, bones, alcohol, grapes, and onions. These items are all toxic to Dachshunds and can cause issues such as digestive upset, intoxication, liver failure, or other serious health conditions. Additionally, you should ensure that your Dachshund always has access to clean, fresh drinking water and food.
Yes, Dachshunds have several special requirements that owners should be aware of. First and foremost, as they are prone to back problems, Dachshunds should not be allowed to climb any stairs, leap onto anything, or jump off of furniture. It is important to restrict their activity as much as possible to prevent potential injury, and you should always carry them to avoid possible trauma to their spines. Additionally, Dachshunds require daily exercise, primarily walking, in order to remain happy and healthy.
Dachshunds come in two sizes – standard and miniature. The standard size typically stands between 8-9 inches at the shoulder and weighs between 22-32 pounds. The miniature size usually stands 8 inches or less at the shoulder and weighs between 11-16 pounds. Although the two sizes of Dachshunds can look very similar, they usually have different personality traits – standard sizes often being more energetic and boisterous, while miniatures are often calmer and more relaxed.
Dachshunds need regular exercise to remain happy and healthy, so it is important to build a routine for them. As a breed, Dachshunds typically need about 30 minutes of exercise per day that includes walking and playing. This exercise not only keeps them physically fit, but also serves as a mental outlet for them. During walking time, it is important to keep them on a leash as their hunting instinct tends to be quite strong. When it comes to playing, try incorporating engaging activities like fetch or tug of war to help keep them entertained.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds tend to get along well with other animals. With proper socialization and training, Dachshunds can be quite friendly and accepting of their other furry friends. The key is to start the socialization process early and regularly in order to ensure that all interactions are positive. That being said, Dachshunds are also generally quite assertive and headstrong when meeting other animals, so it is important to keep the first interactions supervised. With patience and care, however, most Dachshunds prove to be excellent and loving animal companions.
