Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a breed of hound that is long in body and short in legs, making them often referred to as a "sausage dog". This breed originated in Germany as a working-dog for hunting, and today they remain a popular breed for their affectionate and loyal personality. Dachshunds vary in size, with standard-sized dogs typically weighing up to 32 pounds, and miniature sizes under 11 pounds.
Dachshunds are not generally considered hypoallergenic, as they can produce a notable amount of dander when they shed, which can cause allergic reactions in some people. This is true for all breeds of dogs, as each one has its own particular shedding pattern. When selecting a dog, it is important to take into consideration the individual's dander and saliva production, which can determine the severity of any allergies. Furthermore, regular grooming of a dachshund, along with frequent vacuuming and dusting of the living area, can help alleviate any potential allergic reactions.
Dachshunds should not be fed anything containing grapes, raisins, garlic, onions, or any kind of nuts as these can be toxic to the breed. Additionally, they should not have access to any type of chocolate, sugar, dairy products, or sweet treats as these items can potentially harm their digestive systems. Dachshunds should also avoid processed treats, rawhide, and other treats with preservatives or artificial flavoring as they have been known to cause intestinal blockages.
Dachshunds have special needs that may require extra attention and care from their owners. They are known to have a high energy level, so it is important to provide plenty of daily exercise and mental stimulation for these spunky dogs. It's also important to take them for regular checkups to the vet, as they are prone to certain health issues, including back problems. Socialization is also key for them, as too much seclusion can lead to behavioral issues.
Although Dachshunds are fairly small dogs, typically ranging between 8 and 30 pounds, they're not necessarily considered to be small dogs. Generally speaking, they're considered to be a medium-sized breed. However, it's important to remember that medium dog sizes can vary significantly depending on the individual dog. Certain individual Dachshunds may be larger than average, making them appear larger than they actually are and more closely resemble big dogs.
Certainly! There are a few key points to keep in mind when taking your Dachshund running, however. First, you should be sure to keep the running distance to a minimum to avoid any excessive wear-and-tear on their little legs. You should also look into different leash extensions that look like a harness or belt—these will allow your Dachshund to run up ahead safely and give them the freedom that they will enjoy. Secondly, be sure to check if the local area has any temperature restrictions as most Dachshunds enjoy milder climates.
Dachshunds are generally known to be good with other animals. Proper socialization while your Dachshund is still a puppy is key to having a successful relationship with other pets in the home. When introducing your Dachshund to a new animal for the first time, it's important to do so in a controlled and non-threatening environment. If supervised and trained appropriately, Dachshunds can learn to bond with cats, birds, rabbits, and other small pets.
Training a Dachshund is not necessarily easy, but it is achievable with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. This intelligent breed loves to learn, so they are motivated and eager to please. It requires dedication and creativity to come up with challenges that will keep their attention long-term. To start, create a predictable daily routine. Once the basics such as sit, stay, wait, and come are learned, you can move onto more advanced skills such as fetch, nap, and agility work.
