Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are one of the most unique and interesting dog breeds. Their signature low-riding, long-bodied frame and short legs are quite captivating, and their personality is equally endearing. These loyal and lovable pups have been adored by dog lovers since the 1500s, and are the perfect pet for those with moderate energy levels. Dachshunds are small but surprisingly brave. Despite their small size, they are as loyal and protective as any guard dog.
No, unfortunately Dachshunds are not non-shedding dogs. They are actually known for their heavier coats. These dogs will shed year-round, and some may experience seasonal excess shedding. Owners should expect some amount of fur around the home, especially during high-shedding seasons. While brushing your Dachshund regularly can help control the volume of fur, it will not completely help stop the shedding. So, if you're looking for a non-shedding breed, the Dachshund probably isn't the best fit for you.
Dachshunds should not be given fatty table scraps, bones, chocolate, grapes, raisins, yeast dough, pitted fruits, onions or garlic as these foods can cause digestive upset, vomiting or even worse. Also, it's best to avoid feeding your Dachshunds foods with high levels of salt, as this can lead to serious health problems like kidney damage or seizures. In addition, Dachshunds should not be given certain raw foods such as raw fish, raw meat or raw eggs. These can contain bacteria that can cause food poisoning.
Before welcoming a Dachshund into your home, it is essential to purchase some basic items. A comfortable insulated dog bed with cushioned sides is important for offering your puppy a cozy spot. Additionally, a good quality chew toy is vital for keeping your Dachshund active and entertained. Food and water dishes are also necessary. A leash and collar are ideal for walks and other outdoor activities. A brush or comb for grooming should also be purchased. Finally, you may want to get pet-safe cleaning solutions for any accidents that may occur.
Dachshunds come in two sizes: Standard and Miniature. The Standard size Dachshund can range in height from 8 to 9 inches and in weight from 16 to 32 pounds. The Miniature size Dachshund typically ranges in height from 5 to 6 inches and 6 to 10 pounds in weight. Variations within these sizes may exist depending on the lineage of the Dachshund. Factors such as diet, exercise, and general health care affect the size of a Dachshund.
Walking your Dachshund can be beneficial for both mental and physical activities. Ideally, you should strive to walk your Dachshund for at least 30 minutes a day. Of course, the exact amount of time varies from dog to dog depending on their size and energy level. Generally, it's best to take your pup out for multiple short walks instead of just one long one each day. If they seem to get bored after a few minutes, return home and then try again later. Walking your Dachshund in new places is also a great way to keep them stimulated.
Dachshunds can make wonderful pets for first-time owners! They are loyal, adoring dogs and can easily fit into small-scale living spaces. With their small size and relatively adaptable temperaments, Dachshunds are often an ideal pick for those who are breaking into dog ownership. That said, Dachshunds require just as much care and commitment as other canine companions. Despite their small size, they need regular exercise, socialization, and proper training, all of which are necessary when it comes to a successful pet-owner relationship.
The exact amount of time you need to dedicate to training Dachshunds per day will depend upon the age of your dog and the particular behaviors you'd like to train. Generally speaking, it's a good idea to begin with a few short training sessions lasting roughly 15 minutes each day. As your Dachshund becomes better trained and more adept at understanding commands, you can move on to longer sessions lasting up to an hour. Training sessions will likely need to vary in length depending on the kind of command you're attempting to teach.
