Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a very unique, interesting breed of dog. Their short legs and long bodies give them a special look and can make them stand out among other breeds. Dachshunds are not only adorable but also have strong personalities. They are intelligent, loyal and stubborn. They also tend to be quite independent and have very strong hunting instincts, making them excellent watchdogs.

Dachshunds do not typically cause allergies. However, as with any pet, some individuals can be allergic to dander, which can cause irritation of the eyes, nose, and/or throat. To determine if you may be allergic, the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (AAAAI) recommends seeing an allergist for an allergy skin test. The skin test can inform you as to whether you're allergic to dander, and if so, medications and other treatments may be prescribed that can help reduce your allergic reactions.
Dachshunds, or "wiener dogs," need a well-balanced diet and should consume a combination of moist and dry foods. High-quality protein sources should be included in their diet, including lean meats such as beef, chicken, turkey, fish, and eggs. Whole grains, such as oats, barley, and long-grain rice, provide important nutrition and energy. Vegetables are an important component, providing vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, and fiber, and suggested veggies for canines include carrots, green beans, and sweet potatoes.

You'll also need a bed compatible for your pup's size it's best to start small and upgrade to a larger bed as they grow. Food and water bowls are also essential, as well as a food to suit your pup and their particular requirements.

Dachshunds are often considered to be small or medium-sized breeds in comparison to larger dogs such as Labradors and Golden Retrievers.

A standard Dachshund can typically reach a significantly bigger size than its miniature counterpart, with an average weight of about 16 to 32 pounds for the former and 11 pounds or less for the latter.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running, however it is important to consider a few safety precautions before doing so. Start slow by introducing your Dachshund to short periods of running, no more than 10-15 minutes at a time. As with any exercise, make sure your pet is sensitive to the temperature and well hydrated. If you are running outdoors on hot days, pay extra attention to your pet’s hydration and temperature regulation. Also, look out for your pet's feet.
