Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are small dogs belonging to the hound group. They have a long body and short legs, which gives them an endearingly low-slung profile. Their hunting instincts can be so strong that they should be kept on a leash when outside of the home. The two varieties of Dachshunds are the short-haired version and the long-haired version. Each of these types has a different look and personality. Short-haired Dachshunds are alert, active and loyal, making great watchdogs.
Dachshunds typically have a single or double coat. Their outer coat is usually straight and short while their undercoat may be either short or long. Depending on the length of the coat, they require weekly brushing and monthly trimming. The coat is also known for its signature colors, with a bright red, cream, fawn, or wheat base along with black or tan markings. Dachshunds are well-suited for colder weather, as their coats are very thick and offer ultra-insulation.
Dachshunds are known for their big personalities, friendly dispositions, and energetic nature and they will need the right diet in order to stay healthy and live up to their potential. Proper nutrition is an important part of a dachshund's overall wellbeing and daily routine. In general, a well-balanced diet for dachshunds should include high-quality dry commercial food that is specially formulated for dogs of a small breed.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund can be a fun, but important job. First, you should make sure that all of your personal possessions like books, small electronics, and other objects are safe and out of your pup's reach. You'll also want to ensure that your home is puppy-proofed by securing items like wires and cords and removing any toxins or sharp objects from the floor. Additionally, you'll want to establish a designated area that will become your puppy's den. Place his kennel there and let him get accustomed to the space.
Dachshunds come in a variety of sizes ranging from miniature to standard. A miniature Dachshund typically weighs between 11 and 16 pounds, while a standard Dachshund is classified as being over 16 pounds. The miniature size is further divided into a standard miniature and a "tweenie", which is between 11 and 14 pounds. Additionally, there is also the toy size, also known as the teacup, which is generally under 10 pounds.
Dachshunds are a small breed of dog that have muscled bodies and short legs that were bred for chasing down badgers and other burrowing animals. Therefore, they may not be natural swimmers, however, many Dachshunds do enjoy the water. With proper socialization and training, they can learn to paddle and explore the water and can even be taught to retrieve items from the water. Some Dachshund owners will even give their Dachshunds a life jacket to help them swim more confidently and safely.

With a keen eye, hearing and a strong sense of smell, they are easily able to detect and pursue small animals hidden in unusual places. This ability to think ahead and navigate unfamiliar terrain requires intelligence and problem-solving skills. Additionally, they are a very loyal breed.
