Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are classified as hound dogs and were originally bred to hunt small game like rabbits and badgers. They are medium-sized, short-haired dogs with long bodies and short legs, making them especially well-suited for pursuing their quarry underground. Dachshunds come in a variety of colors and coat lengths, and they can easily be trained.
Generally, Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic, as they can still cause an allergic reaction in some individuals. There has been some speculation that some dachshunds with a specific type of coat may be less likely to trigger an allergic reaction. Although there may be a few dachshunds with a lower allergen count, there is no guarantee that any particular breed of dachshund will be hypoallergenic. It is best to consult a veterinarian before deciding to keep a dachshund if one has an allergy to animals.
Dachshunds, also known as "wiener dogs" or "sausage dogs," typically eat a diet that contains a combination of dry kibble, wet canned food, and healthy treats. High-quality dry kibble and wet canned food should meet all of the nutritional requirements for adult dachshunds, as well as provide them with additional fiber that can help to reduce hairballs. A dachshund's diet should be tailored to provide the right combination of carbs, proteins, and nutrients.
To ensure that your transition with your new Dachshund runs smoothly, it's important to prepare prior to bringing the pup home. Start by purchasing all the necessary supplies such as a bed, crate, leash, food and water dishes. You should also decide where in your home your pup will sleep and how you plan on potty training them. Additionally, research and speak to your veterinarian, groomer, animal behaviorist, friends, and family members who have owned Dachshunds for advice.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered to be small dogs. They typically range from 8 to 9 inches in height at the shoulder and weigh in at an average of 16 to 32 pounds. Typical characteristics of a Dachshund include being long and thin with short legs, and having large ears. They are also considered to be a very loyal breed of dog that loves to run and play. Dachshunds can be a great companion with a lot of love and affection to give.
Dachshunds are an energetic breed of dog, typically needing more exercise than many other breeds. While this varies by individual, they generally need at least 30 minutes to an hour of exercise each day. This can come in the form of walks, runs, or playtime with their owners, as well as some mental stimulation. Given the size of their breed, they are well-suited to indoor play as well. Since Dachshunds have long bodies, it is important to be conscious of their backs and joints when exercising, as extreme activity can be difficult for them.
Dachshunds are known to be great family members, including around children. They are loving, affectionate, and have a lively personality, making them fun to have around. They are low-maintenance and generally get along well with all members of the family. However, it is important to remember that they need just as much care, supervision, and attention as any other breed when it comes to introducing them to young children. Dachshunds have a big bark but are typically not considered aggressive or overly protective towards people.
Training a Dachshund is similar to training any dog and should begin as soon as you bring your pup home. You must be consistent, patient, and reward positive behaviors. Start by teaching basic commands like 'sit', 'stay', and 'come', which will build a foundation of communication between you and your pup. You should also work on leash training to teach your pup proper walking etiquette. Acclimate your Dachshund to your home by helping them to become familiar with their area and any other pets they may encounter.
