Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are small yet mighty dogs with a lot of personality and an interesting history! Here are some fun facts about these quirky canines: they originate from Germany where they were bred to hunt badgers and rabbits; they come in two sizes; standard and miniature; and three coat varieties – smooth-haired, long-haired, and wire-haired.
The Dachshund's coat is unique in that it can come in a variety of colors and styles. Smooth-haired varieties of the Dachshund may have short, smooth coats that can be found in shades of red, black, creams, tan and chocolate. Meanwhile, wire-haired varieties often have a wiry outer coat, with a soft, dense undercoat, usually in shades of grey and yellow-red. The Longhaired variety of Dachshund has hairs that are finer, always longer, and come in a large variety of colors.
Yes, Dachshunds do have particular dietary requirements compared to other breeds. Unlike other breeds, they benefit from consuming food with more natural sources of protein and complex carbohydrates, as well as added fatty acids. Unfortunately, Dachshunds are prone to obesity, so it is important to ensure the food you are providing is specifically for weight management. Additionally, because their long body predisposes them to back problems, Dachshunds are usually better off eating several smaller meals throughout the day, rather than one large meal.
Preparing for your new Dachshund requires a few important considerations. First and foremost, make sure you have the necessary supplies, such as a collar, leash, food and water dishes, a bed, and toys. You should also plan on taking your Dachshund for regular vet checkups and vaccinations to ensure its health and wellbeing. Secondly, educate yourself on the Dachshund breed by reading up on its needs and behaviors. This includes understanding their unique dietary requirements, exercise needs, and social interaction standards. You should take into account its history and temperament traits as well.
Dachshunds come in a variety of sizes that depend on the breed, with the two most common being standard and miniature. The standard Dachshund will typically reach an adult weight of 16-32 pounds, with an average height of 8-9 inches at the shoulder. The miniature Dachshund is much smaller, usually reaching an average weight of 11 pounds or less and standing no more than 5-6 inches high at the shoulder.
Dachshunds are active and lively little dogs that need plenty of exercise throughout the day in order to stay healthy and happy. They enjoy daily walks and playtime in the backyard or at the park. It's beneficial to take them for a minimum of two thirty-minute walks a day as well as plenty of indoor play. If the weather permits, they can run and play fetch in the yard for at least thirty minutes per day.
Dachshunds can make fantastic first-time pets for owners with the right amount of commitment and training. Despite their small stature, they are loyal, spunky, and independent; and they generally thrive in both family and single-person households. Dachshunds are also relatively low-maintenance when it comes to grooming and exercise. They love regular play time and can be trained quickly, but do require daily walks and mental stimulation.
Training your Dachshund is a rewarding and important part of your dog’s life. First, you'll want to steer clear of using harsh corrections positive reinforcement like treats and affection are better methods. Start by introducing basic commands like “sit” and “down”. Pick a quiet area of your home and practice with your pup every day. Obedience classes or working with a professional pet trainer can also be beneficial for your pup. It's best to keep training sessions short (15 to 20 minutes) and focus on mastering one command per session.
