Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are unique among all other dog breeds due to their low-slung long bodies and short legs. The breed is famously known as the “hot dog” or “sausage dog”, thanks to its shape and size. Dachshunds can also hunt, with their keen sense of smell once used to hunt badgers in their native Germany. Dachshunds are also known for their goofy personalities and are often very playful and loyal to their owners.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds can be tricky, as these dogs have a heavy undercoat that can trigger reactions in some people. To limit allergic reactions, begin by brushing your Dachshund's coat regularly to reduce the amount of fur particles that float around in the air. You can also install an air filter system in your home and change your household cleaning habits to use products that don't trigger a reaction; a professional air filtration system can help filter out allergens like pollen or pet dander.
Yes, Dachshunds have some special dietary needs that should be taken into account. Generally speaking, these little guys require a high-quality dog food that is lower in protein and fat than other breeds would. Dachshunds can also benefit from a diet supplemented with quality sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which helps to keep their joints healthy and agile. A source of probiotics can help a Dachshund's digestive system process its food, and pet owners might consider adding probiotics to their pet's diet.
Before bringing your new Dachshund home, it's important to make sure you're prepared with the essential items. A comfortable doggy bed for your pup to relax in, such as a supportive memory foam mattress with a cozy blanket, can help your pup feel at home. Having food and water dishes specifically for your pup and high quality food will ensure your Dachshund is well nourished. A few safe toys for your pup to chew, play and explore can also be a great way to keep them entertained.
A Dachshund puppy's size is largely determined by its breed, age, gender, and overall health. Most Dachshunds are limited to a height range of 8-9 inches, though some may be bigger or smaller. As a puppy, a Dachshund could weigh between 5-10 pounds, but will reach an adult weight of 16-32 pounds, though this will also depend on its height. It's best to consult with an experienced veterinarian and experienced breeder to ensure your puppy will remain within the accepted size parameters for its breed.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running if they are in good physical health. Make sure they have a leisurely warm-up period before going for your run so their muscles can stretch and grow accustomed to the activity. Avoid running in excessively hot or cold weather and keep an eye on your Dachshund's breathing if it starts to become heavy, give them a break. Consider running on soft surfaces like grass or dirt, rather than pavement, to protect their sensitive feet. Take extra care to look out for obstacles like branches and rocks that could scratch their delicate skin.
Generally yes, Dachshunds often make good companions to other pets. They are friendly, intelligent, and can easily be trained. With proper socialization to other animals and ongoing desensitization, Dachshunds can learn to accept and even enjoy having other pets in the home. However, Dachshunds may be more prone to shyness or aggression than some other breeds, so it's important that they get used to new pets slowly. With patience and the right techniques, Dachshunds can be an easy addition to multi-pet households.
Training any breed of dog comes with its own unique challenges, and a Dachshund is no different. While these dogs can be considered relatively easy to train and have a reputation for being loyal and friendly, they also require patience and consistency, as they tend to be strong-willed and mischievous. Proper socialization can help ensure your Dachshund is obedient and learns commands more quickly.
