Questions & Answers

They have a long, sleek body with short legs, giving them an unusual and distinctive silhouette. Dachshunds were originally bred as scent hounds to track and hunt down animals, however, today they are kept as beloved companions. Another distinctive characteristic of the Dachshund is their intelligence, which makes them easy to train. They are also loyal and affectionate, forming close bonds to their owners.
While there is no guarantee that owning a Dachshund will not lead to allergies, they are considered a low-allergen breed, which means that the amount of allergens they produce is generally lower than other dog breeds. Before you decide to get a Dachshund, it is important to consider any allergies you or your family members may have. If you find there is a greater likelihood of causing a reaction, then it may be worth exploring other dog breeds that have a lower allergen count.
Dachshunds should not be fed human foods, especially highly processed snacks like chips and candy. Some people-foods can even be toxic for Dachshunds and should definitely be avoided, including grapes, raisins, onions, garlic, and avocado.

Prior to getting your Dachshund, it's important to take some steps to ensure you're prepared to welcome your new furry friend. Begin by investing in a safe, comfortable and durable bed for your Dachshund to sleep on and play in. Also purchase chew toys, water and food bowls, food, treats, and a collar and leash. Research your breed of Dachshund and find out which type of grooming they require, how often they need to be bathed, and any special health considerations you need to be aware of.

Dachshunds are unique in that they actually have a range of reactions to water. Some dachshunds have a natural love of swimming, others may simply tolerate it, and yet others may outright hate it. It is important to remember that all individual dogs are different, and, as such, their preferences may not be easily predicted. When introducing a dachshund to swimming, it is best to begin slowly and make sure the initial experience is positive this way, your pup can be taught to have a positive association with the activity.

Training your Dachshund can be a rewarding experience, but it does require some patience. Start by enrolling in a basic obedience class which will provide your pup with tools to gain a better understanding of commands and manners. Make sure to motivate your dog with treats and verbal praise to keep them interested and excited for lessons. When you have time and privacy with your pup, start to introduce commands one at a time and practice on a regular basis for the best results. Teaching your pup to walk properly is also important and instrumental in curbing any unwanted behaviors, digging or pulling on the leash.
