Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a popular breed of dog with unique personalities that are full of tenacity and intelligence. They are normally short haired, but can also come in wire-haired and longhaired varieties. Dachshunds are hunting dogs and used to be bred for their ability to hunt badgers and other burrowing animals. They are very loyal and affectionate with people, and make great companions. They usually thrive living in quieter environments, so younger, rowdier households may not be ideal for a Dachshund.
The coat of the Dachshund is usually short and smooth, with a glossy sheen that perks up its colors and provides a soft touch. It is most often seen in a single color with an occasional distinct marking or two, ranging from black, red, gray, white, and a variety of decorative colors or patterns and can be either solid or dappled. The coat is also more often than not wiry, hard, and dense, with some breeds possessing a softer undercoat.
Dachshunds require a balanced diet made up of high-quality dry food, wet food, and treats. It's important to feed them a diet that meets their nutritional needs, including proteins, carbohydrates, and various vitamins and minerals. When purchasing food, look for an all-natural brand that contains whole ingredients with no artificial or synthetic additives. If you choose to feed raw, or home-cooked meals, make sure the food is well-balanced and comprises mostly lean meat, some bone, and fresh vegetables.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund can be an exciting process. Start by designating an area the pup can call home. It's important to provide them with their own space, so set up a comfortable spot with a bed, a few toys, and some chew bones to keep your pup entertained! One of the most essential aspects of prepping for your new Dachshund is establishing boundaries.
Dachshunds come in two standard sizes: Standard, which typically weigh between 16 and 32 pounds, and Miniature, which typically weigh 11 pounds or less. They can also come in a unique variety known as the Kaninchen, or "Rabbit" Dachshund, which is between the two sizes and typically weighs between 11 and 16 pounds. As the smallest of the standard sizes, Kaninchen Dachshunds tend to be slightly less hardy than either Standard or Miniature.
Yes, Dachshunds are an active breed. They tend to be quite energetic and need regular exercise and mental stimulation to stay healthy and happy. They are known to be playful and make great companions. They especially love to be outdoors and can be quite independent when exploring. They also enjoy a good game of fetch and a brisk walk. Dachshunds make ideal running and jogging partners as well. Taking them along on shorter running sessions can provide valuable bonding experiences and exercise for both you and your pup.
Dachshunds can make wonderful pets for first-time owners as long as they are dedicated to providing them with the training, exercise, and love they need to thrive. Dachshunds are highly intelligent and have a strong desire to please their humans, meaning they can be house trained relatively easily. They have high energy levels and like to explore, so they may do well in a securely fenced outdoor space. This also helps to meet their need for regular exercise.
Dachshunds are intelligent, spunky, and brave. With the right approach, they can be trained to become obedient and trustworthy companions. Start with basic obedience and housebreaking. Introduce simple commands like sit, stay, and come, in a fun and playful environment. Reward your Dachshund with treats and lots of praise when they follow instructions or perform well. As your pet's level of obedience progresses, you can increase the level of difficulty of the commands. Socialization is also very important when training a Dachshund.
