Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are small but hardy dogs that have long bodies and short legs. They originated in Germany as hunting dogs, and due to their size and strength, they make excellent family pets. Dachshunds are generally easy to train and have a friendly personality. They are fairly active and need regular exercise such as walks, runs and playtime. Dachshunds range in size from tiny Toy dogs to the standard size, and they come in a variety of coat colors and patterns. This breed requires regular grooming to help maintain its coat, nails and ears.
Dachshunds do not typically cause allergies. However, people with allergies may react differently to different breeds; allergies to dogs can vary depending on their coat type, dander, and other factors. Some people with allergies may find Dachshunds to present fewer allergy symptoms than other breeds, while others may find them more bothersome. Additionally, even if someone is not allergic to Dachshunds, they may still experience allergies to their fur, saliva, or other substances on their coat.
Dachshunds should not be fed any table scraps, candy, chocolate, fruits with pits, grapes, raisins, or treats that contain xylitol. Additionally, Dachshunds have an increased risk of developing gastro-intestinal disorders, so fatty foods or foods with a lot of preservatives should be avoided. If you want to feed your Dachshund a treat, opt for an approved dog biscuit. Just like with human food, moderation is key. Too much of any one kind of food can cause weight gain and other health problems.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund can be an exciting but daunting task. Start by pup-proofing your home by assessing areas that may be accessible to the pup; do a thorough sweep of any potential escape routes, or hazardous areas such as electrical cords or poisonous plants. As Dachshunds are a compact breed, you may consider revamping your home's storage systems to open up more floor space. Invest in some toys or a comfy bed for the puppy to enjoy.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally considered to be small dogs. They stand around 8-9 inches tall at the shoulders and typically weigh between 16-32 pounds. This makes them excellent lap dogs, and their small stature also helps them maneuver around furniture and up and down stairs. Dachshunds may not be the smallest dogs given that breeds such as Chihuahuas are considered to be toy breeds, but overall, Dachshunds are well known for their small size.
It is recommended that a Dachshund get at least 30 minutes of exercise per day. Typically, 15 minutes of walking and 15 minutes of playtime is a great combination. It may be possible to walk a Dachshund longer if they prove to be more active and have a higher level of energy. However, it is important not to overexert them, as they are a small breed and would not be able to handle too much activity. Make sure to adjust the exercise amount according to your Dachshund's age and health needs.
Yes, Dachshunds are excellent family dogs! They are known for their loyalty, intelligence, and playful nature, so they fit in well with families of all sizes and ages. They're generally good-natured and friendly, and usually get along with other pets. They are relatively low-maintenance, requiring moderate exercise, and they have minimal grooming requirements. They're also small enough to live in more compact homes. Dachshunds make great companions since they're highly trainable, love attention, and are devoted to their owners.
Dachshunds are considered to be smart dogs as they have strong senses and are generally quick thinkers. They have a great deal of mental acuity and can remember commands and patterns with ease. The breed is also eager to please and to perform, further indicating an aptitude for intelligence. Dachshunds are loyal, curious, and playful companions, and often enthusiastic learners. They respond very well to positive reinforcement training and are incredibly receptive to their owners’ commands.
