Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a unique breed of dog best known for their long, sausage-like bodies and short legs. The breed belongs to the working class, which includes dogs bred to hunt, protect and guard their owners' property. The characteristic shape the Dachshund is known for allows them to thoroughly investigate groundhog holes and other enclosed spaces, although they have been known to hunt above-ground game as well. Dachshunds are also incredibly loyal and docile companion dogs, making them the perfect choice for any home.
Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. Generally speaking, these dogs, while having a low-shedding coat, are not considered to be hypoallergenic. Since all dogs can produce allergens to some degree, it is important to remember that no particular breed of dog is completely free of allergens. It may be possible to find a Dachshund that produces less dander or allergens than other similar breeds, but due to the nature of their coat, Dachshunds are not typically considered to be hypoallergenic.
Dachshunds are generally a healthy breed, but they do have some dietary needs which are important to consider when caring for them. These include needs such as a balance of proteins, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats. They may also require higher levels of certain vitamins and minerals, such as calcium for strong bones. Premium dog food is also recommended, as this can help address any potential allergies your dog may have.
Preparing to bring a new Dachshund into your home is an exciting endeavor! To help get you and your new pup off on the right paw, start by visiting a reputable breeder or animal shelter to make sure you’re getting a healthy pup. Once you bring your pup home, make sure you’ve got the basics covered—a bed, collar, leash, food, water bowls, and puppy safe toys.
Dachshunds may not be considered big dogs by comparison to breeds such as St. Bernards and Great Danes, but they are medium-sized dogs that can range from approximately 8-17 pounds in weight and 8-9 inches in height. Even though they may be small, Dachshunds are known to have just as much energy and love for play and activity as any other breed. They are known to fit comfortably in smaller homes and don't require a lot of outdoor space, but they do have larger personalities and are still very capable of giving and receiving affection.
While some Dachshunds may enjoy swimming, it is generally not recommended due to their body structure and size. The Dachshund's long body and short legs make it difficult for them to move confidently and efficiently in the water and they are at a greater risk for injury. If you want to take your Dachshund out into the water, you should closely monitor them and not let them venture out too deep, especially if an aquatic activity is not something they have usually done often.
Dachshunds are considered to be an excellent breed for families with children, and they usually get along very well with kids. Their friendly, loyal nature makes them very affectionate and loving companions, especially for children. Dachshunds are also intelligent and learn quickly, which helps when they are around kids who have not yet learned how to properly interact with animals. Furthermore, their size makes them great for smaller yards and mild climates, while their short coat means they don't require a great deal of grooming.
Training dachshunds is a great way to keep them happy and healthy, but there is no universally accepted answer to how many minutes of training they should get each day. Some experts recommend at least 15-20 minutes of focused training per day, while others suggest that more time should be devoted to training in order to adequately address the dog's particular needs. Longer, more consistent training is thought to have a greater chance of producing the desired outcomes, and the amount of time necessary will depend on the goals being sought and the level of difficulty being faced.
