Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are smart, loyal, and affectionate dogs that make wonderful family pets. They are a long-bodied, short-legged breed, giving them the nickname of "Wiener Dog". This breed is quite social and loves to be involved in family activities, and loves to go on walks and play in the backyard. It's important to remember that due to the Dachshunds' long back, it's important to limit their jumping and running, so as to not strain the spine.
Whether or not a Dachshund will cause you to have allergies depends on the individual person and their susceptibility to allergens. Dachshunds do have hair, like any other dog breed, and while it is generally low in allergen levels, it can still cause some people allergies if they are particularly sensitive. It is recommended to spend time with the specific Dachshund in question before committing to adopting them if you suffer from allergies, or if you are particularly worried.
Dachshunds should not be fed table scraps, chocolate, grapes, or other items that are toxic to dogs. Overfeeding can also be a concern for this breed as it can lead to serious health problems, so just stick to a healthy, balanced diet created specifically for Dachshunds. To avoid potential digestive problems, it's important to feed your Dachshund high-quality, grain-free food and kibble formulated for their unique metabolism and size.
Before you welcome a Dachshund into your life, it's important to make sure your home is prepared for a new pet. Some essentials to pick up include a sturdy collar with ID tag, a leash, food and water bowls, treats, puppy food, a bed, grooming materials such as a brush and nail clippers, and toys to keep your pup entertained and prevent boredom. If you plan to potty train, you'll also need to invest in puppy pads. A Dachshund-proofed play area will also come in handy to ensure your pup is safe.
Dachshunds are recognized by the American Kennel Club with three sizes, standard (16-32 pounds), miniature (up to 11 pounds) and kaninchen (4-5 pounds). While the breeds' body types are similar and many traits are consistent among all sizes, each has its own unique characteristics. The standard size tends to have greater strength and stamina, while the miniature is slightly smaller and more agile. The kaninchen is the tiniest and often described as the most hyperactive and alert of the three.
Dachshunds are a lively breed and need daily exercise to stay both healthy and happy. As with any breed of dog, exercise requirements depend on the individual dog. Generally speaking, Dachshunds need around 30 minutes per day of moderate exercise and play. Add in additional activity during the day, such as interactive games, additional walks, and opportunities for your pup to explore outside or play with other dogs. Be sure to take your pup's age, overall health, and energy level into account when planning your activities.
Dachshunds can make wonderful and lovable companions for children. These little dogs are known for being loyal, making them an ideal companion for many families. They can be very gentle and playful with children, so they make a great family pet. However, it's important to note that Dachshunds may not be as tolerant of children's more boisterous behavior as some other breeds, so it's important to be mindful of this and ensure that young kids know how to handle the dog properly.
The amount of training for a Dachshund should depend on the specific needs of your pup. Generally, you should aim for around 10-15 minutes of training a day in multiple short sessions. While this might not sound like much, this can play an important role in teaching your pup basic obedience commands, reinforcing good behavior, and socializing your pup with other animals. To maximize learning potential, you should also break up the sessions into different activities such as working on commands, playing, and practicing planned scenarios.
