Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a class of canine known as 'scent hounds.' Scent hounds are known for their ability to detect and follow scents, making them great hunting companions. Dachshunds are a bit unique amongst scent hounds as they are classified as a 'bassed' breed, meaning they have short legs and a long body. This makes them great at navigating tunnels, like badger dens, their traditional prey.
Dachshunds are generally considered a hypoallergenic breed of dog and as such they are likely not the cause of any allergies. Some people may be allergic to animals in general or more specifically to the dander (dead skin cells) or saliva of a pet. Additionally, allergies can vary even within breeds so it is impossible to say with certainty if a dachshund will or will not be the cause of allergies. To be certain whether or not any type of pet would cause allergies, a person should consult an allergist.
Dachshunds are known for having wonderful personalities and are a great addition to any family. To keep your Dachshund healthy, it's important to feed them a nutritious diet with high-quality ingredients. Aim for a balanced, species-appropriate diet of real meat, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Start by looking for foods specifically designed for Dachshunds. Since these breeds tend to gain weight easily, look for lower-calorie foods with higher protein percentages.
Before getting a Dachshund, it is important to make sure you have all the essentials. This includes a collar, a leash, a bed, food and water bowls, chews for teeth-cleaning, and chew toys. To help limit accidents in the house, it is also smart to invest in potty training pads and perhaps some puppy gates to prevent your pet from accessing certain areas. Additionally, to protect your puppy from illnesses, make sure vaccinations are kept current, and have preventive measures like flea and tick prevention products and heartworm prevention medicine, as directed by your vet.
Dachshunds, also known as wiener dogs, typically grow to be between 8 and 9 inches tall and weigh anywhere between 16 and 32 pounds. While size does vary within the breed, most standard-sized Dachshunds will be between 16 and 32 pounds. Depending on the size of the dog, the average life expectancy of the breed is between 12 and 15 years. Dachshunds come in three size varieties: standard, miniature, and kaninchen, each with slightly different weight ranges.
Dachshunds require moderate amounts of exercise and generally need at least 20 minutes of activity a day. Depending on the age and size of your Dachshund, these activities can include walking, playing, running, and swimming. It is important to note that Dachshunds can suffer from back issues, so their exercise routine should be monitored closely. Providing a safe and conducive environment for your pet is a must for their physical and mental well-being.
Dachshunds are known for being loyal, intelligent, and affectionate family companions. They are usually friendly and have lots of love to give, making them great with kids. With proper socialization and training, Dachshunds can learn to obey commands and interact well with children. Given their size, they tend to be gentle and can be taught to play in a manner that is safe for both the dog and the child.
Dachshunds are definitely smart and intuitive dogs. While not all dogs of this breed have the same level of intelligence, many of them are highly trainable, and can learn tricks and commands quickly. They are also very observant and enjoy the challenge of keeping their owners on their toes. Many Dachshunds excel at agility and obedience training, and their innate curiosity and determination make them rewarding for their owners. Dachshunds can be trained to stay and come when called, to fetch and bark on command, and to react to voice commands.
