Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are categorized as a small breed of hounds and are commonly known as 'hotdogs' or 'sausage dogs' due to their elongated bodies which resemble sausages. They can come in a variety of colors including black, brown, tan, and red. They are known for their variety of coat lengths, ranging from smooth-haired to wire-haired and longhaired. Dachshunds were originally bred in Germany to hunt badgers in their dens.
Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic. Although their short coats don't generally shed a lot of fur, they do have an undercoat and may still cause allergic reactions in some people. Some people with allergies to other types of dogs may find that they are not as sensitive to a Dachshund. Although this is not true of everyone, it is worth considering if you have allergies but really love the breed.
Dachshunds need a diet designed with their unique needs in mind to keep them healthy. A high-quality dry food specifically formulated for small-breed dogs is recommended. It should provide plenty of protein, fat, and carbohydrates to fuel their active lifestyle, as well as enough fiber and other nutrients to help them maintain a healthy weight. As for treats, make sure they are made with natural ingredients and don’t contain a lot of sugar or fat. Try offering healthy snacks like freeze-dried liver, fish, or cheese.
While Dachshunds are relatively adaptable and undemanding, there are a few special requirements to consider. They are a small breed that loves to dig and get into mischief if not given proper exercise, so they need consistent opportunities for physical activity. They also require regular grooming to ensure skin and coat health. Moreover, they are known for back issues and need to be kept from jumping or climbing stairs and kept to a healthy weight. Additionally, like many other dogs, they require regular veterinary visits for check-ups and preventive care.
Dachshunds, sometimes referred to as "weiner dogs," are a distinct, short-legged breed of dog with several sizes available for adoption. The standard Dachshund is usually about 8-9 inches tall at the shoulder and 12-15 inches long, and can weigh between 16-32 pounds. The miniature Dachshund weighs less, just 11 pounds, and stands only about 5-6 inches tall at the shoulder.
Depending on the energy level of your Dachshund, it is recommend to walk them between 15 minutes to an hour per day. Factors such as age, weather, and medical history should be taken into consideration when determining the best duration for each walk. Over-exercising a Dachshund can lead to overexertion and potential health complications down the road, therefore, it is best to opt for more frequent, shorter, and age-appropriate walks.
Yes, Dachshunds can make really wonderful companions for families with children. They are a breed that generally loves people and is known for being loyal and devoted to their owners. Additionally, Dachshunds are often affectionate and patient with kids. As long as they are properly socialized, Dachshunds should do very well in a household with children. Of course, like any breed, make sure to supervise your children when they are around your dog and help them learn how to interact with your pet safely and responsibly.
The amount of time necessary to properly train a dachshund depends primarily on the goals you have in mind and the skills you want the pup to learn. Generally, you should aim for no less than 15 minutes a day for basic training (like obedience commands such as sit/stay/come). But to shape more advanced behaviors and address problem areas like excessive barking, you may need as much as 30 minutes a day for problem behavior modification. Potty training may require additional time.
