Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a small, long-bodied hound-type breed of dog. Dating back to the 17th century, they were originally bred in Germany to hunt badgers. They have a playful nature and are known and beloved for their long body and short legs. Dachshunds have large erect ears, a deep chest, and a slightly curved tail. They come in a variety of colors and coat patterns. The three different sizes are standard, miniature, and kaninchen (German for "rabbit").
Dachshunds, commonly referred to as "wiener dogs" or "sausage dogs," are known to be a low shedding breed. While they have a short coat, they still may require some regular brushing and grooming. Dachshunds do not shed a lot compared to other breeds, and thus may be a good choice for those looking for a low shedding dog. However, it is important to remember that some Dachshunds may shed more than others.
Dachshunds should not be fed table scraps, fatty meats, bones, chocolate, grapes or raisins. These foods can cause serious health problems, including vomiting, diarrhea, or even organ damage. In addition, some people food can be difficult for the Dachshund's digestive system to process, leading to a painful upset stomach. Dachshunds should also not be overfed on commercially processed dog food, as this can lead to weight gain and other health problems.
To best prepare for your new Dachshund, you should start by ensuring your home is safe for the pup. Move any items that may be of risk to the pup, such as items lying around that they may chew. You'll also need to invest in a collar, a leash, and a few toys. The next step would be to research the breed to gain an understanding of their behaviors and temperaments. Knowing their general needs and expectations can help you better prepare for them.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally considered to be small dogs due to their short stature and average weight. Dachshunds typically weigh between 16 to 32 pounds and have a relatively short length when compared to larger breeds. Though Dachshunds come in two sizes, standard and miniature, they are still relatively small in comparison to breeds such as German Shepherds and Golden Retrievers. Some people even think of Dachshunds as a nearly toy sized breed, which further speaks to their small size.
Many Dachshunds enjoy swimming and some can even become quite good swimmers. Dachshunds have some of the same instincts and traits as their ancestors, the German badger hunters, which means they should be comfortable in the water. Nonetheless, not all Dachshunds like to swim, as swimming isn't a natural behavior for them. You can start introducing a Dachshund to the water to get them accustomed to it, but it is important to do so gradually and make sure you never force them into the water or activity.
Yes, Dachshunds can get along very well with other pets in the house. They thrive with companionship and typically form close bonds with their other pet buddies. As long as they are introduced early and in a safe, controlled manner, and if appropriate disciplinary techniques are used if any fights break out, most Dachshunds can develop strong relationships with other family members (furry or otherwise). Many owners even report that their Dachshund and other pet in the house act like a close-knit pack, running and playing together and generally just having a good time.
Dachshunds are often known for their intelligence, characterized by their energy, good temperaments, and natural curiosity. They are quick learners and usually respond very well to positive reinforcement training. They have superior problem solving skills and can be skilled enough to correctly figure out difficult scenarios, making them great family and companion pets. Dachshunds are often praised for their loyalty and willingness to please their owners, which further confirms that they are indeed a very smart breed of dog. Not only can they comprehend verbal commands, but they also excel at remembering and responding to visual cues.
