Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are intelligent, active dogs that require daily mental stimulation and exercise. They have a long and low body structure which gives them a distinct and charming appearance. Generally, they get along well with humans, and most Dachshunds are loyal, alert, and friendly. As a small dog breed, they are generally good apartment dwellers, as long as they get enough outdoor time for their energetic spirit. However, they need consistent training and socialization at an early age to ensure their good behavior.
Dachshunds are considered to be moderate shedders, meaning they will shed more than other non-shedding breeds, but less than a more heavy shedding breed. They will require regular brushing to help manage the shedding, and it depends on if they are the wire-haired or smooth-haired variety as to how much fur is being shed. Wire-haired Dachshunds may require more frequent brushing as their fur can be a bit coarser than their smooth-haired counterpart.
Dachshunds are able to enjoy a variety of food options. Their diet should be mainly composed of high quality dry kibble that is made specifically for smaller breeds like Dachshunds. You may also choose to supplement their diet with wet food and treats like raw vegetables, cheese, fruits, and other cooked meats. When it comes to treats, be mindful that Dachshunds are prone to gaining weight; so it is important to only feed them treats in moderation.
Before getting a Dachshund, you should consider purchasing essentials such as a leash, collar or harness, food and water bowls, a bed, toys, treats, and a brush. Even if you plan to let your Dachshund roam freely in your yard, a leash is still recommended in case you have to take them safely out of dangerous situations. A collar should have an identification tag and a harness can be used for walks. Food and water bowls should be stainless steel, as these are less likely to tip over, and they can easily be cleaned.
Dachshunds are a small breed that usually reach a height between 6 to 9 inches and an overall weight of between 16 to 32 pounds. Variations in size can depend on factors such as gender, age, and breed type. Typically, standard dachshunds tend to be Heavier and longer than miniature dachshunds. It is important to bear in mind that dogs in this breed can continue to fill in until they are two years old, so if a dachshund appears smaller than its larger counterparts it may still be growing.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are an energetic, athletic breed that loves to get out and about and stay physically fit. With necessary warm up and cooldown activities, and regular breaks, it can be incredibly beneficial for your pup to take leisurely runs. If your pup becomes easily tired, you may want to start with short runs and slowly build up. However, if your pup loves to run, you may want to make sure they don’t overexert themselves and certain breeds are better suited if running a lot.
Dachshunds can get along with other pets, especially if they have been properly introduced and given time to get used to one another. Many Dachshunds are social and enjoy being around cats, birds, and other small animals that they can interact with. Of course, it's important to supervise them when they are in each other's presence and take the necessary safety precautions. With patience and consistency, it's possible to help your Dachshund form a friendship with other pets.
Yes, Dachshunds are well-known for being among the smartest of dogs in many circles. They are loyal, often learn quickly, and can be trained effectively. Through proper socialization, Dachshunds can sometimes even command a level of understanding commensurate with that of higher-functioning breeds. Their intelligence is such that they can adapt easily to the demands of their owners, provided they receive the needed attention. They can learn to respond to commands, even though they’ll often test their boundaries.
