Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are classified as hound dogs, more specifically as a breed of short-legged, long-bodied dogs. Dachshunds are popular pets and can be found in many types and sizes, including standard, miniature, and sometimes even in between breeds known as Tweenies. The breed is often recognized for its distinct appearance, including their long body, powerful head, and short legs. They often have a long, tapered muzzle, and may have a curled tail or straight one.
The Dachshund coat is typically extremely short and smooth, but you can also find longhaired Dachshunds with a wavy and/or curly split coat. They tend to have a lot of shedding throughout the year, so regular grooming is often necessary. Their coats are usually seven to nine inches long, but long-haired Dachshunds typically have coats about twice as long. While they don't need to be bathed very often, their coats should still be brushed regularly.
Every dog has different nutritional needs and there is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to what's best for your Dachshund. However, there are some important things to consider when selecting the ideal dog food for your pup. When choosing a dog food it's important to look for a formula that is specifically formulated for small breeds like Dachshunds. This type of food will contain smaller sized kibbles that are easier for their small mouths to chew and digest.
Preparing for a new Dachshund can be exciting yet overwhelming. The best way to get off on the right foot is to do your research. Find information on the best type of food to feed them, how much exercise they should be getting, and proper training techniques. Additionally, you will want to make sure that your home is Dachshund-proof. This includes covering exposed cords, making sure that the area around the potty is safe, and providing areas for them to exercise and chew.
The size of your Dachshund puppy will depend on a few factors. Generally speaking, miniature Dachshunds stand at around 8-11 inches tall when fully grown, while standard Dachshunds can grow to be between 12-14 inches tall and weigh up to 32 pounds. The size of the puppy will also depend on the size of its parents; if the puppy has large parents, it may also end up being larger than a puppy with small parents.
Generally speaking, it is not recommended that you take your Dachshund running as it can be potentially dangerous for your pet. While Dachshunds are known for their athleticism, the average adult size should not be taken on any long running trips as the impact from running can cause serious harm to their spinal disks as their long backs are a prominent feature of their breed. Additionally, exercise should be kept to a moderate level for a Dachshund as they are prone to cardio issues.
Dachshunds typically have an energetic and extroverted personality which makes them enjoyable to have as part of the family. As with every breed, once it is socialized properly and correctly introduced to other pets, it can learn to live harmoniously with the other occupants of the home. Generally, Dachshunds are known to get along well with other animals, with the proper amount of supervision and training.
Dachshunds can certainly be considered smart, as their intelligence and problem-solving skills are generally strong. They have a natural curiosity and can learn commands and tricks quite easily. In fact, many dog owners report that it was not too difficult to housebreak their dachshunds. When trained properly, these dogs have the potential to excel at many dog sports and activities such as agility trials, obedience trials, flyball, and canine freestyle.
