Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are full of fun facts they were first bred in Germany hundreds of years ago! The German word for dachshund literally translates to 'badger hound' due to their purpose. Dachshunds have 3 sizes standard, miniature, and the recently discovered 'rabbit' size. They are often referred to as 'wiener dogs' and 'sausage dogs' because of their long, low shape.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds requires an understanding of the breed's common allergies, and a few specific steps to reduce exposure to the allergens. Dachshunds are known to be susceptible to allergies caused by dust, grass, pollen, and animal dandruff. To minimize irritation, house cleaning can be done regularly to reduce the buildup of dust and other allergens. This could include vacuuming, sweeping, mopping, and dusting of furniture. Bathing your Dachshund frequently can also reduce the risk of dander-triggered allergies.
Dachshunds are known for their hearty appetites, so there are plenty of healthy and nutritious options available when choosing what to feed your pup. A nutritionally balanced diet is best for Dachshunds, so look for foods that contain high quality proteins, essential vitamins and minerals. Fresh dry food is the most common food for Dachshunds, but you can also supplement with canned food. Treats that are low in calories and high in nutrition are also a great way to keep your pup happy and healthy.
Before you get your new Dachshund, be sure to prepare your home for your new furry friend. Start by puppy-proofing your home. Hide electrical cords and make sure all hazardous objects are out of reach. Make sure all household products like detergents, cleaning supplies, and medications are tucked away safely. Next, get the necessary items you will need for your pup, such as food and water bowls, a bed, toys, crate, and a collar.
It's difficult to definitively classify Dachshunds as either big or small since there can be differences in size depending on the breed. Generally speaking, these dogs tend to be on the smaller side, but with some reaching upwards of 20-30 pounds, they could be considered bigger than other toy breed dogs. Ultimately, the best way to assess whether a Dachshund is considered big or small is to compare it to the average weight of its breed.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are known for their energetic personalities and love of exercise, so they make great running buddies. Just be sure to take the necessary safety precautions and always keep your pup on a leash, as they may be prone to chasing small animals. Furthermore, start your runs slow and gradually increase the intensity to give your pup time to build up their stamina. It's also important to pay attention to your pup's comfort level. If your pup tires easily or starts to lag behind, it's time to head back home.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds are known for being friendly towards other pets. They can usually get along with other pets, especially if they are raised together. However, it is important to supervise, as they can sometimes view smaller animals as prey due to their hunting nature. Positive reinforcement and training could be beneficial in creating an environment where all pets can coexist harmoniously. While their temperaments may be different, Dachshunds are often very affectionate and thrive in multi-pet households with proper guidance from their owners.
It depends on the age, breed, training goals, and the individual Dachshund's personality, energy level, and learning style. Generally speaking, a Dachshund puppy requires between 10-15 minutes per day while an adult Dachshund would benefit from approximately 30-45 minutes of training each day. Additionally, Dachshunds benefit from obedience and agility training, as well as play time to keep their minds active. When training, it's important to keep the sessions short and engaging with rewards to make the training enjoyable.
