Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a type of domesticated dog that is also called a "wiener dog". It's a small, long-bodied breed of dog derived from a lineage of hounds and terriers. Dachshunds are known for their lively characters and alert, bold personalities. Typically they have short, stubby legs and pointed noses. Their coats come in a variety of colors and patterns, and they make great pets for people looking for an affectionate and independent dog. Dachshunds are great at recreational activities such as agility and rally trials.
Dachshunds have a unique coat that comes in a variety of different colors and patterns. The two coat types available are short hair and wire-haired and each type of Dachshund is recognizable by its unique look. The short haired Dachshund typically has long hair that lies flat against its body and a tail that lies in a flat curl. The wire-haired Dachshund's coat tends to be more feathery, but it is also kept relatively short with a topknot that adds interest.
Dachshunds are a popular, small breed of dog that is known for their short legs and long body. As with any other breed of dog, Dachshunds need a balanced diet that is tailored to their nutritional needs. Generally, these dogs should consume a high-quality, commercially available kibble that is specifically formulated for their size and activity level. Other options for a Dachshund’s daily diet include wet dog food, dehydrated raw dog food, fresh cooked meats, and vegetables.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund can be an exciting yet daunting task. To ensure your pup's health and safety as well as a successful transition into your home, start by researching their breed-specific needs. Then, create a safe space for them by puppy-proofing your home. If necessary, dog-proof any furniture and move any hazardous items such as chewing hazards, poisonous household items, and electrical cords out of reach. Then, set up areas for your pup to sleep, such as their own bed and/or a crate.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally considered to be small dogs. They have slender bodies, short legs, and a compact size which make them fit into the small dog category. In some cases, depending on the bloodline, Dachshunds can reach weights of up to 20lbs and 16 inches in height. But typically, the temperament and size of a Dachshund holds true to the small dog breed. They do not require as much exercise or space as larger breeds, and thrive within small living spaces and shorter walks.

They're naturally alert and enjoy a variety of activities such as fetching, tug of war, and obstacle courses. Their compact size and strong builds make them well-suited for a wide range of activities. When it comes to exercise, Dachshunds are highly motivated, which makes them great running, jogging, or biking companions. They also really enjoy swimming and retrieving games.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds can get along with children although they are not renowned for being great family pets. They tend to be quite playful and enjoy chasing kids around, as well as wrestling and playing tug-of-war with them. However, it is imperative that children are aware of how to interact with dogs, otherwise, the Dachshund may become stressed or scared. Furthermore, it is important to remember that 'Smallest of the Hound breeds', such as Dachshunds, can be snappy if frightened by loud noises or sudden movements.
Training a Dachshund can be a challenging yet rewarding endeavor.

Patience and consistency are essential for successful training, and even more so for some of the more headstrong breeds. With the proper attitude and the right training techniques, a Dachshund can learn basic commands and good social skills quickly. When it comes to more advanced behaviors, it will require more repetition and reinforcement practice, but they will usually respond well.
