Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a class of small to medium-sized, short-haired hound-type dogs originating from Germany. They are a part of the hound family, which includes basset hounds, beagles, foxhounds, and other breeds. Dachshunds have the characteristic long body, short legs, long ears, and floppy tail that are unique to the breed. They come in a variety of colors and coat styles, though long-haired dachshunds are the most common.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds can be a challenge due to their potential for aggravating allergies. It is important to understand that Dachshunds are heavy shedders and can dander. It is highly recommended to regularly brush your Dachshund to help reduce the amount of airborne allergens produced by them. Additionally, it is suggested to purchase an air purifier that is designed to reduce pet dander and other airborne particles. Vacuuming and using furniture covers can help reduce the accumulation of pet hair and fur.
Dachshunds, like all dogs, require a healthy diet to maintain proper health and nutrition. A well-balanced diet for a Dachshund should consist mainly of a high-quality dog food specifically formulated for small breeds and loaded with lean proteins and essential fatty acids. Additionally, you can mix in a variety of human foods like cheese, boiled eggs, cooked poultry, and cooked vegetables. Avoid foods that are high in fat, sodium, sugar, artificial colorings and flavorings, as well as processed grains.
Before getting a Dachshund, there are a few essentials that you should consider purchasing to keep your pup happy and healthy. Start off with a comfortable bed and toys that are sized specifically for your Dachshund. You'll also want to have other expenses like food, treats, and a collar with a leash accounted for as well. A crate is also an important purchase to help with housetraining. You'll want to look into health supplies like flea and tick treatments, heartworm preventatives, and routine vaccinations as well.
Dachshund puppies come in a variety of sizes, ranging from Miniature (under 11 pounds) to Standard (over 16 pounds). The average size of a Dachshund puppy is between 11-16 pounds, although this may vary depending on the parents' genes. You can roughly estimate the size of your Dachshund puppy by looking at their parents, as their growth can be similar.
Dachshunds need a significant amount of exercise and mental stimulation to stay healthy and happy. They should be taken on a daily walk and kept active with consistent play sessions to ensure they remain healthy and active. In addition to leash walks, it's important that your Dachshund have plenty of space to run and play, whether indoors or outdoors. It's recommended that they receive at least 30 minutes of exercise every day, but overall, the more active your Dachshund, the better.
Yes, Dachshunds are usually good with children when they are raised with them from an early age and provided with proper socialization. They can be very protective of their people which makes them great companions for kids. With the proper training and care, they can be delightful family dogs as they are known for their loving and playful nature. They are also intelligent dogs that can easily learn various commands, such as come, sit, stay, etc. What's great is that Dachshunds don't require a lot of exercise so they are excellent for families that have busy lifestyles.
Training a Dachshund requires patience and consistency with commands. A good place to start is house training your pet as puppies are quick learners. To do this, establish a routine, take them out after meals and nap times and reward them with treats or verbal praise when they go potty. Don't forget to take your pup outside after playing or high-energy activities, too.
