Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, sometimes referred to as “wiener dogs”, are known for their cheerful personalities, short stature, and characteristic low-slung bodies. Some fun facts about this breed include that Dachshunds originally bred to hunt badgers, and can even hunt an animal three times their size and weight! They also have a very keen sense of smell, which makes them excellent watchdogs and great at finding things like truffles.
A Dachshund's coat is unique and varied. It can range from a long, smooth coat to a wirehaired coat or a longhaired coat, depending on the breed. Generally, the long-haired coats are thicker and may require daily brushing to prevent mats and tangles. The wirehaired coats are more coarse, while the smooth-coated Dachshunds are short and slick. All Dachshunds have an undercoat which helps them stay warm and insulated, regardless of which type of coat.
Dachshunds should not be fed chocolate, peanut butter, grapes, raisins, onions, garlic, and other fatty foods as these can create digestive issues and other health problems. Additionally, diets that are too high in fat can cause extreme discomfort to your Dachshund and lead to pancreatitis. Avoid feeding your Dachshund foods that have gone bad or are moldy, as the toxins in these can cause serious health issues. You should also keep in mind that table scraps are another food to avoid and try to stick to a balanced diet of quality commercial dog food.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund requires both consistency and patience. To start, be sure to socialize them from a young age and expose them to different environments and scenarios, such as being around other people and animals. Consistency is key when it comes to house training and reinforcing habits. As they age, make sure you keep them mentally and physically stimulated with regular exercise and activities like tug of war, fetch, and hide and seek. In addition, provide a safe and comfortable home with plenty of space to roam and room to explore.
Dachshunds come in two sizes standard and miniature. The standard size is around 15-20 pounds and the miniature size is 11 pounds or smaller. Their legs are short whether they're the standard or miniature size. Other than the size of their body, they tend to look quite similar, with a long body, short legs and a sleek coat. Interestingly, the teacup Dachshund is a nickname for a miniature Dachshund that weighs 7 pounds or less.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running but it is important to remember to keep their safety and well-being in mind. Dachshunds are a toy breed of small dogs that are not built like strong running machines with short legs and a long body, so they should not be running long distances. Also, their bodies are more sensitive to heat, so be sure to exercise them in cooler weather in the early morning or later evening. Ensure your Dachshund has been cleared for running by your vet, so that no pre-existing condition may be aggravated.
Dachshunds, also known as sausage dogs, can make wonderful companions for children. They are usually affectionate, loyal, and playful ideal traits for a family pet. Although they can be gentle and patient with kids, they do require routine socialization and obedience training to ensure they are well-behaved around other people. Dachshunds can also be quite independent and stubborn, so it’s important to establish a good working relationship with your pet from the start.
Dachshunds are considered extremely intelligent and capable dogs. They have been bred to be skilled hunters and are particularly well-versed in independent problem-solving. In addition, they respond well to training and are eager to please their owners. Dachshunds possess a high level of understanding, enabling them to observe their environment with a degree of increased intelligence. They also remember commands and tasks easily, allowing them to excel in obedience training.
