Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, or "wiener dogs" as they are affectionately known, are renowned for their long body and short legs. They have a stubborn and courageous personality which both makes them delightful pets as well as a challenge to train. Some of the traits to be wary of are barking, destructiveness, and selective hearing when they don't want to do something. They are moderately active indoors and enjoy time outdoors, particularly when they can run and play.
Managing allergies with a Dachshund can become a challenge due to their short coat. The best way to decrease the amount of dander from the dog is to brush them regularly and pay close attention to potential signs of irritation in the eyes, nose, and throat in case an allergy does occur. Additionally, it's important to regularly bathe them in hypoallergenic shampoo and keep their sleeping area clean and free of pet hair. If symptoms still persist, speak to a veterinarian, allergist or an immunologist, as they can provide further guidance on how to manage the allergy.
Yes, Dachshunds have special dietary needs compared to other breeds. They need smaller meals that are high in fat and proteins and low in carbohydrates. It is best to provide them with quality kibble that is rich in animal-sourced protein and includes sources of healthy fats such as chicken fat, salmon oil, or flaxseed oil. Also, Dachshunds should have grains and vegetables included in their meals or through treats. Furthermore, Dachshunds should be monitored for weight as they can easily gain weight.
Preparing for a new Dachshund is an exciting process! To ensure a successful transition into your home, start by doing research on the Dachshund breed. Read books and articles, watch videos, or consult with a vet or certified dog trainer for information about the breed. Additionally, be sure to procure the necessary supplies for your Dachshund such as a bed, food, and appropriate toys. You will also want to plan out an ideal daily routine for your dog and familiarize yourself with training methods to help your puppy adjust to his new home.
The size of a Dachshund puppy can vary depending on the type you have. The standared Dachshund is typically between 8 to 9 inches tall at the shoulder and weighs between 16 and 32 pounds. They are considered a medium-sized breed. Miniature Dachshunds are usually 5 to 7 inches tall and weigh between 8 and 11 pounds. The mini varieties are considered small dogs. Lastly, the toy Dachshund is usually 3 to 4 inches tall and weighs between 4 and 6 pounds.
Dachshunds typically have a love for water and can become very comfortable swimming if properly trained. Many Dachshunds enjoy swimming as an effective form of exercise, since their short legs are not well suited for runs and jogs. If your Dachshunds likes to jump into the water, then you should make sure they are supervised during all swimming activities; and be sure to provide them with a life jacket as a precaution. Providing swimming toys or treats can help increase your pup's enjoyment.
Yes, Dachshunds typically get along very well with children. They have a natural inclination to express their affection to their family members, so there is potential for a strong bond to form between a dachshund and a child. It's important to remember however that any dog should never be left unsupervised with a small child, as even the friendliest of dogs can become uncomfortable if they feel stressed or overwhelmed. With proper training and a calm home environment, Dachshunds can be wonderful companions for kids of all ages.
Dachshunds are known to be outgoing, friendly, and inquisitive dogs, which typically causes people to rate them highly in terms of intelligence. While they may not be at the very top of all breeds when it comes to problem solving skills, Dachshunds are clever and tend to quickly master basic commands, making them an ideal choice for families with children who are looking for a companionable canine. Additionally, these dogs are incredibly vocal and expressive, displaying a variety of behaviors reminiscent of understanding and communication.
