Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are classified as hound-type dogs which are part of the Scenthound Group. These dogs have strong hunting and tracking instincts and were bred to find game or locate predators by scent. Though their short legs and long, slim bodies were not built for long runs, their determination and good noses make them excellent hunters. Dachshunds are also popular household pets due to their friendly personality, loyalty, and adaptability.
While many so-called "hypoallergenic" breeds exist, Dachshunds unfortunately do not fall into that category. A true hypoallergenic breed has less of the proteins (Fel d 1) in their saliva and dander (skin flakes) that cause allergic reactions. Unfortunately, Dachshunds, like many other dog breeds, do produce allergens. That being said, some people with allergies have been known to tolerate certain Dachshunds in their home with no issuebut this is certainly not guaranteed.
Dachshunds should not be fed foods that contain high levels of fat, such as certain meats and some dairy products, as these can lead to obesity and other diet-related health problems. Some human food items, such as grapes, raisins, and onions, are known to be toxic for these dogs, and should be completely avoided. Furthermore, table scraps should generally be avoided, as they can have other lesser-known components that may be dangerous.
To become the best puppy parent for your Dachshund, you should focus on providing them with plenty of exercise, appropriate nutrition, consistent training, appropriate socialization, and routine vet visits. Exercise is important for all dog breeds and it gives Dachshunds the opportunity to use their energy in a constructive and healthy manner. Make sure that you are feeding your Dachshund a balanced meal that is specifically tailored to their breed and weight.
Dachshunds typically grow to be between 8 and 9 inches long when measured from the shoulder to the base of the tail. They also tend to weigh between 16 and 32 pounds when fully grown. Standard Dachshunds tend to be larger than a miniature or toy Dachshund and can have a longer body length due to their longer legs. Miniature Dachshunds usually reach heights of 5 to 6 inches and are usually quite stocky.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds can enjoy swimming although it is not part of their natural instinct. Different dogs may have a different attitude towards swimming, though it could be a nice way for a Dachshund to get some exercise or just relax on a hot day. Dachshunds may need to be encouraged to actually go into the water, so patience and reassurance should be used when first introducing the dog to swimming. It is also important to keep in mind that some may be scared of the water and never take to swimming, so it should be approached with caution.
Yes, Dachshunds typically get along with other pets, such as cats or other small dogs, if they are raised together. It's best to expose them to a variety of animals early on in life to get them accustomed to living with other species. Even if they are not raised together, proper socialization and ongoing obedience training can help them acclimate to new circumstances. Additionally, always supervise the interactions between Dachshunds and other animals and people to ensure their safety.
Dachshunds have a clever and independent nature. Often referred to as "sausage dogs," they're a favorite among many pet owners. Not only are Dachshunds personable and fun loving, but they are also incredibly smart. Dachshunds can be easily trained and can quickly learn signals, tricks, and commands. They are small in size, but big in brains and are capable of outwitting their owners. Dachshunds have a strong desire to please their owners, so are often easily trainable.
