Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a short-legged, long-bodied breed of dog that has its origins in Germany. In the United States, Dachshunds are commonly referred to as either "Wiener Dogs" or "Doxies". They have a wide variety of coat colors and patterns that include: solid colors, brindle, and piebald. These dogs are well-known for their friendly yet spirited personality and their eagerness to explore. They tend to get along well with strangers, children, and other pets.
Dachshunds are small dogs that are known for their long, low bodies and short legs. Generally, they require weekly brushing and, because of their dense double-coats, they are considered low to medium shedders. Although they don't shed as much as the average dog, they aren't non-shedding. Breeds that don't shed need to be groomed regularly to reduce the amount of hair drifting around the home. Dachshunds may require fewer groomings than the shedding breeds, but they will not completely dispense with fur.
Dachshunds can be very sensitive to their diet, and therefore, it is important to remember what they should not be eating. Foods such as onions, garlic, sugar, grapes, raisins, macadamia nuts, candy, coffee, chocolate, spoiled or expired food, and alcohol should all be avoided. Some Dachshunds may even have food allergies that should be taken into consideration. Table scraps are also not recommended as a good source of nutrition for Dachshunds and could lead to unhealthy weight gain.
Before introducing your new Dachshund to your home, make sure you have prepared it for their arrival. Make sure you have appropriate items set up, like their own food and water bowls, a bed or cozy place for them to sleep and relax, and plenty of toys for them to enjoy. Additionally, make sure to dog-proof your home, such as securing cords, removing houseplants that might be hazardous, and blocking off any dangerous areas.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally considered to be small dogs. They have a long, low-set body and short legs, usually weighing between 16-32 pounds and standing about 8-9 inches tall at the shoulder. Dachshunds have been a beloved type of pet for centuries and they remain a popular companion among pet owners today. Their long, low stature and friendly, inquisitive personality make them endearing to both children and adults.
Running with your Dachshund is possible but may not be the best choice depending on your dog's age, fitness level, and breed-specific health risks. Your Dachshund is a low-to-the-ground breed, which can make running with them more difficult and/or painful for their bodies. Younger and more fit dogs may be better suited for running but this should still be done gradually and you should consult with your veterinarian before beginning any exercise program.
Dachshunds can be great companions for kids when given the right care, training, and attention. Known for their versatility, playfulness, and people-pleasing nature, these dogs can make great companions for children. Dachshunds are generally good-natured and get along well with other animals and people. They do require some extra care and activity, as they are a breed prone to obesity, joint issues, and other health concerns.
Generally speaking, the amount of minutes you need to train Dachshunds each day depends on the individual dog's age, breed, and training level. Puppies and young dogs may need around 15-20 minutes twice a day to learn the basics of obedience training, while older Dachshunds can require a more intensive 30-45 minutes session each day to help maintain their training. Ultimately, the best thing to do is to start by consulting a certified canine professional, since every dog is different and may require unique individual attention.
