Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an incredibly popular breed and there are many fun facts about them. For example, these small, sausage-shaped dogs were originally bred in Germany to hunt badgers. They can also be very fast runners their short legs and long bodies make them surprisingly speedy! Dachshunds come in two sizes standard and mini and a variety of colors and coat types. They have big ears and lots of personality. In addition, Dachshunds are loyal companions and often form strong bonds with their owners.
Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic breeds. This means that people with pet allergies may still experience a reaction when exposed to a Dachshund, depending on their level of sensitivity. While Dachshunds have a short coat, they do shed and the dander from their coat and saliva can trigger an allergic response. A person predisposed to allergies should take extra precautions if considering a Dachshund and spend a significant amount of time with one before fully committing to adoption.
Yes, Dachshunds can have special dietary needs due to their long, slender bodies and their smaller size. A good diet provides proper nutrition and helps keep them healthy. To cater to their dietary needs, they should be fed a highly digestible diet and allowed access to clean water at all times. Also, it is important to select a high-quality diet tailored to meet their nutritional requirements. A diet that is low in fat is also important for Dachshunds, as they don't need an abundance of calories and can be more susceptible to obesity.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund requires commitment to research and patience. It is important to gain an understanding of your pup's breed-specific needs and behaviors so you can properly care for it. For example, a Dachshund is prone to back problems so be mindful when picking it up and carrying it. Additionally, Dachshunds are at risk for obesity so you should have a healthy feeding schedule and exercise regimen in place.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally classified as small dogs, due to their size and weight. Depending on the breed, an adult Dachshund can reach anywhere from 8-9 inches in height and 11-32 pounds in weight, and is typically considered a small to medium breed. However, although they are small, these pups are known for their big personalities and can even keep good pace with larger breeds during walks or hikes.
While swimming is not entirely necessary for a Dachshund, many owners have reported that their Dachshunds usually take to water quite readily. They often enjoy a good dip in a swimming pool, lake, or ocean although water that is too deep or rough will be avoided. That said, it is important to supervise these active and sometimes over-confident canines when they take to water, as they are not particularly strong swimmers and unaware of the dangers of some water poses.
Dachshunds are a great breed for first-time owners as they are typically loyal and eager to please. They are relatively low-maintenance, with minimal grooming requirements and the ability to adapt to different lifestyles. Since they are generally active and have an enthusiastic personality, it's important that they receive daily exercise. They enjoy playing in the yard or going on a walk. Dachshunds can be very energetic, so first-time owners should make sure they have ample space to roam.
Training a Dachshund can be easy or challenging depending on the particular dog's personality and prior experiences. If you establish yourself in a consistent positive role as the pack leader when you first bring your Dachshund home, training will be much easier. Start with simple commands first such as SIT, STAY, COME and LEAVE IT and the reward your pup with treats or praise. Using positive reinforcement and consistency will eventually result in a well-behaved and obedient pooch.
