Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a small, long and low-to-the-ground dog breed originating from Germany. The breed’s distinct shape is characterized by short legs and a long body given it its nickname “Weiner dog” or “Dox-Hound”. These playful and curious dogs can make wonderful pets but they have strong personalities and require assertive training. They are loyal, brave and can be quite stubborn which makes them highly intelligent and if given adequate attention and proper training can make excellent family pets.
Dachshunds generally have short, smooth coats that are dense and shiny. The coats can come in a variety of colors, such as black, white, brown, red, cream, and even dappled. They also feature a unique “sausage body”, due to their long backs and short legs. Regular brushing is an essential part of keeping their coats healthy and free of tangles. Dachshund coats are easy to groom and keep clean, and they can withstand cold temperatures, making them great companion dogs for colder climates.
Yes, Dachshunds have some special dietary needs. Since they are small dogs they should not be overfed. It is important to ensure that a Dachshund receives enough fiber, vitamins, and minerals in their meals. Additionally, Dachshunds tend to be more prone to certain ailments and health issues so a diet specifically tailored to their needs can help to guard against them. It's recommended to discuss the best diet plan with a veterinarian, and to select a high quality dry food that is low in fat and carbohydrates.
Before you bring home your new Dachshund, it's important to properly prepare your home. Purchase items such as food and water bowls, bedding, and chew toys that are specifically suited for a Dachshund's size. Keep any food and medications in an area that is inaccessible to your pet. Make sure any furniture, window sills, stairs, and balconies are properly blocked off to prevent falls and other injuries. Inspect the entire house for items that your pet could potentially chew or swallow. Always supervise your new pet while exploring his new home to ensure his safety.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally considered small dogs. The American Kennel Club categorizes Dachshunds in the toy breed group and classifies them as a small dog. Depending on the type of Dachshund, these dogs can weigh anywhere from 11 to 32 pounds and typically have an average height of 8 to 9 inches, making them an ideal choice for families with smaller homes. While they might be small in stature, Dachshunds have the heart of a large dog in terms of their loyalty, playfulness, and overall love of life.
Dachshunds do love to be active and the breed is generally considered to be quite active. The activity level of an individual Dachshund largely depends on his individual personality. However, as his size means that he often tires more quickly than larger breeds, it is important to manage activity levels carefully. Dachshunds are very intelligent and, when properly exercised, they can easily keep up with a larger dog on a walk or hike.
Dachshunds are indeed suitable for family living! These active, loyal dogs are known to adapt to home life very well and love spending time with their owners. Although they are small and low to the ground, they can keep up with a variety of activities and children in the home. They also form strong bonds with all members of the family, and will let their owners know when they require love and attention. With proper training, they can be taught to obey commands and be gentle with children.
Training a Dachshund can be rewarding, but it is something to consider carefully. Dachshunds are loyal and affectionate, and with commitment and patience they can make wonderful companions and fit into a family lifestyle. However, without a dedicated program of positive reinforcement and consistency in training, the breed's stubborn nature can cause frustration and unruliness. Like all dogs, Dachshunds should be taught basic commands like come, sit, stay, and no; and also behaviors such as polite meeting and greeting, as well as how to tolerate a variety of situations.
