Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a breed of hound that belongs to the Hound Group within the American Kennel Club (AKC). They are classified as small-sized dogs with a medium-to-long body and a distinctively long, low-slung appearance. Dachshunds have short legs and a long backbone and come in three distinct coat varieties (smooth, wirehaired, and longhaired) that add to their unique look. Many people recognize them by their distinctive long ears, deep chest, and clever, inquisitive expression.
Dachshunds may not necessarily cause you to have allergies as they are not a common allergen. However, it is possible that you may still be allergic to their fur or dander. If you are prone to allergies, it is recommended that you spend some time with a dachshund in a controlled environment before bringing one home. Furthermore, there are some steps you can take to potentially reduce your exposure to possible allergens, like regularly bathing and brushing your dog, as well as cleaning their bedding on a regular basis.
Dachshunds have unique dietary needs and their overall health can be affected by the right or wrong diet. Therefore, it is important to choose an appropriate food. To get the best diet for your Dachshund, it is important to consider their age, any health conditions, and activity level. Generally, you will want to look for a food that is optimized for small breed dogs, as well as one that contains lean proteins, high-quality fats, and essential vitamins and minerals.
Before welcoming your new Dachshund home, it's important to do some basic preparation. First and foremost, make sure you have all the necessary supplies: a bed, food and water dishes, a collar and leash, treats, toys, and cleaning products. The bed should be in a quiet room where your Dachshund can retreat if they need a break from guests. You'll also need to research which type of food and how much to feed them.
It is difficult to accurately determine the permanent size of a Dachshund puppy. Factors including diet, genetics, and level of exercise can all contribute to the future height and weight of your pup. Generally, an adult Dachshund will reach a height between 8 and 9 inches tall and weigh anywhere from 11 to 32 pounds. However, you may see pups at either end of that range. Your Dachshund's size and weight can remain relatively consistent from puppyhood to adulthood or grow significantly over that short period.
Dachshunds need regular exercise to stay healthy and eliminate excess energy. Moderate amounts of activity each day will keep them happy and healthy. Walks, playtime in a fenced-in yard, and chasing balls are good options to provide them with physical activity. However, it's important to make sure not to over-exercise a Dachshund, as their long backs are prone to injury if put through too much strain.
Dachshunds can make wonderful and loyal companions for children. They are known to be a generally gentle breed with tons of personality, incredibly smart, and highly affectionate. Dachshunds can be quite protective of their families, particularly with children. While they are small dogs, they make great playmates and can even help teach kids about the responsibilities of pet ownership. Socialization and positive reinforcement training early on can help your Dachshund get along better with other pets and children.
Training a Dachshund can be an enjoyable and rewarding process when done properly. First, establish yourself as the alpha in the relationship of you and your pet by providing clear and consistent commands. Make sure to keep training sessions short and fun and keep a healthy snack nearby to encourage positive behaviors. When your Dachshund misbehaves, it's important to stay firm and patient as they may take longer to learn than other breeds. Repetition and reward for when a behavior is followed correctly is key to reinforcing the habits you are trying to instill.
