Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a type of small hound dog classified as part of the Hound Group through the American Kennel Club (AKC). This type of hunting dog, originally bred in Germany, is characterized by its short legs, long body, and pointed muzzle. Dachshunds can come in with a variety of coat colors and styles, such as smooth/short-hair, longhaired, and wirehaired. They often have a lustrous and slim build as well as loving personalities that make them suitable as indoor companions.
It may come as a surprise, but Dachshunds are indeed considered a low-shedding breed. While these tenacious pups have a thick, double-layer coat that can put off an impression of serious shedding, in reality, their fur matting and clumping is actually the result of static cling. With regular brushing and occasional professional grooming appointments, this breed can be kept relatively tidy and tidy-haired, so much so that many Dachshund owners remark on how pleasantly little they shed!
Dachshunds are generally considered to be omnivorous. As with any dog, they should be given a diet of premium quality dry kibble specifically formulated for their age, size, and breed. They generally do very well with a combination or wet and dry food. Many dog owners opt to supplement with natural sources of proteins such as cooked eggs, chicken, and lean meats. Be sure to avoid feeding your Dachshund sweets, as it could lead to medical issues over time. Treats should be occasional, and always appropriate for their nutritional needs.
Dachshunds have some unique requirements that must be taken into consideration when caring for them. They require regular exercise, however they should not be allowed to jump for long periods of time as their backs may become injured. They also need daily grooming sessions. Brushing the coat regularly is required as Dachshunds are prone to matting. Additionally, as they are a heavier breed, they are easily susceptible to weight gain, so they need to be kept on a monitored diet.

With a friendly and outgoing temperament and its attractive body size, they are a popular companion dog.
Dachshunds are known for their enthusiasm and energy. For this reason, they need daily exercise to maintain an active, healthy lifestyle. Depending on the age, health, and genetics of your Dachshund, exercise can vary from little to quite a bit. Generally speaking, 30 minutes of activity a day is recommended for an adult Dachshund, and they should get more exercise than typical breeds of similar size.
Dachshunds are a great choice for first-time owners, with their fun-loving demeanor and small size. With proper training, Dachshunds are loyal and affectionate companions so they can be an ideal fit for any home.
