Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, sometimes called “wiener dogs”, are an ancient breed and have been around since the 15th century. Dachshunds were bred to be hunters, originally used to hunt badgers, and their short legs kept them from going underground. Fun fact—they have an impressive sense of smell, up to 100 times better than a human’s! They have colorful personalities, and can be quite complex when it comes to their emotions and behavior. They’re full of energy, fiercely loyal, and incredibly playful.
Dachshunds may cause you to have allergies, however this depends on the individual. As with any pet, some people can be more sensitive to allergens than others. An allergy can be triggered by the pet's saliva, body oils, urine, or dander. In other words, people who are sensitive to all of these things may experience allergy-like symptoms when they come in contact with a Dachshund. If the person has a history of allergies or asthma, they should be cautious when they consider getting a Dachshund as a pet.
Yes, Dachshunds do have special dietary needs that should be taken into consideration when feeding them. They are small, active dogs and require a diet that is high in proteins and fat to support their energy level. Additionally, Dachshunds are prone to obesity, so it is important to be mindful of portions and the right blend of nutrients. Feeding your Dachshund fresh, high-quality ingredients will not only help them maintain a healthier weight but should provide them with sufficient nourishment for optimal growth and development.
Preparing for a new Dachshund can feel overwhelming, but there are a few important steps you should take beforehand. First, ensure that your home is Dachshund-proof: they're notorious chewers, so make sure to secure any wires, plants, and breakables. Also, purchase the necessary supplies like a crate, bowls, collar, and tag. And, it's important to do your research so you can pick the food and treats that will benefit your pup the most.
Dachshunds come in two sizes Standard and Miniature. Standard size can measure a height from 8 to 11 inches at the shoulder, while Miniature size is usually between 5 and 7 inches. While the size of a Dachshund can vary, the general size differentiation between Standard and Miniature will normally be easy to spot. Standard Dachshunds will typically weigh about 16 to 32 pounds while Miniature Dachshunds will typically weigh 11 pounds or less.
While it is true that many breeds of dogs genuinely enjoy water or swimming, Dachshunds tend to be less fond of this activity. However, given the right environment such as a warm pool or lake, as well as proper swimming wear and supervision many Dachshunds will happily acclimate to and even enjoy swimming. Additionally, swimming can be beneficial to this type of breed due to its low-impact nature, making it easier on their back and skeletal structures than regular activities such as running and playing.
Dachshunds can be great additions to a first-time owner's family, as they tend to be friendly and energetic. They need regular exercise to stay healthy, but their short legs make it easier to accommodate them as they don't need much space to get their daily exercise. They don't require too much grooming, making upkeep manageable. Dachshunds form strong bonds quickly, so they make great companions for their families.
Dachshunds are an intelligent breed of dog that are usually extremely loyal, easily trained and fiercely independent.
