Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a breed of hound originating in Germany. Its body is most often long and lean, sometimes referred to as "sausage-shaped", with short legs. This breed of dog is also sometimes called a Doxen, a Teckel, a Wiener Dog, or a Weenie. Due to its short legs, these dogs can excel at burrowing underground. This makes them excellent retrievers of small game, particularly badgers and foxes.
Dachshunds are generally considered to be a breed of dog that is hypoallergenic, meaning they are less likely to cause allergies than other breeds. While all dogs produce allergens, studies have shown that Dachshunds emit smaller amounts of allergens than breeds with long or double coats. Even hypoallergenic breeds of dogs may still produce allergens that can irritate some people with allergies, so it is important to do some research and be aware of the potential to have an allergic reaction.
Dachshunds need high-quality, easily digestible food that is rich in nutrients. A good diet for a Dachshund should include whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats, and plenty of vegetables and fruits. An ideal diet will also include an omega-3 fatty acid supplement to ensure the proper development and maintenance of your Dachshund's coat and skin. Feed adult dogs twice per day and puppies three to four times per day.
Dachshunds have some common needs that owners should be aware of when considering adopting one. They have a tendency to bark and may require special attention and training to help them learn to control it. They also can have a strong prey drive, so they should be kept on a leash whenever taken out in public. In terms of exercise, they certainly need a daily walk for stimulation, but they can become overweight if they are not adequately active and monitored. They also may require frequent grooming due to their double coat.
Dachshunds are typically small to medium-sized dogs. Depending on the breed type, size can range from 8 to 32 pounds, with a shoulder height typically around 5-9 inches. According to the American Kennel Club, the standard size Dachshund is 16-32 pounds and 8-9 inches at the shoulder, while miniatures are usually 11 pounds or less, and no more than 5-6 inches at the shoulder. Teacup varieties can be as light as 4 pounds.
Absolutely! Dachshunds can make great running partners! It is important to keep in mind that due to their short legs, it is important to take it slow with your dachshund and build up your running routine over time as running too quickly could put too much strain on their body. It is also important to watch your dog's body language while running, cutting the activity short if they seem tired or uncomfortable.
Dachshunds generally have an even-tempered and affectionate nature, making them good choices as pets for families with children. However, each dog is different and it's important for parents to teach children to approach and handle dogs with respect. With proper training and socialization, Dachshunds can bond with human companions of all ages. Dachshunds should also be supervised when with children, as they are too small to be handled roughly. Those with a higher prey drive should not be trusted to interact with smaller pets such as cats and rodents.
The amount of time needed to train a Dachshund varies depending on the age of the dog and the goals of the training. Generally speaking, Dachshunds require a minimum of 15 minutes per day dedicated to training; however, this amount of time will not give owners optimal results. While smaller dogs may only need 15 minutes per day, it is recommended that Dachshunds receive at least 45 minutes per day for obedience training and activities.
