Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a part of the hound family and are classified as a short-legged, long-bodied, hunting dog. They have been used since ancient times for hunting small game, such as rabbits, and specialize in finding and trailing wildlife. Dachshunds are a lively breed full of energy and often make great family pets, due to their playful and loving nature. They thrive on companionship and attention. They come in different sizes and colors, including the standard, miniature, and even a mixture of the two.
Unlike some other breeds of dogs, most dachshunds are non-shedding so they can be a great fit for households with allergies. While there is no guarantee of zero allergens in your home, individual reaction to allergens can vary. Many people find that keeping the coat and skin healthy and clean, along with regular vacuuming, can help to reduce pet allergens in the home.
Yes, Dachshunds have special dietary needs. Because they are small, they don't often require the same amount of food as larger breeds. This means that it is important to look into what kind of food is best for your pet's size. These dogs thrive on a diet that is low in fat and high in protein. It's important to keep their caloric intake in check and feed them nutritious food that is specifically designed for Dachshunds. Additionally, their short legs and spine make it easier for them to become overweight, so portion control is important.
Preparing for your new Dachshund can be a fun and rewarding experience, as long as you plan ahead. Start by doing some research and learning about the breed, so that you understand your pup’s unique needs. Create a secured area in your home, both for potty training and to provide your new puppy with her own space. Make sure to buy all the necessary supplies and set up a good feeding schedule. Create an exercise plan for walks and other activities that will stimulate your pup. Ensure that they receive all the necessary vaccinations and start scheduling regular vet visits.
Generally, Dachshunds are considered to be a small breed of dog and don't grow more than 16-32 lbs. depending on the type of Dachshund. A standard Dachshund is typically 16-32 lbs., while a miniature Dachshund is 11 lbs. or less. When full-grown, these dogs can range from 8-9 inches in height. However, the length of the Dachshund's body is usually double the size of its height.
Dachshunds need at least 30 minutes of exercise per day; about the same as any other small to medium-sized breed. These clever and active canines thrive with plenty of physical and mental stimulation, so aim for twice a day of activities like walking or running. Regularly engaging your Dachshund in these activities helps to channel their energy in positive directions, in turn discouraging bad behaviors that could arise from boredom.
