Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a part of the hound family of dogs and they are classified into two distinct categories which are the standard breeds and the miniature breeds. These miniature breeds were developed in the 19th century in Germany mainly for hunting small animals such as rabbits and foxes. They have short legs and long bodies, making them perfect for digging and going underground to finish the hunt on small animals. Despite their small stature, they are very obedient and eager to please their owners, just like any other hound-family dogs.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds can be done through several steps. First, it is important to groom your Dachshund frequently to reduce the amount of dander and other allergens present in the home. Vacuuming your home often and using an air filter can also be helpful in reducing allergens. Additionally, if possible, keeping your Dachshund out of any rooms that are frequented by those with allergies can help prevent reactions.

It is also important to make sure your pup is up-to-date on all vaccinations and that you check for parasites or other issues.
Absolutely! Dachshunds make excellent pets for first-time owners. They are known to be loyal and loving companions, and aren't overly demanding compared to other breeds. They tend to be alert and intelligent, making them easy to train. They are also relatively small animals, meaning they can fit into a variety of living spaces. Additionally, Dachshunds can easily adapt to different lifestyles, making them a perfect companion for those that don't spend a lot of time at home.

The amount of training minutes per day for a Dachshund will depend on both the age and skill level of the dog. For puppies, 10 minutes per day is a great place to start to ensure they are socialized, are comfortable with being handled, and learn basic obedience skills. For adult dogs with basic obedience training, 15-30 minutes per day should be enough to reinforce the desired behaviors. For more serious training, upwards of 45 minutes can be beneficial depending on the goals of the training plan.
