Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a class of dog classified as a hound breed. They are long and low to the ground, with a distinctive curved shape and a strong personality. The name 'Dachshund' is derived from the German words for 'badger dog' due to their original purpose of hunting badgers and other animals in their native Germany. Dachshunds come in three sizes: standard, miniature, and rabbit. They have long, muscular bodies with short legs and a long neck.
Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. While they are known to be a low-shedding breed, they are not considered to be ideal for individuals with allergies. They are prone to drooling and do tend to shed more than some other breeds, so if you have allergies it is important to be aware of this. The best way to determine whether you are comfortable around a Dachshund is to spend some time with the breed to see how your allergies react. Additionally, brushing and bathing regularly can help reduce the amount of allergens in the air.
Dachshunds are considered sensitive to some types of food, because of their sensitive stomachs. Therefore, it is best to opt for a dog food specifically designed for Dachshunds. Such food will contain easy to digest kibble with higher fat content and low carbohydrates. The ingredients should be natural, with no chemicals, preservatives or additives. A good quality, grain-free food that offers a balance of protein, vegetables, fruits, and essential vitamins and minerals is ideal.
Before welcoming your new Dachshund into your home, it's important to properly prepare. You'll need to create a safe and secure environment in order to ensure that your pup never experiences any harm. Begin by puppy proofing your home secure any cords or fragile items and make sure any small items are out of reach. Also, consider purchasing a bed or crate for your pup to sleep in and a few toys for them to play with. Additionally, make sure that your pup is provided with a regular potty area and that the area is kept clean.
Dachshunds come in two sizes: standard and miniature. Standard dachshunds typically reach 16-32 pounds when fully grown, while miniature dachshunds are much smaller, usually weighing less than 11 pounds. The exact size of a given dachshund can depend on the breed of the dog, but both standard and miniature dachshunds will usually stay within these size ranges. While small in stature, they are big on personality and are always eager to explore and play with their human counterparts.
Dachshunds can enjoy taking a dip in the water, but they are not known to be strong swimmers. They often feel quite uncomfortable in the water due to their top-heavy build and short legs. They typically don't like getting wet and may need some time and patience to become comfortable with it, although some may even take to it naturally. It's important to introduce them to water gradually, preferably starting with a shallow pool or pond, and to never throw a Dachshund in the water expecting them to enjoy it.
Dachshunds are naturally friendly and can make wonderful family pets that can be great with kids. They have a playful nature and charming personality, so they fit in well with day-to-day life. With their unconditional love and loyalty, Dachshunds are the perfect companion for you and your children.

They are known for their independent, strong-willed personalities. Patience, dedication, and consistency are key to success when it comes to training a Dachshund. It is important to keep training sessions short and positive; provide plenty of treats and praise so the pup stays engaged and motivated. You'll need to remain firm and consistent in your training, without being too harsh.
