Questions & Answers

They have a long body, short legs, and their sizes range from Miniature, standard and miniature size being the smallest. Their coat color varies from brown, black, and tan to wire and long-haired varieties.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds can be done by regularly grooming and bathing them, avoiding contact with other sources of dander, and vacuuming or steam cleaning the house often. When grooming Dachshunds, try to use hypoallergenic shampoos and wipes and make sure to wipe off any excess dander and hair. Avoid contact with other pets or sources of dander, such as bedding and fabric furniture, as well as keeping the house well-ventilated.
Dachshunds require a balanced diet to help them maintain their energy and health. Therefore, it is important to feed your Dachshund a high-quality pet food that is specifically designed for their breed size and activity level. Food should be age and lifestyle appropriate, which may require transitioning your Dachshund to senior diets as they get older. It is also important to measure food portions so that your dog doesn't become overweight. Supplements such as fish oils, probiotics, and the occasional fresh vegetable also add important vitamins that are not always found in pet foods.
Preparing for a new Dachshund is an exciting and rewarding process. To ensure your pet settles into your home smoothly, it's important to start with the basics of providing them with a secure environment, a nutritious diet, routine exercise and engaging playtime. Consider setting up a designated spot for your pet, with items such as a comfortable bed, food and water bowls, and toys, which will help them feel at home. Visiting your veterinarian for a health check is also a must.
Dachshunds are often referred to as "sausage dogs" or small dogs, so it is understandable why some people might think of them as big dogs. However, Dachshunds are generally considered to be a small breed of dog, with an average adult size of 8-9 inches in height. Generally, a larger breed of dog is considered to be any breed of dog weighing more than 22 pounds. So, while Dachshunds may appear to be bigger than other small breeds, they do not qualify as "big" in the dog breed world.
The amount of exercise you should give your Dachshund every day will depend on its age, size, health and breed specific requirements. A good benchmark to aim for is 20-30 minutes of physical activity per day, split into two or three walks. The walks should be a combination of brisk walking and leisurely sniffing opportunities at their own pace. Try to give your Dachshund some variation in its exercise routine and set a regular schedule that fits your lifestyle.
Dachshunds can certainly be a great companion pet for kids and families. These small, smart dogs can form strong bonds with their owners, and with the right training and socialization, they can be quite friendly towards children. Dachshunds are moderately active, love to play and spend time with their people, and can help teach responsibility to young owners. They tend to be very protective and loyal, which can make them an excellent choice for loving homes.
The length of time needed to train Dachshunds is based on the individual’s learning abilities and level of obedience. Generally, about 10-15 minutes per day is recommended to reinforce training. However, this could vary depending on your pup’s personality and existing training levels. You may want to start with shorter sessions for younger dogs and increase to 15-30 minutes for more advanced or older dogs. It is important to find the right balance and consistency level that works best for both you and your Dachshund.
