Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a short-legged, long-bodied dog breed that originated in Germany hundreds of years ago. They were originally bred to hunt badgers, hence their distinctive body shape. Often mistaken for "sausage dogs" because of their body shape, dachshunds come in three sizes – standard, miniature, and tweenie – and several coat varieties including smooth, wirehaired, and longhaired. In addition to their distinctive appearance, dachshunds are clever, loyal, and extremely affectionate companions.
Dachshunds are generally considered to not be notorious for causing allergies in their owners, but all breeds can potentially cause an allergic reaction. The best way to know for sure is to spend some time around the breed to see if there is any reaction. Additionally, it's important to note that some people may have allergies to dog dander, saliva, or even dogs in general. These allergies are not breed-specific, meaning Dachshunds can just as likely cause allergies as any other breed.
Dachshunds, like many other breeds, should not be fed foods that are high in fat, as this can cause weight gain and possible pancreatitis. Additionally, dachshunds should not be given any type of bones, as these can splinter and cause internal injury. Dairy and sugary products should also be avoided, as these can cause digestive upset and sometimes even diabetes. Food like grapes, onions, garlic, and raisins can be toxic to your dog, so these should never be given as treats or meals.
Preparing your home for a Dachshund can be an exciting and rewarding time. To make the transition as smooth as possible, be sure to puppy-proof your home. You'll want to create a safe environment for your pup to explore and learn. Make sure to move any hazardous items, such as cleaning supplies, out of reach. Place furniture or crates in different areas, as these can be especially useful for a Dachshund. Additionally, be sure to create a space for your pup to relax, such as their own bed or bedding area.
Dachshunds, also known as "wiener dogs” or "sausage dogs," are usually small enough to qualify as a toy or pocket-sized dog breed, but they can come in standard sizes, too. Because of this, it can be hard to give an exact answer as to whether or not Dachshunds are considered big dogs. However, on average, they typically don't reach heights taller than 15 inches and they typically weigh no more than 32 pounds.
Absolutely! Taking your Dachshund running is a great way to provide lots of healthy exercise while bringing fun and excitement to your runs. It is important to consider a few factors, however, when exercising with your pup to ensure the experience is safe and rewarding for both of you. Start with slower runs, where you gradually increase the distance and pace until your pup is able to comfortably and safely manage the full duration. It also helps to monitor the local weather conditions and adjust the activity level accordingly.
Dachshunds generally do well with other animals, given proper introductions and supervision. Although they have a reputation for being independent and stubborn, they can learn to be quite tolerant of other pets if given a chance and appropriate training. It is important to introduce them to other animals in a calm, friendly manner and set limits on their behavior towards other pets. With proper guidance, Dachshunds can learn to be good companions to other pets in the household and enjoy the company.
It depends on the individual dog and the goals you have for them. Generally speaking, Dachshunds need about 20 30 minutes of training each day in order to effectively learn the desired behaviors. This should include physical training, such as playing fetch and teaching them basic commands, as well as mental training, which involves teaching them to follow basic commands. You may need to break up the training into smaller 10-15 minute sessions in order to keep the dog's interest and ensure that it remains consistent.
