Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are very unique dogs! They were originally bred in Germany to hunt small vermin, like badgers, which is why they have a long body and short legs. Dachshunds come in three different coat varieties: short, long, and wire-haired. They also have a variety of colors and can even come in a dapple pattern! Some Dachshunds are even born with a double-coat, which gives them extra fluffiness. Dachshunds vary in size and can range from 11 to 32 pounds.
The Dachshund coat is generally short, sleek, and glossy. It is composed of two coats which protect from the elements-the outer coat is made of stiff and glossy hairs while the softer undercoat is much shorter and provides insulation in colder weather. Depending on the type of Dachshund, the coat will be hairless, long-haired, or wire-haired. Wire-haired and longhaired Dachshunds will need regular brushing and grooming to keep their coats looking healthy and tangle-free.
Yes, Dachshunds can have special dietary needs. Generally speaking, their diets should include lean protein sources (like chicken or fish) as well as carbohydrates, complex carbs, and dietary fat. Additionally, they may require regular supplements of vitamin A, C, and E to ensure they are getting enough essential vitamins and minerals. Dachshunds can also have sensitive digestive systems, so it may be beneficial to feed them smaller meals throughout the day rather than once or twice a day.
Preparing for a new Dachshund is an exciting and important time. Start by making sure you have the necessary items for a happy and healthy pup such as a crate, collar and leash, food and water dishes, toys, grooming tools, waste bags, and a bed. Research the breed in order to understand and anticipate the needs of your specific type of Dachshund and consider where to find a vet and local training and obedience classes. Secure your home and garden by making sure there are no hazardous items for your puppy to chew and that the boundaries are clearly marked.
Size is determined by a number of factors in Dachshund puppies, including what variety it is and how it is cared for when it's young. Generally, most standard size Dachshunds will be between 8 and 11 inches long from the shoulder when fully grown, while a miniature size Dachshund would be approximately 5 to 8 inches long when fully grown. Of course, these guidelines are NOT exact and each puppy is unique. With a quality diet and regular exercise, your puppy can reach its full size potential.
Dachshunds need moderate exercise. A good rule of thumb is 20 to 30 minutes of physical activity every day. It's important to give your Dachshund enough time to stretch their legs and a variety of activities to stimulate their mind and get their heart rate up. This can include taking them on long walks, providing them with regular playtime in the backyard, and even some obedience training. It's important to keep Dachshunds at a healthy weight by providing them with the right amount of exercise and a balanced diet.
Dachshunds can be a great choice for first-time dog owners. They are known to be easy going, loyal, and loving animals, making them quite easy to train and bond with. Despite their small size, they will bark when anyone or anything they consider potentially dangerous is near. That means your new Dachshund can provide some peace of mind that your home is safe. Additionally, they are relatively low maintenance in terms of grooming and exercise needs. They only require a decent walk everyday and occasional trimming of their fur.
Dachshunds are often considered to be quite intelligent. They have been bred for multiple generations to have strong noses and keen senses of smell, with the ability to respond to humans and the environment around them. People who have owned a Dachshund report that they can be trained to perform a wide variety of tasks and tricks, indicating their intelligence. Dachshunds are also careful observers of their surroundings, and their curiosity is often quite remarkable. They can detect changes in their environment quickly and often respond with ease and alertness.
