Questions & Answers
Dachshunds belong to the Hound Group according to the American Kennel Club. Specifically, this breed is categorized as a subterranean hound, or Scenthound, which means they have an especially strong sense of smell. This type of dog is known for their long, slender build and short legs; they are often affectionately referred to as wiener dogs or "hot dogs". Dachshunds are wonderfully loyal companions and are even renown for their courage and tenacity.
The Dachshund's coat can range from smooth to wiry but its common trait is its short length. Most Dachshunds have short, thick, wire fur coats and are considered "double-coated" because they have an undercoat which is a softer, shorter layer of fur, and a top layer of longer fur. Dachshunds can come in a wide variety of colors and patterns including solids, dapples, sables, brindles, and piebald. The fur is usually either reddish brown or dark brown with lighter markings.
Yes, Dachshunds have special dietary needs due to their longer body and shorter legs. As a result, the breed is generally prone to being overweight, so owners must be mindful of portion size if food is being given from a bowl or bag. It is important to make sure that Dachshunds are being fed a diet comprised of high-quality ingredients that include a balance of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and vitamins and minerals. Dachshunds should also have regular exercise to support their dietary needs and help keep their weight in check.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund requires commitment and dedication. Start by researching your pup's breed and personality so you can identify their needs and provide them with the appropriate food, exercise, and play opportunities. It's also important to understand the behaviors that may indicate that they're feeling unwell, anxious, or scared so that you can comfort them when needed. Additionally, providing opportunities for positive reinforcement and handling them regularly is necessary to a healthy and happy relationship with your pup.
Dachshunds, also known as "weiner dogs" or "sausage dogs," are small dogs in comparison to other breeds, but they may still appear big to some people. They typically range from 11 to 32 lbs, which is considered small to medium-sized. However, their longer bodies give them the appearance of being larger than they actually are. In terms of personality, they have the heart of a larger dog with an independent, energetic, and feisty attitude to match.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running with you, however, this should be done with care since Dachshunds are not as strong as some other breeds that are better suited for longer, more intense runs. Aside from potential injury, your Dachshund should be at least 8 months old and shouldn't run for more than 15-20 minutes at a time as this will help to minimize any potential stress on their joints. It is advised that you begin with shorter runs as your pup grows and gets stronger.
Dachshunds are generally known for being loyal, understanding and intelligent dogs, and they can be very good around kids and families. They tend to be relatively low-maintenance when it comes to exercise, yet their small size and hardy personalities make them adaptable to whatever your family lifestyle may be. Dachshunds are also reward-driven, so they respond positively to positive reinforcement. This can make them very patient and loving around children, provided they are introduced correctly and taught appropriate boundaries.
It depends on the individual Dachshund, as some may require more or less time than others. Generally, 10-30 minutes of daily dog training exercises with your Dachshund is recommended. This is because these sessions should involve positive reinforcement and engagement of your Dachshund to ensure the best possible results. It's important to always look for signs of stress in your pet during training, so be prepared to shorten the session if your Dachshund becomes overwhelmed. Additionally, breaks should be included every 5-10 minutes to avoid overworking or overtiring them.
