Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a type of hound dog and belong to a breed classification known as scent hounds. They are a medium-sized breed with short legs, long bodies, and broad, long faces. Dachshunds usually come in two varieties, long-haired and smooth-haired, and three sizes standard, miniature, and miniature-toy size. They are loyal, hardy, and social dogs that are intelligent and lively, making them excellent companions.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds is possible, but it takes consistency and dedication. First, make sure to keep your dachshund's living area clean and free of dust, pollen, and other potential triggers of allergies. Vacuuming regularly and using an air purifier can help. And if your dachshund spends time outside, make sure to brush them out after they come back inside. Routine bathing can also help keep their fur clean and free of allergens. It's also important to be aware of season-specific allergies and to take preventative measures when possible.
When it comes to feeding your Dachshund, it is important to ensure that they are receiving a well-balanced diet that meets their nutritional needs. There are a variety of commercial dog foods on the market that are specifically created for Dachshunds, which are made to provide them with all of the vitamins and minerals they require and that are tailored to common Dachshund health issues such as obesity.
Before you get a Dachshund, make sure you have all the essentials to keep your pet healthy and happy. This includes a sturdy collar and leash, high-quality food and treats, as well as a comfortable crate or bed. You'll also want to stock up on toys to help with mental stimulation and prevent boredom. Don't forget to buy a brush and dental chews to help keep their coat and teeth in top condition. Additionally, you'll need to include basics such as poo bags, waste bin liners, a poop scoop, and waste bags if appropriate.
Dachshunds come in two sizes: standard and miniature. Standard size Dachshunds typically range from 16-32lbs and 8-9 inches in height, whereas, miniature Dachshunds range from 11lbs or less and usually stand 5-6 inches tall. In addition to size differences, there are also different coat types that you can select from including long-haired, wire-haired and smooth-haired. Though, the size difference is the most noticeable, since miniature Dachshunds look strikingly different from the standard size ones.
Dachshunds are known for their active and lively personalities. These small but feisty dogs love to explore the outdoors and take long, leisurely walks, making them perfect for active people. Their curious nature may lead them to try new things, making them great companions on hikes or outdoor bike rides. While they may enjoy the occasional bark, they generally don't require too much exercise in comparison to other breeds. That being said, Dachshunds are still prone to bouts of hyperactivity and need regular exercise to prevent obesity and other health issues.
Dachshunds can be great furry companions for households with kids. With the right obedience training, socializing and proper introduction to the family, a dachshund can be a gentle, loyal and loving pet for any age, including younger children. However, it's important to teach kids to always be respectful to the dog and never to impose on it. It's essential to ensure that the dachshund is given attention, exercise, playtime and space to relax.
The amount of minutes that is recommended to allocate to training your Dachshund each day varies depending on your goals and your dog’s needs. As a general rule of thumb, it is best to provide several short training sessions throughout the day. Short sessions of five to ten minutes will help keep your dog’s attention and ensure that each session is successful. If your Dachshund is young, a basic puppy training class may be a good idea and should take no more than an hour to complete each week.
