Frequently Asked Questions
About
Dachshund
Puppies
What should I know about Dachshunds before buying one?
A Dachshund may be short, but they’re long in body and personality. These dogs are stubborn and can be aggressive, but are extremely loyal, loving, and protective of their families. It takes patience to raise a Dachshund, but there are many rewards. Full-grown, they typically weigh 16-32 pounds and stand 8-9 inches tall.
Are Dachshunds friendly with strangers and kids?
Dachshunds are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. Dachshunds fit best in homes where they can live indoors with their pet parents. Families with smaller children may want to choose a different breed, as Dachshunds can be a little too feisty and aggressive toward kids, especially if they don’t understand how to treat a dog with respect. They're very vocal and bark quite a lot.
How do I keep a Dachshund physically active?
Dachshunds need exercise a few times a day. They’ll enjoy a brisk walk, and their little legs can actually carry them for quite a distance if you’ve got time for a longer stroll. In general, plan on allotting about 30 minutes of exercise per day. Overall, their exercise needs are moderate.
Do Dachshunds shed a lot?
Dachshunds actually come in three different coat types, wire-haired, long-haired, and smooth. For smooth-haired and long-haired Dachshunds, a weekly brushing will help clean their hair and cut back on shedding. For wire-haired Dachshunds, you’ll need to pluck or strip their hair about twice a year and trim their excess hair around their eyebrows and paws. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.
Do Dachshunds need a house with a yard?
Dachshunds are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. Dachshunds fit best in homes where they can live indoors with their pet parents. They will act out and dig even more if left to their own devices full-time in your backyard. They are moderately trainable with consistent effort.
Frequently Asked Questions
About
Miniature Dachshund
Puppies
Is a Miniature Dachshund the right dog for me?
The Dachshund (pronounced dak-sund; also known as a ‘Teckel’) originated in Germany in the sixteenth century. They were bred and trained to chase down prey, such as a badger (Dachshund means ‘Badger Dog’) or fox, enter its burrow, kill it, and retrieve it. Full-grown, they typically weigh 9-11 pounds and stand 5-6 inches tall.
How do Miniature Dachshunds behave around young children?
Miniature Dachshunds are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. The Miniature Dachshund is somewhat reserved around strangers and may bark at them, but forms a strong bond with family. It can be too courageous around larger dogs. They're very vocal and bark quite a lot.
What activities do Miniature Dachshunds enjoy most?
The Miniature Dachshund needs a small amount of exercise; medium length walks or a fair amount of play in the yard should be sufficient. Miniature Dachshunds may tire easily so exercise should be spaced out throughout the day. Miniature Dachshunds can live comfortably in an apartment, but it is best if they get an occasional view of the wild. Overall, their exercise needs are moderate.
What should I expect with Miniature Dachshund shedding?
The smooth- and long-haired Miniature Dachshund should be brushed occasionally to remove dead hairs. Long-haired Miniature Dachshunds are prone to tangles, so they should be groomed more often. The coat of the wire-haired Miniature Dachshund should be plucked twice a year. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.
Can a Miniature Dachshund live in an apartment?
Miniature Dachshunds are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. They are moderately trainable with consistent effort.
How long do Dachshunds usually live?
Miniature Dachshunds usually live 12 to 16 years, about the same as Standard Dachshunds, and many stay lively well into their teens. Keeping them at a healthy weight and limiting jumping from furniture helps protect their long backs as they age. Regular checkups with your vet help catch problems early.
Are Dachshunds hard to train?
Miniature Dachshunds are smart but independent and stubborn, a legacy of being bred to work underground on their own, so training takes patience and consistency. Short, reward-based sessions work best, and housetraining often takes longer than with many other breeds. Early socialization also helps curb their tendency to bark at strangers.
Are mini Dachshunds smart?
Yes, Miniature Dachshunds are intelligent dogs. They were bred to track and hunt badgers and other burrowing animals on their own, which made them clever problem-solvers and independent thinkers. That independence can come across as stubbornness, so they respond best to patient training and plenty of mental stimulation.
Are Dachshunds lap dogs?
Miniature Dachshunds are affectionate with their families, and many love curling up on a lap or burrowing under blankets. They were bred as hunting dogs rather than lap dogs, though, so they still need daily walks and playtime to stay fit and content.
What is the smallest Dachshund breed?
The Miniature is the smallest Dachshund size. Miniature Dachshunds weigh 11 pounds or less as adults, typically 9-11 pounds, and stand 5-6 inches tall, while Standard Dachshunds typically weigh 16-32 pounds and stand 8-9 inches tall. Dogs that fall between the two sizes are informally called tweenies, and toy or teacup Dachshunds are not a recognized size.
Do Dachshunds have long tails?
Yes, Dachshunds have a fairly long tail for their size that continues the line of their long back. It is normally carried level with the back or slightly above it, and it is not docked. Miniature Dachshunds have the same proportions as Standard Dachshunds, just on a smaller frame.
