An Overview of This Breed
The name translates to "badger dog" in German. And while that may be confusing (their appearance couldn't be further from the namesake marsupial, after all). That being said, they have transitioned from their hunting nature over time. Today, they are just our beloved companions with a lovable and adaptable character.

Characteristics of the Dachshund
This breed is a great option if you want a pet but lack the room for a large dog. Their small size gives them plenty of space to run around even in compact apartments.

Size
Dachshunds come in three sizes: standard (largest- 9-12 kgs), miniature, and toy. The latter two (4.5-5 kgs) are smaller and more portable.

Coat
Dachshund fur can be short (smooth and shiny), long (silky locks), or wiry (coarse textured).

Height
Their height is modest, making them easy to handle. Standard Dachshunds typically stand around 8 to 9 inches at the shoulder. The miniature and toy sizes range from 5 to 6 inches.

Appearance
Dachshunds are distinguished by their elongated body, resembling a sausage. This has earned them the playful albeit questionable nickname: wiener dog.

Temperament
Dachshunds are not only loving but also quite playful and patient in temperament. They are an excellent fit for homes with small children. Introduce them to toddlers slowly, under the supervision of young adults and grown-ups.

Intelligence
Very clever, Dachshunds are adept at problem-solving. They do have a stubborn streak, so teach them new tricks with patience and positive reinforcement for the best results.

Grooming Requirement
Dachshunds with short hair do not need much maintenance. But one with long hair will require regular brushing to prevent matting. For the wiry variety, occasional hand stripping will maintain their coat's texture.

Dietary Requirement
A balanced diet is important. Choose high-quality dog food. Requirements will vary according to age and size. Dachshunds are quick to gain weight; schedule feeding time and proportion.

Exercise
Dachshunds are tiny but feisty in nature. Regular playtime and walks will prevent weight gain. Keep them mentally stimulated with interactive toys.

Common Health Concerns
The Dachshund's long spine creates back problems. It is essential to support their back when lifting them. They're prone to obesity, which puts pressure on the spine. This can cause back pain. Routine veterinary check-ups help detect and address potential health risks early.

Optimal Household
Dachshunds adapt well to various living situations- an apartment or a house with a yard. They thrive with loving human companionship. They have a strong prey drive thanks to their hunting history, so introducing them to other pets early and proper socialisation is essential.

Average Lifespan
Dachshunds live for 12-16 years. Provide regular veterinary care and a good diet. Remember, a loving environment goes a long way to increase the quality and quantity of life.
