Dachshunds have been around for a few centuries, and have been a very popular breed of dog for a while now. Their nickname “sausage dog” suits them with their short, yet elongated bodies. They’re cute as buttons, and make great family pets!
Loyal and Independent
Although Dachshunds like to get very close with their human families, they’re also independent and don’t need attention all the time.
Absolutely Adorable
Due to their sausage-like appearance, Dachshunds are really cute, and there are so many Instagram pages dedicated to them!
Fantastically Friendly
Dachshunds really love people, and they’re good with other pets too, they may just get jealous for affection at times.
Endless Variety
Dachshunds are small and friendly, and they’re actually very intelligent too! They’re easily trainable too - just do it when they’re as young as possible!
Incredibly Intelligent
Dachshunds are great with children and babies, but like all dogs, you should never leave them alone with a baby or a small child.
Fun for the Whole Family
Dachshunds come with three different coat types, a multitude of coat colors and many sizes, so there are many options available for you!

Questions & Answers
Dachshund puppies learn new skills much more quickly than other breeds of dogs. It usually takes 3 to 4 months for a Dachshund puppy to grasp any new skill. Unlike larger dog breeds, there is no specified time frame for how long it will take your pup to learn a new command.
When it comes to the procedure of breeding their dogs and who they choose to house their pups with, Round Rock TX breeders adhere to the same high standards. Just as you want to ensure that you're obtaining your puppy from a reputable breeder, they want to make sure that their puppies go to good homes. Before you can bring your puppy back to your house.
Your dachshund puppy needs a diet high in protein and moderate to low in fat. That means loading up on lean meats, eggs, fish, shellfish, skinless poultry, and beans while avoiding butter, other animal fats, and trans-fats. Limit fruits because they're high in sugar as well as vegetables that are too starchy or sweet such as beets, carrots, or squash -- those foods cause weight gain.
Dachshunds require a moderate amount of exercise, although the type and frequency vary depending on their age and size. Most dog guardians feel that a short daily walk is enough to satisfy the needs of an adult Dachshund. Some people take it a step farther by adding in playtime with other dogs or throwing balls in the backyard, or going on a hike or to a dog park. But intense or strenuous exercise should be avoided to prevent joint damage.
The prices for puppies are typically more expensive than they are for adult dogs. If you're looking to purchase a Dachshund dog, it may or may not have had this procedure done. The AKC suggests not spaying or neutering a puppy until they are 6 months old. Our Dachshund puppies rarely last until that age at our breeders in Spring TX because they are so desirable.
Variations: some dachshunds tend to bark more than others, and as such, some people may view them as good guard dogs. However if you've ever heard a Dachshund with a low-pitched voice, then it's easy to understand why nobody would dare come near their property line. Those who have bred these beauties know that they need a ton of exercise and get bored easily which means that they can also be destructive albeit in a cute way.
Yes, if you get put in contact with one of the breeders that do not currently have any puppies ready for adoption in Spring TX, we will connect you with another breeder, as close to you as possible, that will have puppies available. This will not be difficult for us as we have an expansive network.
The average size of a Dachshund is 10 to 13 inches. The height is measured at the top of the shoulders. The weight varies depending on gender and should be within 12 pounds for females and 16 pounds for males. The Dachshund originated in Germany during the 18th century, where it was used to hunt badgers or wild boar.
No, Dachshunds are not mixed breed dogs. A Dachshund is a purebred dog with German origins coming from the working breeds of the United States brought over by Germans who immigrated to America centuries ago.
