Dachshunds

Most breeds, including Dachshunds, have a season (or heat) every six months which lasts for 10-14 days.

Yes. But if there realted there puppys are likely to have health issues so i dont recomend breeding animals that come from the same mother.

yorkies don't weigh that much when grown!however if one did,by dog growth rates,it would weigh about 600 pounds..........

They should only way up to 12 pounds. They can't gain that much weight. 12 pounds is even on the fat scale. Make sure your yorkie stays nice and healthy to maintain full body growth.

A male can breed all his life and a female can if she till has cycles but I don't suggest it.

Puppies typically do not experience a heat cycle until they are older, usually around six months of age. When a female dog goes into heat, she may bleed for about 7 to 10 days. The bleeding can vary in intensity and duration depending on the individual dog. After the heat cycle, the bleeding should stop, and she will not bleed again until her next heat cycle, which occurs approximately every six months.

Count the dog's nipples, and subtract 1. This is the rule of thumb for all mammals.

Actually my dachshund just had puppies and she had eight nipples and had eight puppies, so I don't think that is always the rule of thumb.

mine cost about $700 but some can cost 100 to 1,000

Yes I have a mini shnauzer named Tank who shakes when he sleeps due to nightmares.

If you are unsure about grooming then perhaps you should pay for a visit to the groomers and they will show you how to do it in future. Otherwise, carefully clip between the toes and check the ears for mites or any debree. Then you may wish to trim the belly and tail hair so that it does not drag along the floor.

Mini Dachsund dogs are potty trained just like the usual potty training on other dogs. You should never yell at them when training. Use a stern, low-pitched "no" or "bad puppy" to communicate displeasure. Screaming or yelling can cause pressure or stress on your puppy.

There is only one breed of german shepard. Although two german spepards may look different that is because all breeds vary from pure to mutt this means, you could have two german spepards and coinsedentally they will not look the same you have a trillionth of a chance for thwmto look the same

A doberman is a dog and dogs belong to the phylum Chordata, or animals with spinal cords.

yes like any other dog . but as they have short fur they don't moult allot but the fur does tend to stick to your clothing and furniture

Dachshunds were bred from many acient breeds, some of which have died out. They are part terrier from what is known. Who knows what else?

their short legs come from breeding shorter and shorter dogs until they came to their current dwarf size

Usually smaller dogs live to be at least 13 to 16 years old.

A mini will weigh about 7-8 oz :)

yes, puppies can, and will, usually when they are around a year of age. Puppies will chew on things to loose their teeth, and it is important for the development of their gums. Keep wires and valuables out of reach, and provide SAFE chew toys. Most importantly, never scold a puppy when they have chewed something up, unless it's caught in the act... they will not remember what they did wrong. If a puppy is chewing on the chew toys you provided, as opposed to the furniture, praise them. :)

from what i have heard when we used to breed them, was that they were bred to hunt badgers and other smaller ground dwelling mammals. their short stature was perfect for going into holes and dragging out the animal they were after. As to why they were bred to be long bodied, i haven't figured that one out yet, but am really interested in learning.

Dachshunds were bred for hunting badgers. Long-legged dogs won't fit in the badger holes. The short-leggedness is a form of dwarfism.

Any dog breed should be capitalized.

The English language is the result of the merging of the Germanic Anglo-Saxon language (also called Old English) with the Norman French language, a romance language, in the centuries following the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 AD.

Nothing in particular since dachshunds are quite irritable and can become jealous with other pets so you need to be watchful when this breed is with another dog breed, especially smaller breeds.

You retire a Female Yorkie from breeding at the age of 5.

ONE of the most stubborn dog breeds are the dachshunds.

The ASPCA websiter says to feed puppies 8 to 12 weeks old need four meals a day. But with our goldendoodle we feed her 3 times a day about 1/4 of a cup. If you have any further questions you should ask your vet, breeder or shelter(where you got you pup from) they will know what is right for you puppy. Have fun!
