Doxie-Pin Activity Requirements
Dachshunds were bred to be hunting dogs, and they have retained that instinct. They are curious and stubborn, and they need a fenced yard to prevent them from wandering off. A daily walk or jog is a great way to get your dog the exercise that they need. These short little legs were made for running, so they will be thrilled to be taken out for a sprint. If your dachshund doesn’t have access to a safe, fenced-in area, they may need to be walked on a leash at all times. They are great watch dogs and they enjoy exploring their surroundings, but they can be prone to wandering off if something catches their attention.
