Dachshunds are sociable, clever, and loyal to their owners, however, they can be fiercely independent and powerful, making them intelligent and challenging to train. The breed has a devoted following due to their unique appearance and, as a bonus, their easy maintenance—short coats require only minimal grooming.
Dachshunds have a unique double coat, which varies in length of hair depending on the standard or wire-haired version. Their topcoat is short, smooth, and glossy, while their undercoat is thick, varying from soft and short on smooth-haired Dachshunds to wiry and moderate in length on wire-haired Dachshunds.
Dachshunds are small dogs that require a balanced, nutritious diet. It is best to provide them with high quality, commercial dry dog food specifically formulated for their size. Make sure to look for products that contain real animal proteins and sources of Omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon or fish oil. You can also supplement your Dachshund's diet with wet food, homemade meals, cold-pressed treats, or raw diets.
