Dachshunds have a short, sturdy coat that may be smooth, wirehaired, or longhaired. The protective outer layer of the coat helps to keep dirt and dirt out and the longhaired variety usually has an undercoat for extra insulation too. The coats of Dachshunds vary greatly in color and can range from single colors such as black, white, red, and brown to brindled or dappled patterns. Additionally, the coats can be marked with patches in colors such as brindle, sable, and a reverse dapple.
Dachshunds need a diet that is tailored to their small stature and specific nutritional needs. The best option is to feed them a dry kibble that is specifically tailored to smaller breeds. Look for kibble that is specifically marketed for dachshunds or for small breeds, and check the guaranteed analysis on the packaging to make sure it meets their nutritional needs. You may also want to consider a wet food, though these should be used as an occasional treat rather than a full meal.
Before getting a Dachshund, you'll need some essentials to ensure you're fully prepared for your newest family member. A secure and comfortable crate for house training and overnight containment is a must. Also, you'll want to pick up a durable and comfortable collar and leash for outdoor walks and a soft-bristled brush or grooming mitt for grooming. And don't forget food and water bowls as well as a cozy bed to give your Dachshund home a comfy place to relax.

They are loyal to their owners and can get along with children and other pets, provided that proper introductions are made. Dachshunds are also relatively easy to train and make excellent watchdogs due to their barking that will alert you to a stranger’s presence.
