It is important to give your Dachshund a high-quality kibble that is specifically designed for their size and digestive needs.

You can also supplement their diet with fresh fruits and vegetables for added vitamins and minerals.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund is an important step in ensuring your pup's happiness and safety. First, give your Dachshund a safe space of their own where they can relax without being disturbed, like a crate or quiet area. Next, put up baby gate or other physical barriers to limit access to areas that they may not be able to safely or appropriately explore, such as stairs or balconies.

Many Dachshunds reach full size by 8 months old, meaning they remain small throughout their lifespan, unlike many larger breeds.
