Dachshunds are a uniquely lovable and popular breed of dog. They are known for their loyal, energetic and mischievous personalities and their long, slender bodies. Some fun facts about these canine pals include that their name literally translates to "badger dog," they were bred originally as hunting dogs, and they come in three sizes (standard, miniature, and kaninchen) and two fur varieties (smooth and long-haired).

Dachshunds are considered to be hypoallergenic dogs and, as such, should not present a problem for allergy sufferers.

If you are prone to allergies, it would be best to visit a Dachshund and spend some time with them to gauge the severity of any allergy-related symptoms that you may have.
Yes, Dachshunds generally have different dietary needs than other breeds due to their small size/narrow body. As a result, their digestive systems may not interact with certain foods the same way as larger dogs. Additionally, they can easily become overweight, so it's best to feed them an appropriate amount of food based on their size and activity levels. You should also consider their caloric needs and choose a high-quality food that contains minerals and vitamins, as well as other nutrients.
When getting a Dachshund, some essential items you'll need to purchase are a comfortable bed, collar, lead, appropriate food and treats, a bowl for food and water, toys, puppy pads, and a brushing brush.

Dachshunds can absolutely make wonderful companions for families with young children. They have a naturally friendly and loyal temperament and make a loyal and devoted indoor pet.
