Dachshunds are Hunting Dogs and as such, typically do best on a high-quality, commercially-prepared dry food. Since they are considered to be a small breed, Dachshunds need nutrient-rich foods with higher levels of fats and proteins. If you choose to provide a wet food, make sure it is a good brand, and that it is age-appropriate for your Dachshund. Additionally, Dachshunds enjoy vegetable treats like boiled carrots or green beans.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund requires understanding your pup's individual needs and behaviors and discovering how to correctly manage them. To start, make sure that your pup is receiving adequate exercise and mental stimulation.

Furthermore, providing ample socialization opportunities is paramount to ensuring that your pup develops healthy relationships with people and other animals alike.

If you want to get an impression of your puppy's size, look at the parents' sizes and note any information the breeder may know about the ancestry of the puppy's parents.
