Consider changing your Dachshund’s bedding to those that are made of wipeable fabrics and launder regularly.
Generally, Dachshunds have the same dietary needs as other breeds of dogs. Since they have short legs and long backs, they need food with glucosamine to help keep their bones and joints healthy. It is important to make sure you only feed your Dachshund high-quality and age-appropriate dog chow, as this will ensure they get all their necessary nutrients. Dachshunds may also need more fat in their diet, so it is important to choose dog food with a higher fat content.
Before you bring your new Dachshund home, it is important to make sure your home is safe and ready for them. Start by checking the floors, furniture, and other places your pup will most likely be. Make sure to remove any small objects that they may be tempted to chew like shoes, plants, or string. You should also childproof any cabinets, curtains, blinds, and electrical outlets. Then create a warm, comfortable environment with items such as food and water bowls, beds, toys, and treats.
Dachshunds, being in the hound group, are generally considered to be medium-sized dogs.

Generally, Dachshunds do get along with other pets if they have been raised with them from a young age and are properly socialized. While it's true that Dachshunds can be territorial and have the tendency to display overprotective behavior, they can still learn to live peacefully with other pets if properly trained and cared for. They just need a lot of patience and consistency while everybody is adjusting to the new situation. With regular contact, activities, and games, all family pets can develop a much closer and meaningful bond with each other.
