Dachshunds do not shed as much as some other breeds, but they are not non-shedding. Dachshunds have a coat of short and floppy fur, which is actually quite wiry and dense compared to other breeds. This type of fur requires regular combing and brushing to prevent tangling or matting. Dachshunds may also require regular grooming to prevent excessive shedding and help keep their coats looking clean and healthy.

It is important to introduce swimming gradually and in a fun and safe way. That way, Dachshunds can become more comfortable and familiar with the feeling of swimming.
