Dachshunds can be considered low-shedding dogs, although they are not non-shedding. While these little dogs may not leave tufts of fur behind while shedding, they still require regular grooming to limit the amount of hair loss. If you want to reduce shedding, it's a good idea to brush your Dachshund weekly and ensure they have a healthy and well-balanced diet. To help keep their fur in tip-top shape, monthly baths with a shedding shampoo may also help to reduce the amount of hair they'll lose over time.

As with all breeds, it is important to keep track of their calorie intake to ensure that they do not become overweight.
Preparation is key for welcoming a new Dachshund into your home. First, be sure to puppy-proof your home.

Make sure to clean up any toxic chemicals, or plants that might be poisonous. Make sure you have a place for them to sleep and provide a cozy bed. Setting a specific routine and house-training your pup will also be helpful.
