Diet and Nutrition
A well-balanced diet is essential to keep your Dachshund healthy, energetic, and lean. Because of their long backs, maintaining a proper weight is important to avoid strain on their spine.
Recommended Nutrition:
High-quality small-breed dog food rich in lean protein
Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids to promote coat and joint health
Whole grains or vegetables for energy and digestion
Avoid excessive treats or human food to prevent obesity
Feed two small meals per day and ensure constant access to fresh water. In Dubai’s warm climate, hydration and portion control are key to keeping your Dachshund active and healthy.
Grooming and Care
Dachshunds are relatively low-maintenance dogs, though grooming needs vary slightly depending on coat type. The smooth coat requires minimal brushing, while long-haired Dachshunds benefit from weekly brushing to prevent tangles.
Care Tips:
Brush 1 2 times a week (more for long-haired Dachshunds)
Clean ears regularly to avoid infections
Trim nails every few weeks
Brush teeth frequently to maintain dental health
Bathe occasionally using mild dog shampoo
Regular exercise, such as short walks or indoor play, helps maintain muscle tone and prevent weight gain. However, it’s best to avoid excessive jumping or climbing stairs to protect their long backs.
Perfect for Dubai Lifestyle
Dachshunds are a great match for Dubai’s pet-loving communities. Their adaptable nature allows them to live happily in apartments or villas, and they enjoy both indoor comfort and outdoor play.
Whether strolling through Arjan parks, enjoying Dubai’s pet-friendly cafés, or relaxing at home, your Dachshund will be a constant source of joy and companionship. Their small size makes them perfect for city living, and their warm temperament fits well into family-oriented lifestyles.

Dachshunds are intelligent and curious, which makes training both enjoyable and rewarding. They respond best to positive reinforcement, gentle consistency, and early socialization.
Start with basic commands such as “sit,” “stay,” and “come,” and use praise or small treats as motivation. Regular interaction with people and other pets ensures they grow into well-behaved and confident adults.
Potty training may require patience, but with routine and encouragement, Dachshunds quickly adapt to household schedules.
