#7 If you’re not careful, your Dachshund can become fat and lazy, putting even more strain on his fragile back. Monitor your dachshund’s food intake and keep him at a healthy weight.
#8 Dachshunds are prone to herniated discs in their backs, which can lead to partial or total paralysis. Don’t make them jump from high places and support their backs when holding them.
#9 Your dachshund will likely only have one caregiver. By nature he can be suspicious of strangers so it is important to socialize him from a young age.
