Dachshund
The Dachshund is small, bold and surprisingly determined. In Indian homes it needs weight control and protection from frequent stair climbing to reduce back strain.

History & Origin of the Dachshund
Dachshunds were developed in Germany to hunt badgers and other burrow-dwelling animals. Their long body, strong front and loud voice suited underground work. Different coat types and sizes later appeared for varied terrain and quarry.
Dachshund Price in India
In India, Dachshund prices vary with breeder reputation, city, age, colour demand, health testing and whether KCI papers are provided. Very low prices can mean poor breeding, weak vaccination records or uncertain parentage.
Caring for a Dachshund in India
Dachshund does well with steady walks, play and sensible weight control. A weekly brush, nail trim and basic skin check are usually enough. Use measured meals and avoid frequent table scraps, because small dogs gain weight quickly. In most Indian cities, provide shade, fresh water and avoid strenuous activity during hot afternoons.
