Be warned they can be hard headed and very hard to house break if a puppy and not house trained. Plus make sure they have a good history of no disc issues in their backs. Dachshund are known for invertible disc issues and herniated disc are well known if they are not exercised on a regular basis and kept to a proper weight.

However they are marvelous dogs and so fun (they are bred to hunt and kill Badgers in their dens) so be very cautious with your new dog around the Hamsters even though they are raised about them, instincts are hard to curb in a good Dachshund.
