Dachshund puppies in Kolkata

A healthy, vaccinated Dachshund puppy costs ₹10,000–₹18,000 in Kolkata as of August 2026. Smooth-coated puppies sit at the lower end; long-haired and dapple-patterned ones run higher. Anything advertised below ₹8,000 usually means no vaccination record or a puppy separated from its mother too early.

Very. They are small, need only moderate exercise, and are content indoors between walks. The practical requirement is not floor space but furniture discipline — a Dachshund that jumps down from a sofa several times a day is putting repeated strain on its back.

Generally yes, with one rule: children must learn to support the whole body when lifting, never just the front. Dachshunds are sturdy in temperament but their spine needs care. They suit families with children old enough to follow that.

Smooth coats need a rubber mitt once a week and a bath every six weeks or so. Long-haired Dachshunds need brushing two or three times a week to stop the feathering matting, particularly through monsoon. Ears want a weekly check either way.

Three small meals a day until four months, then twice daily. Portion control matters more in this breed than almost any other — every extra kilogram loads the spine. Budget ₹1,400–₹2,400 a month for good-quality food once grown.

They are intelligent but genuinely stubborn — the breed was developed to make its own decisions underground. Short, reward-based sessions work far better than repetition. House-training typically takes longer than with a Labrador, so plan for patience rather than speed.

They are alert and vocal, with a bark much deeper than the size suggests. That makes them good little watchdogs and worth thinking about in a housing society with shared walls. Early training reduces nuisance barking considerably.

The standard Indian schedule: DHPPi at six to eight weeks, boosters at ten to twelve and fourteen to sixteen weeks, and anti-rabies from twelve weeks, with deworming from two weeks. Every puppy leaves us with a vaccination card showing dates and batch numbers.

Yes, where the parents are registered and the litter qualifies. The registration paperwork follows after purchase — we tell you at the outset later. Not every puppy is eligible and we say so upfront.
