Understanding the Dachshund coat
Smooth Dachshunds have a short, close coat that sheds lightly and needs a good bath, dry and brush. Long-haired Dachshunds have silky feathering on the ears, chest, legs and tail that tangles if it is not brushed through. Whatever the coat, Dachshunds are handled with their long back supported and are never lifted awkwardly.
Single-layer coats that shed fine hair year round. No haircut needed — a deep bath, blow dry and thorough brush out does the work. That puts Dachshunds on our Signature Bath & Brush package.

Dachshund grooming questions
Do smooth Dachshunds need grooming?
They do not need a haircut, but a regular bath, brush-out, nail trim and ear clean keeps the coat and skin in good condition.
How do you handle a Dachshund's back?
We support the chest and hindquarters whenever the dog is moved and avoid awkward lifting or twisting. Sessions go at your dog's pace.
Why does a long-haired Dachshund cost more?
Long-haired coats need more drying, brushing and feathering work. A long-haired groom starts at £50 and typically takes around 60 minutes, compared with £40 and around 30 minutes for a smooth coat.
