Are Miniature Dachshunds hypoallergenic?

No, Miniature Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. All three coat types — smooth, wire-haired, and long-haired — can trigger allergies in sensitive individuals. While no dog breed is entirely hypoallergenic, some people with mild allergies might tolerate wire-haired Miniature Dachshunds better because their coats shed the least.

If allergies are a concern, it can help to keep up with regular grooming, occasional baths, and clean your home frequently. For those with severe allergies, spending time around a Miniature Dachshund before bringing one home could be a good test.
