Question: are short haired dachshunds hypoallergenic?
Answer: Dachshunds are not considered to be a hypoallergenic breed. According to the AKC, they are moderate shedders. However, because of their small to medium size, a Dachshund inherently wouldn't produce as much dander as a large dog would. Dachshunds come in three coat varieties – smooth (short), long, and wire haired.
