I've had three over the years. Yes they can be stubborn, and yes they can have back problems, but the back problems can happen at any age. Main thing is don't let them jump a whole lot like up on the couch or down or anything like that.
Also don't let them get fat, that adds extra pressure to their back which is no good.
Other than that they are great loyal dogs, Dachshund = Badger Dog in German.

I got my long haired piebald when I was 21 and at LSU. My gf at the time wanted a dog and I succumbed. Best decision of my life. 13 years later and he’s still healthy and happy. Only problem is the barking which only happens when my wife comes home (due to extreme excitement), someone knocks on the door, or he hears an uncommon noise. He knows barking is wrong and stops fairly quickly. Potty training is tough when they are puppies but once it clicks, they are good. He begs to get in bed with us every night and is allowed to if either my wife or I are out of town but it’s too damn hot with him in there if we are both home. Other than that, he loves his bed.
When my boy passes on, I’ll take a break from having a dog. No telling how long it will take to get over. I fully recommend a dachshund.
