NO! Dachshunds need lots of exercise because of the way they're built. They tend to have back trouble because of their extended length, and if they start carrying even a little too much weight, they'll slip a disc. I had this happen to my 5-year-old doxie Lil Bit, and as I was in a wheelchair at the time, I couldn't take care of her (she couldn't go up or down stairs, jump on the furniture, run, play, etc., without injuring herself further.) I ended up having to put her to sleep because no one would take her, even the Humane Society.

You shouldn't buy a dog if you don't have enough time to walk it :Sall dogs need exercise, no matter what shape or size.
So no dog is a good breed if you do not have time to walk it.
