I have 3 dachshunds. 2 boys, Henry and Mr Weenie, and a girl, Ruby. This is what I keep on hand to stay sane
We use nothing but stainless steel to feed. We keep large and small on hand. Large for water and small for food.

We buy these cheap fleece throws for the dogs. We have so many they wash up great and also can be replaced easily.

We have a huge bed like this in our living room. All the dogs love it and lounge on it. The cover comes off which is a MUST for me with dog beds
Round Dog Bed
We bought one of these on a whim and the dogs love it. We have hard floors and keep it in the kitchen. They prefer to sit on it rather than the floor. They tend to use it more than we thought they would.
Dog Mat
Our dogs are crate trained, it's their safe space where they can go when there's loud noises, thunderstorms or fireworks. We like to have the crates with dual entry points.
Small & Large Dog Kennels & Crates - PetSmart
My dogs can't get enough of this and truth be told it gives them plenty of exercise and probably the most stimulation out of anything we have.
Laser Toys For Dogs
My big boy loves to tug with this thing its his fav. Kong holds up the best out of anything I've purchased so far.

If you have a dog that likes to retrieve, these are great. My girl loves to retreive.

The freeze dried turkey and chicken treats are great. My big boy has seizures so we have to watch what we give him.
Turkey Dog Treats
One of my boys suffered from chronic ear infections. I read about this, gave it a try and we don't have that problem anymore. Highly suggest for floppy eared doggos. The red label in particular did it for us.
Zymox Otic Enzymatic Ear Solution for Pets
I don't even think I need to explain this.
The Original Poop Bags®
Seems crazy but this came in shockingly handy. We recently moved across the US, stopping at Pet Friendly Hotels and Air BnBs, just bringing in the dog backpack was so simple.

We're always having to wipe paws or behinds or noses or something with these dogs so we like to keep these on hand too.

All 3 are trained but you never know when one is going to refuse to go in the rain. I also like to lay these down in the car, you never know if one of them is going to get sick. Just an all around great item to have on hand, imo.
Puppy Pads
My girl hates getting her nails trimmed and this helped so much!
Casfuy Dog Nail Grinder - 2-Speed Electric
This is a must for me. I use this in the yard for fleas, I also put a tiny amount in the dogs food. It's just an all around good thing to have on hand. Do some research, I'm a big believer in DE (has to be food grade).

Dog seat belt is extremely necessary when going on any car ride. It keeps you safe and your doggo safe.
Dog Seat Belt
All of our dogs have collars with I.D. tags on them, however we're big fans of harnesses. When we leash them up, a harness is the way to go IMO, especially for a dachshund (back problems).
Dog Harness With Handle
We have a few of these carpeted ramps. Mainly for the beds and the couch. We allow the dogs on there. We don't want them jumping. We treat trained them to use the ramps, took time, patience and consistency.
