We are new to dachsunds so please excuse my ignorance. We have always let our dogs free feed however from everything I've read you can't do that with a dachshund. The morning and lunch time feeding for our puppy are not a problem but what if we are not going to be home at dinnertime? Do I feed him early?

I don't think an hour or two would make a significant impact on your dachshund. He/ she will survive a little wait for dinner. I do agree with you about free feeding. Mine would be a walking, barking eating machine. Weight control is so important for a dachshund. Carrying around a lot of extra weight is not healthy and could impact the spine.
