Known as the dachsie, sausage dog and wiener, here are some surprising nuggets about the short-legged German dog breed.
Renowned for their dinky stature, calm nature and array of colourful coats, the dachshund has a very special place in our hearts here at Goodwood. So much so that it will be our celebrated dog breed for Goodwoof 2025 (17-28 May).
A weekend dedicated to our four-legged friends held here at the Goodwood Estate, Goodwoof will be complete with games, wellbeing treatments and, of course, it will kick off both days with a much-anticipated parade of canine companions. Dachshund owners can sign up for free later in the year to walk alongside hundreds of other owners and their dogs. The pup parade will be led by The Duke of Richmond and potentially some other famous faces, too.
In the meantime, we’ve compiled some of the most bark-worthy facts about dachshunds…
Burns Pet Nutrition carried out a survey across 2,000 UK pet owners asking how much time their dog spends sleeping each day – with the average nap time across all breeds being 11 hours a day. Top of the pups who got plenty of shut eye? Dachshunds with an impressive 13 hours a day.
They were originally bred to hunt out and chase badgers, rabbits and foxes, with their low bodies enabling them to get close to the ground and into setts, dens and burrows.
Dachshunds come in two sizes – standard (20-26 lbs) and Miniature (10-11 lbs), and three coat types – smooth, long and wire haired. All of them are as adorable as each other.
The breed has seen a rise in popularity in recent years with more than 15,300 Dachsies registered in the UK in 2022.
Thought to have been around since the 15th century, sausage dogs are the UK’s 17th favourite breed. We couldn’t put a ranking on them.
Dash, Ziggy, Fritz and Muffin take the top five remaining spots.
She once said: ‘nothing will turn a man's home into a castle more quickly and effectively than a dachshund’. She got her first dachshund named Deckel in 1845 with Waldman VI later being named as her favourite sausage dog.
This includes red, black, chocolate and dappled. For specific types of the breed, you may also come across cream, black boar or brindle.
The oldest was discovered by a local newspaper: Rocky in California who lived to be 25 years old.
It’s not a good idea to have a dachshund if you live somewhere with lots of stairs. Many older dachsies need a ramp if they struggle. Keep jumping to a minimum, ensure they're a healthy weight and use a harness instead of a collar and support your pup’s spine.
The 1972 Munich Olympic Games had a miniature mascot by the name of Waldi – a multicolored sausage dog.
We welcome all breeds at Goodwoof, not just dachshunds! So make sure to secure your place at Goodwoof 2025 at the best price available. Remember, all activities are included within the price of your ticket.
