A lively, courageous little dog!
With their small size and short, bowed limbs, the Dachshund's instantly recognisable silhouette is one of the reasons for their immense popularity. A superb and tireless hunter, they are afraid of nothing and is an excellent guard dog. In town, they need regular exercise. Their lively, affectionate nature makes for a charming companion.
Royal Canin's specially formulated food for Dachshund's focuses on three main areas:
Protecting the joints as a priority - The Dachshunds short legs are very poor at absorbing shocks, so their spinal column absorbs some of the vibration instead. Over time, disc problems can arise. This formula Hhlps support the joints in the Dachshunds short limbs (whose vertebrae are subjected to severe mechanical stresses)
and maintain optimal hydration of the cartilage, thanks to the combined action of glucosamine, chondroitin and the high intake of EPA-DHA fatty acids.
Weight control - Excess weight plays a decisive role in a dog of this size, and also puts strain on the Dachshunds intervertebral joints. Ideal weight must be maintained with a food which encourages good muscle tone.
Very long life expectancy - With a remarkably long average life expectancy of 12 years, the Dachshund needs protection against age-related risks from as early an age as possible, to help slow down the classic signs of ageing: loss of dynamism and appetite, joint pain.
