Dachshund Health
Dachshunds generally suffer from few health problems and are long-lived, provided they are kept well-exercised , fit and fed on a healthy, balanced diet and not allowed to become overweight . The median (average) age of death reported in the KC Health Survey 2004 was 12 years and 8 months. Dachshunds are, however, a “dwarf breed” and consequently are more prone to back disease than other breeds.
