Yeah, but statistically even the loyal sausage dog would have a better than average chance of having moved on since the ASP launch! (10 years ago avg age would have been < 10 years)

Fun fact: Dachshund actually translates to "badger dog." They're the perfect shape to go digging around in holes in the ground hunting badgers, rabbits, and the like.

just got myself one, he's not even a year old yet. Definitely prepared for the idea of having him around even when in my 40's though.

Be careful, they grow on you. I have 3.

Genetics play a huge role in a doxen's lifespan.
