The Dachshund is a fun loving dog, often fussy when being groomed. If handled from a young age, the Dachshund can be a joy to groom.

Great care should be taken when working with all dogs, especially long-spined dogs, like the Dachshund.

Here we are working on a long haired Dachshund. Take special notice of how to move safely through this groom without over stretching, twisting or putting pressure on these small legged dogs and their spines.
