In fact, there\u2019s even a holiday celebrating them: National Dachshund Day. If you\u2019d like some great tips, treats, and ideas for celebrating your doxie, wiener dog, or special sausage in your life.<\/span><\/p>\n

When is National Dachshund Day?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Also known as Wiener Dog Day and World Dachshund Day, <\/span>National Dachshund Day<\/span><\/a> is a holiday all about celebrating dachshunds and everything about them! The holiday takes place every year on June 21st. Want to know why this holiday takes place on the 21st? It\u2019s the longest day of the year!<\/span><\/p>\n

What is National Dachshund Day?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Originally started in Australia <\/span>to celebrate dachshunds<\/span><\/a> and spread awareness about the breed, its history, and its preservation through ethical breeding practices. Now celebrated worldwide by doxie fans everywhere, the holiday has become a staple for every sausage-lover\u2019s yearly schedule!<\/span><\/p>\n

Why are dachshunds so special?<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Ask a dachshund lover why these dogs are so special, and they\u2019ll list off a number of things: they\u2019re cute, they\u2019re smart, they have great personalities\u2026 instead, let\u2019s talk about the history of this unique breed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dachshunds<\/span><\/a> have been around for over 600 years and were initially bred as badger-hunting dogs in Germany. Badgers are naturally cunning creatures that burrow underground, so dachshunds had to be strong diggers that could navigate tight badger tunnels and outwit them to catch their prey.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How to Celebrate Dachshund Day<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

So, you\u2019re ready to celebrate Dachshund Day, but how do you do it? Check out these four tips for giving your doxie special treatment on their personal holiday:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Get Digging<\/h3>\n

Dachshunds love digging. If you live somewhere where you can get some dirt or snow, let your doxie go buck wild, digging to their heart\u2019s content! <\/span>Creating a special digging area<\/span><\/a> for your dog is ideal for helping keep your doxie from digging up the garden. To do so, get a plastic baby pool and fill it with potting soil or snow. Fill it deep enough for your doxie to burrow in tunnels. If you want to make a more permanent pit, create a small hole and fill it with loose soil. Surround the hole with bricks or stones to mark the area for your doxie!<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Treats Galore!<\/h3>\n

One of the best ways to celebrate the special sausage in your life is by giving them a treat! We have a massive selection of dog-friendly goodies for your doxie to enjoy. This National Dachshund Day, why not try some of our favorites?<\/span><\/p>\n

Sweet, Sweet Ice Cream<\/strong><\/p>\n
