alice29 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 A well cared for Miniature Dachshund should live an average of ten years, perhaps a little more. Health problems facing these dogs include: * Back problems * Heart disease * Urinary tract disease * Diabetes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amcfx Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 average of ten years[/quote[If I remember correctly, I've read from somewhere that 1 dog year is equivalent to 7 human year. So if that average is correct the dog's life span is not far off from us humans since 10 dog years = 70 human years. I guess you need to cherish each moment with your pet since its going to live about 1/5 of your life span (assuming you live up to 70 years old) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

German Shepherd I did not mean it that way. I did not intend for you to misinterpret to happen to your pet. Yeah, just get a another one younger so you'll spend much more time with it.
