Our Dachs-Life 2012 Breed Health Survey showed that the incidence of cancers in Dachshunds is, thankfully, low at 3.5%. Mammary Tumours, particularly in Mini Longs, accounted for just over a third of all cases.
Kirsty Crossley, who sadly lost her Mini Long due to a Sarcoma, has written a short case study describing her experience. She includes a description of the symptoms to look out for in the hope that other Dachshund owners may be able to identify any potential Sarcoma as early as possible.
The case study is published on our Health website here.
