Helmlake Stud Dogs & Puppies: DACHSHUND

The dachshund is a short-legged, long-bodied dog breed belonging to the hound family. The standard size dachshund was bred to scent, chase, and flush out badgers and other burrow-dwelling animals, while the miniature dachshund was developed to hunt smaller prey such as rabbits. In the American West they have also been used to hunt prairie dogs.

Dachshunds have a wide variety of colors and patterns. They can be single-colored, single-colored with spots ("dappled"-called "merle" in other dog breeds), and single-colored with tan points plus any pattern. Dachshunds also come in piebald.

Canzocal is nature's own substance, to help correct growth of bone in puppies during periods of rapid growth. It is also excellent for dogs with mobility problems and helps with the rapid and complete healing of bone lesions.

We at Wey Farm, import Canzocal from Switzerland and use it in the rearing of all our puppies. We recommend this to be used with the puppies daily feeding program until 12 to 18 months old, depending on breed.
