Why Dachshunds can turn their noses up

Daxies have a big personality in a little body. It’s what we love most about them. The only catch is that sometimes that includes a stubborn streak at mealtimes (even though they might beg at the table for your scraps).

Fussiness can be down to:

Different Dog Logo

Ultra-processed diets – bland, dry food with low nutrients leaves them craving something else

Different Dog Logo

Same recipe every day – Dachshunds are known for getting bored quickly

Different Dog Logo

Too many treats – tempting, but can fill them up between meals

Some pre-existing health conditions like digestive problems or other issues caused by how Dachshunds are bred

92% of owners see positive changes when they switch to fresh food. When your Dachshund is thriving, you’ll notice it in every wag, cuddle and playful dash.

Alfie

Swapping stubbornness for the dinner dance

We have a very fussy Dachshund. After almost giving up, we tried Different Dog. It’s safe to say Alfie is now a completely different dog! He absolutely loves the variety of his meals, and knowing he’s eating such nutritious food makes the whole family happier. The little happy dance he does before a meal is so heartwarming, too!

I wish we’d changed her food a long time ago

Our mini Dachshund has now been enjoying Different Dog meals for 3 months and loves it! She cries with anticipation waiting for every meal and leaves nothing in her bowl. Her coat is softer and shinier and she genuinely is a different dog! I wish we’d changed her food a long time ago.

We couldn’t be happier

We’ve spent 4 years exhausting all attempts to try our fussy mini daxie Freida on various foods. On a whim we tried a starter box and we haven’t looked back! Transparent, nutritious and delicious ingredients, sustainable packaging and an easy, accessible ordering process. We couldn’t be happier, safe in the knowledge Freida has a belly full of all the right things!
