Does any of this sound familiar?

 

Your dachshund has loads of energy, but you’re not sure how to exercise them safely.  

You worry about stairs, sofas and zoomies hurting their back.  

You’ve heard “no jumping, no stairs” but don’t know what you can do instead.  

You want to keep your dog fit and strong, but you’re afraid of causing an injury.  

You feel stuck between protecting their back and letting them enjoy life.

Guess what...you are not alone

Most dachshund owners feel exactly the same.  
With so many scare stories about IVDD and conflicting advice online, it’s hard to know what’s truly safe.
 
The good news is there is a clear, professional way to build your dachshund’s strength, reduce the chances of injuries, and give them the active life they deserve.

Imagine if you could…

Feel confident every exercise you do is safe and dachshund-specific  

Know exactly how much activity is enough (and when it’s too much)  

Help your dog build strong core and back muscles that support their unique body shape  

Reduce the risk of injuries from everyday play, hikes and training

Follow a structured conditioning plan instead of guessing

Because strength isn't build on walks.  Its built through knowledge, conditioning, intentional activity and partnership

Don't just take it from me...

Here’s what other dachshund owners say about working with me and following structured conditioning plans:

I have three somewhat old Dachshunds that came from different homes and backgrounds. As a personal trainer I always thought about what sort of exercises I could have my dogs do but didn't really have any epiphanies until I saw Mabel and Myrtle on my Instagram feed. The course was excellent and I gained a ton of insight into how to help my dogs live out their golden years by being super fit.

Oreo was diagnosed with IVDD last year. Although he recovered enough to walk on his own, I could still see how difficult it was for him at times. Oreo is stronger, more stable, and most importantly, happier. Those training sessions are more like playtime for him. 

My mum hadn’t seen Millie since starting the course and immediately noticed how much stronger and happier she looked — she’s even stopped “bunny hopping” on walks!

We’re still beginners and have a lot to learn, but thanks to Lucy, we’re able to practise from home, improve little by little, and benefit from her professional expertise.

What if you don't change anything?

Without a plan, it’s easy to:
 
- Do too little out of fear and let your dog lose strength over time  
- Or do too much and only realise when something goes wrong  
- Keep worrying every time they jump, run or climb stairs
 
The Foundations for Dachshunds helps you move from “hoping for the best” to actively supporting your dog’s body with a structured, dachshund-specific plan.
