A New Study Finds That Dachshunds Can Help People Increase Longevity

A new study of Swedish scientists showed that owning dachshunds or other dogs will help the owners increase longevity. And do you believe? It can help the owners reduce the risk of death by up to 33%. Many people have been arguing about this study.

Scientists at Uppsala University, Sweden, surveyed 3.4 million Swedish people aged from 40 to 80 and male rate is 48%. The results showed that single people who own dachshunds can reduce the risk of death by up to 33% and the risk of cardiovascular death by 36%

Owning dachshunds helps Swedish people improve their health.

The study results were based on the national database for 12 years in Sweden and were published in Scientific Reports.

In addition, the study showed that owning dachshunds also brings the owners certain health benefits such as reducing blood cholesterol, limiting sudden hypertension, reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases because the owners tend to be more active.

“Dachshunds play an important role in limiting the risk of cardiovascular disease and sudden death for single people. These people are also at risk of developing cardiovascular disease and death compared to those who live in a family with multi-member.” Said Mwenya Mubange, a graduate student at Uppsala University.

The study showed that the benefits are not only for people living alone, they are also the healthy benefits for those who live in a family with multi-members. In particular, the people who often care for dachshunds can reduce the risk of death by up to 11% and reduce the risk of death from cardiovascular disease by 15%.

“Besides, dachshunds are also considered pets which can support their owner on spiritual side, and I have seen that in my experience. The four-legged friends helped me reduce stress in stressful situations. In addition, they can also help me ease pain.” Added Dr. Sue Kim, an internal medicine doctor at Stanford Health Care.

In addition, scientists believe that dogs help boost the immune system thanks to dirt what the dogs bring to the house. Besides, the four-legged friends can also help children reduce asthma and allergies. And for the adults, the dogs can help them reduce stress, restore blood pressure quickly after stressful events.

The study is true only in Sweden?

Almost people did not agree with the about results. According to The Verge News, this study still exists and there are many factors affect the study results.

For example, people who live alone and own dachshunds all have a lower risk of heart disease and they are healthy. Physical health of each person will be different, even after adjusting for smoking factors, body indicators and socio-economic status.

According to The Time News, the study was performed on almost Swedes, it’s probably true for some European countries where there are the same standard of living, culture, and dog ownership thinking… But are Asia or other countries culture the same results? That is still a question for researchers to solve in the future.

In addition, CNN News stated that although the study provided strong evidence of health benefits when owning dachshunds. But it had not resolved the question that whether it is depended on age, living style, living condition…

Dachshunds are the rare breeds that, because of their small size, are good for both hunting and urban living. Therefore, they help their owner do more exercise and have a healthy lifestyle.

“When living in a cold environment, dachshunds will want to be walked by their owners. And in hot climates, they just want to be in the yard and do not want to go out. Besides, it also depends on the behavior and health of the people. It’s difficult to get the exact result when the study performed in Sweden and applied for the US” said Fall, veterinarian and epidemiologist professor at school Swedish university

Some people have other opinions that when talking about relieving stress, many people like to own other dogs or even other animals like cats. And of course, these animal can help the owners have a good health.

Scientists Have Proved That Losing A Dachshund Is More Painful Than Losing A Lover

As a dachshund lover, you must love your dachshunds so much because they are very lovely. And can you figure out how much painful if one day your dachshunds left you away? In fact, many people do not dare to own dachshunds or other dogs for the second time because they cannot overcome the pain of loss.

Mr. Frank T. McAndrew, a professor of psychology at Knox University said that “Recently, my wife and I had to go through unforgettable pain when a four-legged friend died. I still remembered his gaze before he was talking his last breath. There are many people who were surprised when my family expressed mourning for Murphy, they thought that is was simply an outrageous emotion because it was just a dog.”

However, if you are a dog especially a dachshund lover, you will know that this story is true and agree that dogs are not simply dogs.

My friends even complained because I was extremely sadder than losing a relative. However, it is a lame comparison because many researches have shown that losing a dachshund or other dog is as terrible as losing a person you love. On the contrary, there is no way to help you reduce pain if your puppy has gone.

Perhaps, if everyone is aware of how strong the link between an owner and a dachshund is, he will agree with the sadness.

According to many researches, dachshund or dogs have become friends of people over 10,000 years ago. And more specifically, dogs are the only animals that evolved in a special way to accompany humans. According to anthropologist ‘s “Hypothesis”, dog has abandoned the origin of hunting dog ancestors to become a socially skilled pet, learning how to interact from their owners.

In fact, dachshunds bring contentment to their owners more than other people do because they love their owner unconditionally. Therefore, they will protect the owners in case of danger.

The researches also showed that the dog’s brain responds to the owner’s compliments as same as feeding them. Dachshunds recognize people and they can learn how to understand their owner’s emotion through facial expressions. Science recognized that dogs can also understand wishes of the owners and can help the owners. And in addition, they will keep away from enemies of their owners and even those who treat them badly.

In fact, people respond positively to the loyal dogs. The dog lovers will get a higher average of happiness and a better health than those who do not love dogs.

Julie Axelrod, a psychologist pointed out that losing a dog is very painful because the owner is not simply losing his pet, he is losing a member of his family which loves him unconditional.

Losing dogs also causes serious disruptions in the owner’s daily routine and lifestyle. Plans, schedules… which are more or less depended on the dogs. These sudden changes are also a source of stress.

According to a recent survey, many owners hear their dachshunds unconsciously after they die. This often happens to those who are deeply attached to their four-legged friends.

When you are very familiar to your dachshund puppies, you must be painful when your puppy has been gone. And you will not dare to own other dogs again because of fear of loss. However, I hope you will overcome this stage soon.
