Dachshunds Anonymous Newcastle

Welcome to all DACHSHAHOLICS!!!!
We are people that are crazy about our sausages, the Dachshund type !!

Dachshunds Anonymous Newcastle – (DAN) is a fun, social networking group for Dachshunds and their owners in the Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and Hunter areas.

This group aims to provide an opportunity for fellow dachshunds and their owners to socialise, network, arrange play dates either individually or as a group. It’s a chance for Dachshaholics to make friends, discuss and share tips about training (or lack there of!), health, nutrition, and general well-being.

DAN meets on the SECOND and FOURTH Sunday of each month. The SECOND Sunday meeting is held at Nesca Park, Newcastle off leash area from 10:00am till 12.00pm.

The FOURTH Sunday meet is an Adventure meet held at a different location around Newcastle, Lake Mac or Hunter Valley each month. Keep an eye on the events page for the location of the Adventure meet.

(If it’s raining, we will see you next meeting).

DAN is interested in the welfare of our special breed; issues such as Intervertebral Disk Disease (IVDD) awareness and assisting Dachshund Rescue Australia with fundraising.
