Why does my dachshund randomly stop during walks?

When I take him on walks like, halfway he will just stop! and then he won’t move at all!! so I end up picking him up and walking home holding him! lol

Answer #1

Possibly pain…but I’d lean more towards the fact that he’d done walking…he knows you’ll pick him up, and carry him home. And he’s just fine with that.

Answer #2

Daschunds have a lot of stress on their legs especially if they’re over weight. I agree with the person above, give them a little break b/c they usually have low stamina.
