Our dogs are sociable animals and we all love seeing them run in the park with fellow hounds. While owning multiple dogs isn’t feasible for all of us living in the city, introducing our dogs to other canines is easy thanks to London’s fantastic social scene.
Has your dog ever met a nice dog on the train or the bus but been too shy to ask for their number? This needn’t be an issue because online dog groups and communities make it easy to meet dogs in London.
To keep up to date with and find new doggy meetups, it’s handy to have a Facebook and/or Meetup.com account. We’ve provided links to all of the relevant community groups for London. Some are open groups and other require you to request to join so you can be sure they’re selective about who gets to contribute to the pages.
Dachshund meetups in London
The number of British sausage dogs has more than doubled in the past decade. As a charismatic but pocket sized breed, it’s no wonder they’re such a popular choice as a canine companion in The Big Smoke. With such a strong Dachshund population, there are plenty of sausage meetups taking place:
