Many breeds of dogs can do this especially the smaller dogs. Some do it because it's soothing to them while others do it because they are nervous. Dachshunds are a breed that certainly need a lot of love and attention and considered 'lap dogs.' I use to own a female long haired Dachshund and she was most affectionate. She'd demand to have her little blanket warmed up in the clothes dryer for bedtime during winter months and would hit my leg with her nose. You guessed it ... I got up and immediately did it. She'd lay in it with a little sigh. Dachshunds do not like changes to routine either. If you are redecorating and moving furniture this can put them off or you are working and leaving the dog home. As you know Dachshunds are big dogs in a little body and their demands are many. if it continues please see your vet to be sure there are no other problems causing this.

Why do dachshunds dig and lick the ground?
Because they are memorizing the taste of their home, owner/owners, ( other animals ), ect. If your dachshund likes people food, they are mostlikely looking for food of any kind. They lick their owners a lot because they love them, it's their way of showing effection.Alternate answer:You could have a licker on your hands. If your dog is a licker, all objects fall into one of these categories: Category one - Food. Eat these. If food is too far away to eat, bark at it so it comes closer.Category two - Toys. Play with these, or if bored, try to rip them. If a toy is too far away to play with, bark at it. It will come closer.Category three - Everything else. Lick it. If it's too far away to lick, whine at it until it comes closer. If it fails to come closer, bark at it, then lick it when it's close enough.
