This is Sausage, and he is a professional model (yeah he's taking a rest!) Film makers, Advertising Companies and other media need animal models all the time, and Sausage is on the books of model agency Pet London Models.
I was pleased to find there are other dachshund models on the same site called Kevin and Dave (I love dogs with ‘human’ names!), but was drawn to Sausage in this picture.
