Dachsunds The Little Dogs With Attitude

;

First, let me explain myself. I am not impartial to Dachshunds. I owned two beautiful Long Haired Miniature Dachshunds for 15 years. My boss had a Miniature Wire Haired Dachshund that often came into the office. And close friends of mine Long Haired Miniature Dachshunds as pets.

We had miniature dogs at that time because we worked, and they fit perfectly into our working schedule. They were little enough to keep in the house while we were gone to work.

Evidence of the Dachshund as a breed is not found till the sixteenth century. Back then they were called the Little Burrow Dog, Dacksel, or Badger Dog. The modern name means badger (dachs) and hund, meaning dog in German.

These dogs would follow its prey, enter the burrow, pull it out and kill it.

The original Dachshund was smooth, with the possibility of the long haired being bred with the German Spaniels and the wire haired were bred with Pinschers and the Terrier.

The Dachshund is very bold, extremely curious and always up for adventure; and I can attest to this first hand. The Dachshunds is very good with children in its own family, but may snap at other kids. They are not really sociable dogs. They love the outdoors.

If you give it moderate walks on a leash that will fulfill their exercise requirement. But again, they love the outdoors.

One of the major issues with these dogs is disc disease. They have a lifespan of 12-14 years. Obesity can be a problem, so feed it good premium food, but not too much.

The Dachshund has a very pleasant expression. They are very loveable within their own family.

The Hound Group:

Hounds are one of the very oldest groups of dogs. The sight hounds obviously pursue by sight, the scent hounds pursue their prey by scent. Some breeds pursue their prey by both sight and scent, and yet others do not seem like hound dogs at all. All hound dogs have in common their pursuit their quarry. The hound dog does not wait for direction, rather it leads the way in pursuit.
