The Dachshund was developed in Germany over a period of several hundred years. It is a small, compact hound dog whose legs are short and body is long. The head is long and wedge shaped with pendulous or “floppy” hound ears. The standard dachshund was originally bred for the strength and tenacity to hunt badgers (a mean and nasty, aggressive animal which lives in tunnels) as they can be a ferocious hunter and due to their unique body style, they can dig out the badgers. The Dachshund originally weighed in at 30-40 pounds in order to expeditiously handle a badger, but they were also used to hunt smaller animals, trail wounded deer and hunt wild boar. Consequently, some (but definitely not all) dachshunds have a strong desire to help you dig up your plants and flowers, explore your neighbors yard, or hunt down furry creatures such as cats, squirrels or other varmints.

Dachshunds are still used as a hunting dog and excel at hunting small rodents such as rabbits, mice and woodchucks. They have a keen sense of smell and their short legs can move amazingly fast. The Dachshund is the only American Kennel Club breed that can and does hunt both above and below ground. The breed is very loyal and protective of its territory, home and family.
