| Description The Dachshund comes in three different
varieties. The Smooth Haired Dachshund, Wirehaired Dachshund, and the
Longhaired Dachshund. The Longhaired Dachshund has a long and straight coat,
with hair slightly feathered and longer on the underbelly, ears, chest, and
legs. The Dachshund was originally developed in German hundreds of years ago. They
were originally bred for hunting Badger, hence the name Dachshund. The
Miniature variety was bred to hunt hare and stoat. Dachshunds are a very
clownish breed and can be very mischievous at times. The Dachshund is a fun
loving dog, tenacious, and lively, but can become jealous and be very
irritable. This breed does not do well with smaller children, but can do very
well with older and more considerate children. Dachshunds respond best to a
variety of training methods.A short walk per day
would suffice for this short-bodied breed. If you are looking for Dachshund puppies
