About the Dachshund
Variety is the spice of life, and Dachshunds (Doxies to their friends) are about as spicy as it gets in the world of AKC dog breeds. They’re one breed with three coat types (smooth, long and wire) and two sizes (standard and miniature). The coat types may actually have slightly different personalities, but they’re all daring, brash - and spicy!
Training
Dachshunds are independent and can be headstrong. They weren’t bred to follow orders, and many stay true to this heritage. Historically, a Dachshund that constantly checked back for instructions would fail when it came to following a badger into its den and confronting it without human intervention. Today's Dachshund is equally independent, with an attitude that clearly says they know better than you do. The breed is also tenacious (some would say stubborn), another virtue when facing off against a formidable adversary like a badger.
History
These Dachshunds (so named because Dach means badger and hund means dog) had to be enough of a small breed to fit in a badger hole, but strong enough to overpower the badger. Those under 20 pounds just weren’t big enough. The solution was a short-legged dog with a normal sized body. Smaller Dachshunds were used to hunt rabbits.
Breed temperament and characteristics
Dachshunds tend to rush in at the hint of adventure, sometimes when a prudent dog might hang back-–or at least come back when you call. They’re unlike any other hound, being bred to perform both hound duties (hunting and trailing) and terrier duties (digging and going underground after tough prey). Like both hounds and terriers, they tend to be very independent and apt to head off hunting on their own. They’re bold, brash, active and sometimes mischievous. They are equally loving, cuddly and (occasionally) obedient.
