History and Origin
The Dachshund is a hunting dog. They originated from Germany where were bred more than 500 years ago to hunt badgers and other pests. The word dachs means badgers in German. Badgers have their dens underground so hunters needed a dog able to get down in the burrows. The Dachshund was bred as a mixture of hounds and terriers. The later this breed was crossed with the French Bassets.

Dachshunds are clever, playful and entertaining, lively and courageous. They are excelent pets for children. Dachshund is a very good watchdog and may be slightly aggressive to strangers. Despite their medium size they can bark realy loudly. Short distance walks satisfy their exercise needs. These dogs are very adaptable and feel comfortable in any environment - in a small city apartment or the country.
