Dachshunds : sometimes nicknamed wiener dogs.
Dachshunds are delightful. The breed comes from Germany. They were bred to hunt badgers and tunneling animals. Dachs=badger and hund=dog. They dare to be bold and tenacious.Though bred for hunting, they are ideal family companions .Dachshunds are a good choice for apartment dwellers because of their size and ease of care. They come in three sizes :
1- Standard = 17 to 32 pounds.
2 - Tweenies 12 - 16 lbs
3 - Minis = 11 lbs and under
They also come in three different coats.
1- smoothcoat (short hair)
2- wirecoat
3- long coat
With the variety of size, coat types, and personalities, there is a dachshund to suit almost anyone!
