An Ode to the Dachshund

Sausage Dogs, Doxies, Wieners...Whatever you call them, dachsunds were originally bred in Germany to hunt badgers (dachshund translates to "badger dog"). Somewhere between the late 1800s and the present day, these fearsome hunters became the ubiquitous petdog you see in cities and towns around the world.These little-legged, deep-chested dogs win the hearts of everyone they pass in the street. Throughout their history, dachshunds have found their home with some of the most famous people of their day; Picasso, Andy Warhol, Bowie, Adele, Jack Black, Dita Von Teese and Queens Victoria, Margarethe II and Elizabeth II no less!With their funny little bouncing gait, big personalites and extreme loyalty it's hard not to be won over by this standout breed.
