Appearance
H. L. Mencken said that "A Dachshund is a half-dog high and a dog-and-a-half long." Nicknamed the
"sausage dog," as it is low to the ground, long in body and short of leg. A full-grown standard dachshund
averages 16 to 28 pounds, while the miniature variety typically weighs less than 11 lb. As early as the
1990s, owners' use of a third weight class became common, the "tweenie," which included those
dachshunds that fell in between standard and miniature, ranging from 10 to 15 lb.
Temperament
Dachshunds are playful, fun dogs, known for their propensity to chase small animals, birds and tennis
balls with great determination and ferocity. Many dachshunds are strong-headed or stubborn, making
them a challenge to train. Dachshunds are known for their devotion and loyalty to their owners. If left
alone many doxies will whine until they have companionship.
History
Some have theorized that the early roots of the dachshund go back to Ancient Egypt, where engravings
were made featuring short-legged hunting dogs. But in its modern incarnation, the dachshund is a
creation of European breeders, and includes elements of German, French, and English hounds and
terriers. Dachshunds have been kept by royal courts all over Europe, including that of Queen Victoria,
who was particularly enamored of the breed.
