Introduction
So, you want to learn about Dachshunds. Who could blame you? They're such characters, and so comically cute to look at, both in their unique physical proportions, and also in their spirited antics. This FAQ attempts to give you the background and characteristics of this breed, so you can decide if a Dachshund is the right breed for you.
Physical Characteristics and Temperament
Dachshunds are recognized by their long bodies and short legs. They are low to the ground, which allows them to enter and maneuver through tunnels. Their senses are all well developed.
Dachshunds like to enter into the spirit of everything you do, They are playful dogs, but they insist on you following their rules of play, which may or may not coincide with the rules commonly used by their other canine cousins. For example, although they often like to chase balls, they don't necessarily see the need to bring them back to you. This is an example of a Dachshund rule of play, and is probably related to their curious, but independent nature.
Anyone who meets a Dachshund has no doubt about who's dog it is, they bond very closely
with their master. A Dachshund's master is never alone -
General Care
It is extremely important to keep a Dachshund from getting fat, not only for the usual reasons of general good health, but also because of their long backs.
