About the Dachshund (Wire Haired)
This breed comes from Germany, known there as the Teckel or 'badger dog', having been originally used for tracking wounded game like deer and for flushing out badgers or rabbits from their burrows. This wire-haired variety is one of three distinct coat types. In Britain, two sizes are recognised, with the smaller variety ideally weighing under 5 kilograms. These charming dogs, with their bold personalities and unique shape, are truly captivating companions for those who appreciate their distinctive look.
