The Miniature Dachshund, often referred to as the “wiener dog” or “sausage dog,” is a small but mighty breed known for its long body, short legs, and playful personality. Originally bred in Germany as hunting dogs, Dachshunds are intelligent, courageous, and full of energy.
Dachshunds are affectionate and loyal companions who form strong bonds with their owners. They are known for their playful nature and can be both independent and stubborn at times. Despite their small size, they have a bold personality and are always ready for adventure

Dachshunds are intelligent but sometimes stubborn, making training a fun challenge. Positive reinforcement techniques work best with this breed. Early socialization with other pets and people helps them grow into well-mannered companions.

Grooming: Depends on coat type (short coats require minimal grooming, while long-haired and wire-haired need regular brushing)
