About Wirehaired Dachshunds
The Dachshund originated in Germany over 300 years ago, developed primarily for hunting badgers, which is reflected in their name. "Dachs" meaning badger and "hund" meaning dog. Their long, low bodies and strong, paddle-shaped front paws were specifically designed to dig into burrows and confront prey underground. Over time, different sizes of Dachshunds were bred to pursue a range of game, from badgers to rabbits and even wild boar. While their hunting instincts remain strong, Dachshunds eventually transitioned into beloved companion animals. They gained international popularity in the 19th and 20th centuries, admired for their bold personality, loyalty, and unmistakable appearance. Today, they are known as both spirited family pets and iconic show dogs, with three coat varieties (smooth, long-haired, and wire-haired) and two sizes (standard and miniature).
