Dachs-Hound (dachs means "badger" in German). This breed includes six varieties with standard or miniature size and short, long or hard hair.

GENERAL Dog DESCRIPTION

Vivacious, intelligent and with strong personality, they have a delicate spinal column due to the disproportional length of its coat, so it is not convenient to abuse of certain activities as climbing stairs, for example, because its overweight demands more effort from the spinal column. They are not afraid of anything and they are great company dogs.

 

The long hair varieties are usually more independent, but the ones with long or hard hair are pretty caring. clothes dachshund dog
