Dachshund owners tell me what you love about your dog?

I love my dachshunds for all the reasons you list, plus for their fearless natures. I have had 7 of my own and foster more, have 4 left now. A well adjusted dachsie is absolutely fearless, even my smallest, an 8 lb. mini longhair, will bark at, fluff herself up, and challenge a pitbull if she sees one, have to literally save her from herself at times.

Dachsies are huge dogs in small bodies, amazing little hunters, very prey driven - you have to keep them on leash or securely fenced or they'll go after anything that runs or that they can track.

With all that, they are loyal, loving, affectionate - doesn't get getter than a dachsie - a real dog in a small package.

My dog, Lola who is a dachshund is every sweet and entergetic. She loves people.

i love how mine sits on his bum with his front paws in the air to beg
