Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund (short coat). Online Adoption Application This girl came from a kill shelter, from what we heard they found her in a trap looking for food. She does like to eat. LOL. She is a good girl, we are working on her skin, as she seems to have skin allergies, whether it was from fleas or environment. Older calm girl, but still has some spunk. loves to go outside, loves treats and chew toys, may be a little hard of hearing, but can hear. Good girl and low maintenance. Seems to have cataracts, cloudy eyes due to age.

Overview:
The Dachshund, affectionately known as the "wiener dog," is a fascinating breed originating in Germany, primarily bred to hunt badgers and other burrowing animals. Their most distinctive physical characteristic is their long, low-slung body and short, muscular legs, a feature perfectly adapted for tunneling. They come in three coat types – smooth, longhaired, and wirehaired – and various sizes, from miniature to standard. Temperamentally, Dachshunds are known for being courageous, curious, and often quite playful, with a surprising amount of energy. While they are intelligent, their independent nature can make training a delightful challenge. Their small size and relatively low exercise requirements make them well-suited for apartment living, and they can be wonderful companions for families, though early socialization is key, especially with children and other pets. Regarding health, their unique body shape predisposes them to intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), so careful handling and weight management are crucial.
