If you have an empty lap and a shortage of belly rubs in your life, Dottie is here to solve both problems! This gorgeous little dachshund is a world class cuddle bug whether that's curled up in your lap, on the couch, or snuggled under the blankets at bedtime. She's a gentle, sweet girl with a slightly submissive personality. Show her a little affection and she will happily roll right over onto her back to show you her favorite target area: her belly!

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.
