Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund (short coat). Almost 3 yr old 12 # Stella would thrive in an only dog or one other dog situation. She was in a pack previously and it wasn't for her. She likes other dogs but needs one on one love and time to grow up. She still hasn’t overcome a puppy habit of eating other dogs poop. She’s affectionate, potty trained, and very well behaved. She loves to sit on your lap and watch TV with you. We are looking for someone who is around a lot for her

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.
