5 Interesting Facts About Dachshunds!

Dachshunds were originally bred in Germany to hunt badgers - their name literally means 'badger dog' in German, and their long bodies and short legs were perfect for squeezing into underground burrows.
Despite their small size, dachshunds have a remarkably loud, deep bark - far bigger than you'd expect from such a small dog, which made them useful for alerting hunters above ground.
They come in three coat types - smooth, long-haired and wire-haired - and two sizes, standard and miniature, giving you six different combinations to love.
Dachshunds have an extraordinarily strong prey drive and will fearlessly take on animals many times their own size - they're bold, stubborn and completely unaware of their own dimensions.
The dachshund was the first official mascot of the Olympic Games - a dachshund named Waldi was chosen as the mascot of the 1972 Munich Olympics, and the marathon route was designed in his shape.
