	Dog and Kennel Magazine Dachshund Breed Profile
		In Soldotna, Alaska, dachshunds celebrate their status as the town’s favorite pooch by marching in the annual "Weenies on Parade." In Richmond, Virginia, the yearly "Bark in the Park" draws dachshund lovers from as far away as New York and Indiana.
		It is possible that smooth dachshunds were later crossed with spaniels and the German stoberhund, a gundog, to produce the longhaired variety.
		Over time the dachshund’s hunting abilities were further refined: smooth dachshunds were used primarily for going to ground, while the strong dense coat of the wirehaired protected it from thick underbrush; longhairs had an advantage when working in water, and miniatures were especially useful against smaller game such as rabbits.

	Dog Owner's Guide Profile: The Dachshund
		The Dachshund was fourth in individual registrations among the 148 breeds recognized by the American Kennel Club with 54,773 individuals in 2000, and second in litter registrations with 30,697.
		Dachshunds “went to ground” after the ferocious badger, a weasel cousin considered to be vermin, bravely drawing it from the den to face the hunter’s guns.
		Smaller Dachshunds, weighing about 20 pounds, were bred to hunt foxes and trail larger game that had been wounded by the hunter, and still smaller ones were developed to draw rabbits from their warrens.

	Dachshunds
		German foresters, in the 18th and 19th centuries, mixed a variety of breeds together, aiming for a fearless, elongated dog that could dig the earth from a badger burrow, and fight to the death with the vicious badgers who were unlucky enough to inhabit that burrow.
		It is extremely important to keep a Dachshund from getting fat, not only for the usual reasons of general good health, but also because their long back is susceptible to slipped or ruptured (herniated) disks through the additional strain placed on their spinal cord.
		For example, if you allow your Dachshund access to the sofa or bed, I would encourage you to get a ramp and teach them to use it when they are young; using a ramp to get on and off furniture, rather than jumping, reduces the shock on their discs that jumping can cause.
