Ask any dachshund owner and they'll all tell you, without exception, that there’s no other dog worth owning. Dachshunds are not only one of the most popular breeds in America, but also one of the most loved today.
But why are these Sausage dogs (a.k.a. Weiner dogs, Doxies, Dashies, etc.) so popular today? Is it their irresistible sausage body, stubby legs and waving tails? or their bravery and loyalty to their humans?
The stubborn characteristics of dachshunds (making them a little difficult to train) can be traced back to those days spent learning and evolving into being great underground hunters. If they were easily swayed, they couldn’t have survived.
Well, whatever the case may be, there are reasons to believe that Dachshunds are actually the worst dog breed EVER!
Check out the 12 reasons why Dachshunds are actually the worst breed ever on the next page!

The best breed, wouldn’t have anything else. My old dachshund was faithful, loyal, great watchdog, very intelligent, a great traveller. Although not perfect, he could be very greedy, Also hated being locked in.

My boy is a sweetheart. So he sleeps a lot, he’s well behaved & well mannered. He can run also. He is well behaved. If I get another, it will most definitely be a doxie.
