About Sasha the Mini-Dachshund | |

Judy just rescued four beautiful long haired Dachshunds. They were surrendered to her by a woman who at one point had 12 of them, none fixed so the males kept getting the females pregnant. Oh my!!! A few months ago she gave us five of them. Now with these four gone she is down to three. Hopefully she'll get them fixed and resolve that problem....
In the meanwhile we have sweet Sasha looking for a new home. This lovely girl is black with rust paws and face. Only about ten pounds, she'd just about fit in your purse!
7/6 Foster Update:
When I first saw Sasha in her crate, she seemed scared to death & backed all the way to the back of her crate. She was not housebroken & did not seem to know how to play! She is coming along with housebreaking & is learning to play with me. Sophie, my other Doxie, has been trying to play with her, but, it just seems to scare her. She does follow Sophie around & likes to sleep on the same bed with her. She is a true "lap dog" & so sweet. She looks up at you with adoring eyes when she is in your lap..She is an "Alpha" thru the fence to Maggie's big dogs, though. My 3 yr. old Great nephew came for a visit & she seemed to get along with him just fine. She will bark if someone enters the house till I assure her it's OK, so she is protective of her house/family.
According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Dachshund (pronounced dak sund) originated in Germany many hundreds of years ago. "Dachs" is the word for badger. The Dachshund was bred to hunt and follow these animals to earth, gradually becoming highly evolved, with shortened legs to dig the prey out and go down inside the burrows. Smaller Dachshunds where bred to hunt hare and stoat. Dachshunds have many "terrier" characteristics. They are versatile and courageous dogs and have been known to take on foxes and otters, besides badgers. Lively and affectionate; proud and bold, almost rash. Tenacious. Can be willful and clownish. Curious and mischievous, they are very clever and may attempt to train the owner rather than allow the opposite. Devoted to his family, some fanciers feel the long-haired variety is calmer than the other two types. The wire-haired variety is more outgoing and clown-like. All are slightly difficult to train. Dachshunds are good dogs to travel with. They are best with older, considerate children and are moderately protective. These little dogs like to bark (their barks are surprisingly loud for their size) and are compulsive diggers. They are generally okay with other pets, however, they can be jealous, irritable, obstinate and very quick to bite. Sometimes they will refuse to be handled. They should not be over fed, for this breed tends to gain weight quickly. They have a life expectancy of 12-15 years.
