 Our Readers' Comments on This Breed
   

From Sharon, North Carolina
I find my black short-haired Daschund to be very family-oriented.  Though I've tried, he will not socialize with any people or pets outside of the family.  He is smart, courageous, alert, healthy, perky, happy and sometimes stubborn.  He's definitely a hunting dog. (sharongc@yahoo.com

   

From Carolyn, Kemp, Texas
I have two of these lovely and lively dogs. They have very distinct personalities. They are also very protective of their territory. They often try to chase away much larger dogs. carolynmdgt@aol.com

   

From Dori, Florida
My dog is definitely a lap dog. She is smart and energetic. She is eager to please us but loves to chase lizards and bark at cats and deer outside our fence. She  understands "out"  "cookie"  "lie down" "no". I love her. 

   

From Michelle Osborne, Amarillo, Texas
When I got married my husband said he only liked German Shepherds. I had a mini-daschund. He spent time with her, fell in love and now we have two girl mini-daschunds. The "girls" go everywhere with him. Now he tells people he only likes mini-daschunds and German Shepherds. They don't like other animals and are scared around kids they don't know, but we love them anyway.

  

From Donna Foster, Pennslyvania
I have two wonderful daschunds. there names are Mickey and Jigger. Mickey is a long black hair mini he has a bad habit of eating paper. They are the most wonderful dogs to own. (dove75@comcast.net)
