Fancy is an Dachshund!
Dachshund means badger in Germany, where this little breed originated. They love to hunt and dig. The low-slung, long body will let it travel underground, into rodent tunnels; while the jaw and head have the necessary strength to face the prey. The Dachshund is courageous & confident and demonstrates a keen nose and loud voice when hunting underground.
Although originally bred to dig rodents from underground, the Dachshund has finally found its true niche - as a family pet! Its high energy will be well spent romping with the children in its own family. The exercise requirements of this little dog can be met with walks on leash, thus making it ideal for apartment life.
The standard Dachshund will typically stand under 9” tall and weigh up to 32 pounds. The Miniature weighs less than 11 pounds and is under 6” tall.
We are pleased to welcome Fancy to our practice!
