| Description | |||
| A long, low dog with short, powerful legs and a long tapering muzzle with very strong jaws and teeth. The ever-popular Dachshund comes in three distinct coat varieties, smooth, long-haired and wire-haired, and in two sizes, standard and miniature. The usual coat colors are solid red, black and tan, chocolate, and wild boar dappled with brindle. The ears are pendant. The dark, medium sized eyes are almond shaped. Black is the preferred nose color. The teeth should meet in a scissors bite. The sternum (chest bone) is very prominent, providing a powerful front end for underground digging. The front paws may be angled slightly outward. Front dewclaw removal is optional, but rear dewclaw removal is mandatory for showing. | |||

| History | |||
| The first documentation of a Dachshund-type dog is found in an Egyptian pharaoh's tomb that is than 5000 years old. The dog's length was developed (probably from natural short-legged mutations) to help dig den animals out of their holes, particularly the badger ("dachs" in German.) The smaller varieties could actually go into rabbit warrens to scare out the hiding rabbits. The Dachshund is still used as a rabbit and small game hunter today in some countries, and there are AKC field trials for the breed in the United States. Above all, today's Dachshund is prized as a companion dog. | |||
