E. F. Bauer, who has owned, bred, and regarded Dachshunds as family members throughout his life, boldly states: Yes, the focus on beauty is dominant, but that's a good thing! Because the majority of Dachshund lovers today are no longer hunters. Nevertheless, while many breeds may have become fashion dogs, the Dachshund will never be one! This is simply because, by nature, he is far too much of an individualist to allow himself to be turned into such a thing. The book "Dachshund - Hunting Dog with Heart" does not only address these fundamental questions. On the contrary, it is a book that leaves no practical question unanswered. Every conceivable area, such as obedience, hunting training in all disciplines, breeding and raising, care, etc., is discussed in meticulous detail and made comprehensible for everyone. And at the heart of it all lies one thing: a boundless love for the Dachshund.
