The Dachshund, also known as the "Dackel" or "Teckel" in hunting terminology, is one of the most popular dog breeds in Germany. The wire-haired Dachshund attentively lifts its adorable scruffy head with its distinctive mustache. Ready to go outside? He's immediately on board! This whirlwind is very lively and always up for an adventure. He gets especially excited when he catches a whiff of wildlife in the forest with his keen nose. Then his hunting instinct kicks in, and he tries to track down the animal. He doesn't shy away from caves either. Despite his short legs, he digs holes like a champion. Before you know it, his long, little body has disappeared underground.
