| Meet my little pooch, Perry! |
The Dachshund is one of the well-known dog breeds in the world. Originated from Germany, this long bodied canine was made to hunt badgers. Even the name Dachshund literally means "Badger Dog". This breed attracted many pet lovers out there due to their temperament. But what is it really like owning a Dachshund?
#1 Woof! Woof! BARK! SQUIRREL!!!!
If there is one thing almost Doxie owners experience, it's the hound's relentless barking. Dachshunds LOVE to bark. They bark at cats, people passing by, other dogs, random noises and even your granny's umbrella. These barking sessions are often really hard to stop. Not to mention their barks are surprisingly loud for a small dog.
#2 We share or you sleep over there!
Dachshunds have a strong belief that it is in the Republic of Dachshund Law no. 2364 that they get on your furnitures, most specifically your bed. They would immediately jump on the bed once they get the chance to. They love burrowing under pillows and blankets much to the surprise of their owners when they accidentally get sat on.
#3 Got it!.... nahhh I'll do it later
If there is another thing dachshund parents would say they've experienced... it's their little friend's stubborn attitude. These little spawns of hotdogs and sausages are absolutely smart. They can learn various commands and remember them, but once they're not in the mood... don't expect them to finish their Potty Training 101 course.
#4 Notice me human!
Timmy can very much tolerate other pets in the house.... as long as you notice him... all the time. Our little friend can get quite jealous when they're not the center of attention. He is very attached to his human and would love it to spend day and night with Mommy Sharla. If she leaves, little Timmy cries.
#5 Y U SAD? DUN BE SAD.... I MAKE LAFS
You are exhausted from work or just having a bad day at school and can't wait to go home to rest. You see your little Papi waiting for you at your doorsteps. He sees you then he starts running around wildy. In the middle of his running he trips and stumbles to your feet. You laugh at him and feel like your tiredness went away. Whether he meant it or not, the dachshund is a natural comedian. Sometimes, their curiosity will lead to something hilarious.
#6 I cuddle you, you cuddle me. Happy cuddles day!
Dachshunds are very affectionate animals... and a bit clingy too. They love to be by your side, leaning their head on your leg. They give you little pooch kisses. They sit on your lap when you watch TV...They curl up beside you when you lie down. Who needs a stuffed toy to cuddle with when you have your warm little friend with you?
#7 I'll always be your pooch for the rest of my life
Like any other dogs, you are their most important person. They will spend their entire lives guarding you, easing your pains,and lend their ears to listen to you when you need them. They won't judge you. All they care about is they love you... that's why we should return that love by simply taking good care of them. Because one day , the time will cime that we'll wake up without them. The companion we spent our time with will one day be gone and we will have to live on without them. The hardest day a pet parent have to deal with.
