Collection: Dachshund

The Dachshund, affectionately known as the “wiener dog” or “sausage dog,” is a breed that’s impossible to ignore — whether for its unmistakable silhouette or its outsized personality. Originally bred in 15th-century Germany to hunt badgers, the Dachshund’s long, low body and fearless spirit made it the perfect burrower. Today, that same determination often shows up as stubbornness, making them hilariously headstrong when they’ve set their mind (or nose) on something. But beneath that independent streak is a loyal, loving heart that forms deep bonds with their humans. Their expressive eyes, velvety ears, and comical antics easily win over hearts, even when they’re mischievously burrowing under blankets or barking at shadows.

These little hounds are equal parts charm and challenge. Their intelligence means they can be clever problem-solvers — or crafty escape artists. Their hunting heritage gives them a nose for adventure, which might translate into digging up your garden or chasing squirrels with heroic enthusiasm. Yet it’s this blend of boldness and devotion that makes Dachshunds so endearing. They’ll fill your home with laughter, test your patience in the most delightful ways, and curl up beside you as if to say, “I’m yours.” For centuries, they’ve been companions to emperors and common folk alike — and once a Dachshund claims your heart, you’ll understand why.
