Living Nature Dachshund

The perfect gift for a lively and playful child. The dachshund (aka sausage dog!) will provide countless hours of imaginative play.

This plush toy was made with high quality fabrics and realistic details. He is available for adoption today.

The Dachshund was bred to be the perfect badger, rabbit and fox catcher. Their long body and short, stubby legs allowed them to crawl into burrows with ease. Today they are used as show dogs and are the perfect family dogs. They are very loyal dogs that love to snuggle up to you after a long day of playing. Because of their long bodies, they have an amazingly loud bark. And they LOVE to use it! They are very brave dogs, and if they think you need help, you will hear their bark before you see them rush to the rescue.&nbsp

Quick fact
Dachshunds were also bred for hunting prairie dogs and tracking deer.
