My dachshund daisy was the most loyal, bravest yet most cuddly dog ever! They have so much personality. I had her for 17 happy, healthy years!

[@whitehat8274]

Anyone who has ever had, loved and lost a doxie, knows what a big hole it leaves in your heart when they go. I am so glad that you got to have so many long years with yours. I miss my millie so much.

[@knuddelkatze452]

@@whitehat8274 I know!! Letting her go was the hardest thing i ever had to do! Still miss her! She was the best! Maybe you can get one again if you are ever ready for it! They just make life so much better!

[@atomiccracker]

My Dachshund, Ash, was my best friend for 16 years...I rescued him when he was 2, so he actually was 18 when he passed...Im still having a terrible time with the loss....they really are my favorite dog breed.

100 pound dog in a 10 pound sack! My Jolly is my best friend and my wife’s fearless protector. At 11 years old, he’s a little slower, a little grayer but no less loving. With any luck, he’ll be around for many more years and we’ll grow old together.

[@rebeccajesse4604]

I recently had to put my 18 year old dachshund down. I have had him since he was 12 weeks and I was 11 years old. There really are no dogs like dachshunds. From their amazing personalities to their stubborn streak they are fantastic

My gorgeous girl is a wirehaired dachshund we rescued from Spain when she was 9. She's now 13 and I am so grateful to have her. She is the most loving girl. She was there for me when I was very low. I'm so dreading when we have to say goodbye to her

[@Em4gdn1m]

My dachshund loves to sing. Anytime "Something" by The Beatles is sung or comes on, he FREAKS out singing along. If I say "I love you" he tries his best to say it back with his howling. He is the CUTEST boy ever. I love my dachshund so much.

I didn't know Dachshunds were such tough little dudes. Makes me respect them that much more. Such cute little buggers lol.

I have a Beagle/Dachshund named Gigi and i just recognized a couple of Dachshund traits. She's very active and she loves to dig her way under the blanket. She's a rescue dog and she's full of love and is also a good watch dog. She has a small Beagle like head.

My dashund Mini was 11 years old and she passed away May 19 2019. She may have been small but she was fearless and loyal.

[@LAMODÉLISTE]

These dogs are very unique, I don’t know if you guys noticed but they’re the sweetest, I am a designer, pattern-maker and artist... whenever I’m at my workshop my Yumi stay with me so behaved and just on her blanket and sleeping. Okay yes they’re maybe clingy they want to follow you wherever you are but I guess it’s part of their personality they’re very overprotective with they’re parents. I love my Yumi because she’s so funny, stubborn, cute, well now she’s lazy because she’s 11 but she’s still my baby, like the first time I held her back in 2007. Dachshunds are the best. Just the best.

[@dawnyockey1475]

Our last past away February 1st. I miss him everyday . I careless how they came to be, they are a stand alone dog. So much everything ! !

[@necessitousfox]

No wonder they are so popular since this little dog's bravery and heart is beyond any other breed I've ever met!! I got two and wouldn't change them for anything ❤ my miniature girl protects me against everything, no matter how huge! 😂

[@TR-hy9pn]

I have a chiweenie, and she has the best qualities of both breeds. She's a great lap dog, but also very trainable, smart, and great with strangers and kids.

[@TR-hy9pn]

@Alexis ONeal that's really great! I love this breed!

[@alexanderjohnson8800]

Forever my favorite breed. From the first one I’ve ever owned over 17 years ago I fell in love with them and are the only dogs I want to have. I love all dogs, but the love I have for Dachshunds is unmatched.

[@deeds517]

All those babies

[@comradeGA01]

We have a Miniature Dachshund and she doesn't dig too often, but she does like to play around a lot. Everytime my dad or my sister puts on their shoes and our dachsund hears the shoes, she seems to know that it means that they're leaving the house. So everytime she hears the shoes, she goes crazy, she barks and whines for up to 20 minutes. I've tried to play with her and pet her, but nothing seems to calm her down. ( Our Dachshund also knows that if I stand by the window and call her name, that means that I want to show her something so she always runs up to me by the window and I lift her up. Mostly when my dad or sister comes home so she knows that they're back. )

[@TheSeptemberSapphire]

After three doxies, I've learned they are big personalities in small packages.

[@wilmaettason8856]

I had a Dachshund mix cocker spaniel she passed away three weeks ago I miss her so so much rest in peace little coconut mommy loves you

[@traceandjackiewalker7496]

We have three miniatures, Ronie, Schatzie and Annie. They are simply one of the most loving furry family members I've ever seen. I'll never be without one.

[@bryanabrego3051]

I have a brindle Doxie/terrier mix. Cutest little thing you’ve ever seen

[@KarenRiffe]

I have two boy Doxies. I have one that is 11 years old and the other one is 5 years old. The are AKC. They are my babies and they are also very territorial of their owners. Very good watch dogs. They are very watchful of my kids especially. They make my World a brighter place everyday.

[@annabiotic1078]

My first dachshund was a standard smooth red haired male named Harry. He was the cutest dog. And saved my mother from being bitten by a rattlesnake. Miss that dog!

[@michellelmcgraw]

I ❤️ my weenies so much! I’ve owned dogs my entire life & of course I have loved all of them very much but there’s just something about my Doxie’s that have captured my heart in a way that no others have.

[@ladythalia227]

Dachshunds forever. Thalia, Gaia, Tara and Thia; forever in my heart, RIP my babies in heaven. Tilla; love you, my little dapple girl.

[@sarahwiley2783]

Never had a dachshund before my little Annabelle....now I don’t think I can go without one in my life. I love her to pieces and although she’s a mix of dachshund and poodle, I see so much more dachshund in her! She loves digging, barking, starting fights with giant dogs, exploring, and bothering her sister’s until they play with her. She’s also just learning how to cuddle (she’s almost 4 but she never really liked cuddling until recently) and she’s becoming more loving. I love this breed and the joy it’s brought to my family

[@arbidayoung1308]

I love my Dachshund Honey, she fought off 2 pitbulls and lived to tell about it. She's lovable and protective. I got her from the city pound and she chose us. I knew when I met her she was a special Dog. 💖

Thats all I will own. Naught naughty naughty. And that's the well behaved ones. Lol. Total characters. Actually they own YOU. You better be real firm or your going to be a slave to their behavior.

[@raquelmota14]

You're right. Alongside with their breavery, they are very stuborn dogs, people need to have this in mind before consider adopt one. You have to have a high energy to match theirs and impouse yourself as a leader.

When our female was in heat a german shepard came into our yard and wouldnt leave her alone and our male came out of no where grabbed the german shepard by the neck and put him on the ground. Never seen a german shepard run away so fast

[@deniseeulert5220]

I never had a dog until 2010, then picked up an abandoned chiweenie. Sadly she was struck by a car but by then I was hooked. I adopted a dog from the shelter, and when he passed from back issues I found another dachshund at a shelter. Mauser is watching me from the couch as I type this. He does sleep under the covers behind my knees.

[@Mickeii617]

My family and I are getting a chiweenie soon do you have any tips I've been doing a lot of research? This is our first small dog. We used to always get pitbulls my last one died can bring myself to get another one.

[@melissarivera7376]

Dykejiah Jones I’ve had two! They’re such sweet happy dogs. They’re definitely people dogs and the both that I had were super cuddly. They love to be outside exploring so if you don’t have a lot of space then make sure you set aside time to take them for walks. They gain weight pretty fast too so it’s pretty easy for them to get overweight if they aren’t getting enough exercise. Congrats on your new addition to the family!

[@Mickeii617]

@@melissarivera7376 thank you for the tips, she is finally starting to eat and get a little chubby but she's still very small. Her dad was a blue-eyed pit. He is on the smaller side. I feel like she takes after her dad. I grew up with pits and they were very calm mannered.

[@melissarivera7376]

Dykejiah Jones aww I’m so happy to hear everything’s good so far! My chiweenie just passed away a month ago so I was watching these videos to reminisce about her a little but it sounds like yours has a wonderful family looking after her so she’ll be happy regardless!

I had two smooth cinnamon males, Cecil and The Dude. Once I bred and showed Bassets and I love that breed too. When my son and I moved to Colorado we had His German Shepard Misty, my Basset Jackie, and the two Dachshunds; whom my sons friends all called LOW RIDERS. My house was filled so often with kids and dogs it was my best joy.........then they all left to college the Marines the Navy, the dogs kept my life worth living.

[@skottopx5075]

It's been one years since I had my dog wooo! He is now 2 years old, his name is Boki. It was Loki but replaced the L with a B to be more creative. He's absolutely adorable and is full of energy. Even though he eats things he shouldn't or poop and pee in the house. We still love him to death. Whenever I'm mad at him I feel like he knows and he tries to make me feel better. Whenever I say I hate him, he should know I don't mean it. My mom pranked me saying he ran away, I looked up and down, had his favorite treats in my hand, shaking the bag. I was crying. My dog was in the basement the whole time. He is really fast, good thing we have a big back yard to play in. Boki might do stupid shit but he is my dog and I love me more than anything

[@spklyunicorn]

Our Mini-Doxie, Shadow, is the sweetest, most gentle dog. He never barks, has never growled, and is not territorial at all. He is a big scaredy-cat and hates to be taken on walks. After about ten minutes, he will just lay down. That's his way of saying,"I'm done!" We have a big back yard and keep him on weight control food so he doesn't resemble a sausage. He has slept with our son since we brought him home and 11 years later, he still does. I haven't the slightest notion what we will do when he leaves this dimension. I am sure we will never find another one like our Shadow, half dog, half cat!
