Definitive evidence of the Dachshund as a breed isn't found until the 16th century, when reference was made to a "low crooked-legged" dog called a little burrow dog, Dacksel or badger dog. The modern name dachshund means simply badger (dachs) dog (hund) in German. These tenacious hunters would follow their quarry, enter its burrow, pull it out and kill it. The Dachshund comes in three coat varieties and two sizes. The original dachshunds were smooth-coated and arose from crosses of the Bracke, a Miniature French Pointer, with the Pinscher, a vermin killer of Terrier type.

Some 16th-century woodcuts provide evidence of longer-haired Dachshund-like dogs. It is also possible that smooth Dachshunds were later crossed with spaniels and the German Stoberhund (a gun dog) to produce the longhaired variety. Mention is made of Wire-Coated Dachshunds as early as 1797, but these dogs were not carefully bred and most modern wires were created around the end of the 19th century by crossing smooth Dachshunds with German Wirehaired Pinschers and the Dandie Dinmont terrier. Each of these varieties was best suited for hunting under slightly different terrain and climatic conditions, but all were tough, strong dogs capable of dispatching badgers, foxes and other small mammals. Before 1900, very small Dachshunds were kept for going to ground after small quarry, such as rabbits. Although some were simply runts, others were intentionally produced from crosses with Toy Terriers or Pinschers. Most of the resulting miniatures lacked Dachshund type, however. By 1910, stricter criteria were adopted for type, and each coat type was crossed with different breeds to achieve the best results: Smooths were bred with the Miniature Pinscher, longs with the Papillon and wires with the Miniature Schnauzer.

The Dachshund has since found his real niche as a family pet, steadily rising in popularity to hold a place as one of the most popular hounds in America.

DARE – Dachshund Adoption Rescue and Education is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is rescuing, rehabilitating, and re-homing dachshunds and dachshund mixes regardless of the condition in which the dog was received. Our dogs spend time in foster care so we can evaluate their behaviors in a home setting, which is far less stressful than being in a shelter setting. We find through our foster homes we can give potential adopters information on the specific dog they are interested in and how they may interact with kids, other dogs, and cats, and identify any other behavioral issues a potential adopter is concerned about.

Having these observations are critical to making a good match. We also work on house training skills if they are not already house trained and social skills. Our foster homes provide love, training, structure, and medical care so that when you are ready for your new family member, they are ready for you.

 All dogs adopted out by DARE have been checked out by a veterinarian. The following procedures have been completed prior to adoption and you will be provided with all corresponding medical records: Fecal tested – negative Heartworm test – negative* Dental cleaning, if needed * If they are found heartworm positive, they are treated, as long as they are deemed healthy enough to undergo the treatment. If not, we examine what options are available or keep them in foster while improving their health status. ALL DARE fosters receive monthly heartworm preventative. We also try to identify and treat any long-term conditions such as allergies, diabetes, etc. so that you, as the adopter, know what you are committing to.

How Do We Do It? ITS SIMPLE: We are able to accomplish this through the generosity of donations from everyday people just like you. We also receive funding through various fundraising activities such as: Our eBay Store, where 100% of the profit goes to the DARE vetting fund Charity events throughout the state Calendar contest and sales Our annual Dox-a-Palooza event, which is held the first Saturday in November and brings people from all over the US for games, contests, auctions, raffles, wiener races, and more Every donation, no matter how big or small allows DARE to continue to save doxies in need.
