Any other color, dogs—Red Rowland has a dachshund front, but a rather good head; Little Ben II. is rather long, too much cut out before eye, and feet turn out.[…]Dachshunde are evidently making a move to the front.

For next the bull-dogs were the Dachshunde, with their short bow-legs, their flat little paws that can dig so quickly into the ground, and their long thin bodies and pointed noses.[…]And the great mastiff, who hardly considered the Dachshund worthy of his notice before, begins to see some use in those tiny legs, and wishes he had been able to get the mouse himself.

When we came to the place we found the foresters watching the dachshunde. These I discovered to be long, flat, shallow dogs with stumpy legs—a dog which an American has described as “looking as if he was always coming out from under a bureau.” Very cautiously here and there the foresters uncovered a burrow, and a dachshund disappeared. Then from below ground came the sounds of fighting. The dachshunde had found their prey.

IF we can believe our old, wise searchers or investigators, the Dachshund belonged to the oldest breed of dogs known in ancient times.[…]Since the Sixteenth Century German literature speaks of the Dachshunde, although they are described differently at times, as, for instance, the “little earth dog or hole dog.”

4) The dog is a dachshund, true. But didn’t someone say that “one cannot indict a whole race . . . of dachshunde”? / 5) There are plenty of dachshunde here in America and elsewhere, who have proven to be excellent dachshunde indeed.
