I'm happy that you're curious about such a wonderful breed... The Dachshund! I own a dachshund, and I love her s much. The Dachshund was origionally a hunter from Germany. Dachshunds hunted badgers, because the way their backs are structured makes it convenient to slip into badger and rabbit holes. Their size makes it great to not only snuggle, but to fight badgers in their dark holes. In German, Dachs Means Badger, and hund means hound dog.
