Also known as the Doxie
- Bold
- Curious
- Stubborn

Most often The Daredevil
The Dachshund is a big dog in a small, determined package — bold, curious, and famously stubborn. Bred to hunt underground alone, they are brave, clever, and convinced they are in charge, with a comedic streak that keeps their people laughing. Devoted to their person, allergic to being told what to do.
Personality types a Dachshund often is
That brave, mischievous, do-it-my-way spirit is why Dachshunds often land as The Daredevil, The Creative Rascal, or The Lone Wolf.
Of course, every Dachshund is an individual — breed is a head start, not a personality. The only way to know your dog's type for sure is to ask them.
