	Dachshunds (also known as Teckels, Dachels, or Dachsels) originated in Germany. These dogs were orginally bred to hunt badgers.
Dachsie's short legs and long bodies allow them to easily make their way through the badger's tunnels. They love to hunt outdoors and this instinct follows them indoors, where they love to burrow through blankets.  Mac 'n Tosh can be found summer or winter, sleeping under their Teckel Decke© (Dachshund blanket). I have now made them one for each room in the house.

Blanket washing day is exciting for Mac. He waits til I open the dryer door, so he can pluck out his own blanket, never taking a towel or rug by mistake. Tosh has no interest in laundry day.

At the Beach Dachsies are very curious creatures. Sometimes investigations warrant swimming out to a suspicious rock. On other occassions two sniffers are needed to identify an unusual lump of sand. Mac n' Tosh always hope that"Goforaride?" includes the beach.
Tosh especially enjoyed late afternoon hunting (when it's not so hot). Hunting lizards takes constant vigilance. Sometimes those critters can sneak up from behind, jump out of trees or bite a nose exploring bushes!
