#13 DACHSHUND
Dachshunds—commonly referred to as “wiener dogs”—were initially bred to flush out small burrowing animals like rabbits and badgers. Today, they’re one of the United States’ most popular breeds among urban residents and apartment dwellers.
Dachshunds come in both standard size and miniature, both with a median age of almost thirteen years. They originated in Germany which explains their name—the German word for “Badger Dog”.
