Canine Trivia #3

Are Dachshund's Hunting dogs?
The name Dachshund is derived from two German words: dachs, meaning badger, and hund, meaning hound. It was in the 16th century that evidence of this small dog was found in reference to a “low, crooked-legged” dog which was called a “little burrow dog” or a “badger dog.” This breed was known for its hunting abilities, including its tendency to follow its prey into the burrow, then pull it out and kill it.

Three dogs survived the sinking of the Titanic - a Newfoundland,
a Pomeranian, and a Pekingese.

Walt Disney's family dog was named Lady. She was a poodle.
