Snoop Dog

Dachshund means badger dog in German. They were bred, with short legs, to dig out badgers from their underground dens. But Snoop Dog is much smaller than even the small miniature Dachshund. In fact, you could call HIM a rabbit dog. He was bred to go down rabbit holes to flush out rabbits during a hunt.

 

Snoop Dog is not quite a year old and his human said he is much nicer than the bigger breed.

 

My family, back in Scotland, used to breed standard Dachshunds and, I suppose, any little dog going down a hole after a badger has to have a lot of attitude. This little rabbit dog, though, was all cuddle-me.
