    It's supposed to be pronounced as Dacks-hund or Dox-hund. I say that latter.

    They are not Dutch-hounds, Dash-hounds, Datsuns, etc. Lol...Having had Dachshunds throughout my life, it does tend to get a bit annoying when people continually mispronounce their breed name.

    lol I don't think I can even pronounce it a little right, when I say it, it's kind of like "Dash-hond".

    Dox-hund is how I pronounce it. But I usually try to stay away from pronouncing it and just say Doxie.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
