What They're Saying
Critics Review
“These very personal encounters, each rendered in little more than a thousand words, like miniature paintings, tell us so much.” – Hortus on The Generous Gardener
“Attractively presented, it includes sections on the breed’s characteristics, history, training, health and well-being, and advice on living with a Dachshund. Both informative and humorous, it contains stories about celebrity Dachshunds and reports from ‘Dachsy’ homes.” * Your Dog *“A perfect present for anyone who has ever smiled at a passing sausage dog, ie everybody who isn’t actually dead. Sweet, comical and hugely cheering.” – India Knight * Sunday Times Style *“This handy pocket-sized book gives an entertaining insight into the joys of living with Dachshunds of all coats and sizes. Useful information about what to look for when buying a Dachshund, the characteristics of the breed and how to look after and train your Dachshund is interspersed with anecdotes about various celebrity owners and celebrity Dachshunds.” * Kennel Club News *
