exact origin of the Dachshund...

No one is quite sure about the exact origin of the Dachshund, but it
is quite possible that the breed which we associate the name with was
standardized in Germany. It is believed that the name "Dachshund,"
which means badger dog, was first used in the 1600's to describe the
longhaired and smooth varieties of the breed which we are now familiar
with today. In 1885 the Dachshund was made a recognized breed by the
American Kennel Club and in 1895 the Dachshund Club of America was
established.

In the dawn of the 20th Century, the Dachshund enjoyed its
status as one of the top ten breeds exhibited in the prestigious
Westminster Kennel Club show, but with the start of World War I, the
breed showed a rapid decline in its popularity. With the unpopular
German sentiment of the time, dedicated individuals would reestablish
the Dachshund in American; efforts which have allowed the popularity
of the Dachshund to once again make the breed among the top ten most
popular breeds registered by the AKC.

The Longhaired variety of Dachshund has been around long before
it was recognized by the AKC and it is believed that the it was
created from the original Smooth Dachshund through selective breeding.
Breeders who were partial to either coat type chose to breed with
others who shared the interest in their particular coat type.

The Wirehaired Dachshund on the other hand is a rather recent
addition to the Dachshund family. It is thought that the Wirehaired
Dachshund is a result of breeding the Smooth with the Rough Coated
Pinscher, and the Dandie Didmont Terrier. With the rapid rise of the
rabbit population in Germany in the 1800's, there came the breeding of
the miniature varieties of the Dachshund.

Miniature Dachshunds, who were first breed to combat the
rabbits, would eventually become prominent members of the Dachshund
breed. This popularity was due in large part to the nine Miniature
Dachshunds who competed in the National Specialty of the Dachshund
Club of America in 1934.

Oh goodie, can't unload the pups from the last litter, yet has another due on
the ground soon...

How nice to see that Dachshunds are still a favorite of the byb/miller crowd

Ouch. And here we all thought that the people behind rocknrollover were
<sarcasm>fine, upstanding members of the breeding community.</sarcasm>

In all honesty, I would contact the webmasters, tell them to remove it
ASAP, or else you will be complaining to whoever hosts their website.

[wienergal]

Rocknrollover has removed the web site they plagiarized from our site.
I have notified Google of the misrepresentation perpetrated by these
people by posting this article with my name on it (believe me -- I'm a
much better writer than THIS!)and also about the fact that they posted
my name and e-mail address in this forum without my permission.

I have received some e-mails from individuals telling me this isn't
the first time they've done this sort of thing. If anyone else has
had or is having problems with theft of their material by this kennel,
please e-mail me. I will send you all the personal information about
the owners that I have accumulated. I have a LOT. It should be
helpful to you.

Thanks for all your support.

I should add that, if you follow the link rocknrollover has included
at the top of her post, you will be taken to a page from her web site
that she has stolen from the Almost Home Dachshund Rescue Society web
site (www.almosthomerescue.org). She was notified of the copyright
violation and asked to remove the pirated page last week. Instead,
she has posted it to a public forum as her own work. This person is a
Presidential Scholar at Southern Methodist University! Amazing, isn't
it? I can't help wondering how much of the work she has passed off
there as her own has been plagiarized.

Please be aware that if you use any of the page she has posted via
this link as her own work, you too will be in violation of our
copyright, and like this person, will be subject to legal action.

:-) Fine words coming from someone who's apparently got plenty of time
to plagarize other people's work. I'm sure that no one will be surprised
that the IP address on this post from "Puppy Heaven" is the same as
the address on the "rocknrollover.com" posts.

I'm curious - does the Dallas Independent School District know that
you're using their resources to sell puppies?

Oh yes. Take for example, this post:
http://www.google.com/groups?selm=6b4451c4.0409220533.2253246c%40posting.google.com

which reads in part:

"Min. Dachshund Wirehair Show prospects, excellent confirmation and a
proven winner. OKC puppy match group 3rd (sat.) and 4th (sun.)
Champion sired. S/W pos hg. AKC. photos www.rocknrollover.com"

Like the other rocknrollover posts (and the puppyheaven post), that
originated from IP address 208.188.3.80, which resolves to:

Dallas Independent School District SBCIS40790 (NET-208-188-3-0-1)
208.188.3.0 - 208.188.3.255

Indeed. What is worse is it is yet another something in
Texas.:(( Well I don't know if it is worse per say
but it sure isn't good.

I can't read those headers and make heads or tails out
of them.

Good catch!

Life is too short to waste it being bitter. Pointing out dishonesty and
taking steps toward it's correction has nothing to do with being bitter.
You make the world you live in. If you tolerate dishonesty then you
foster it. I choose not to do that. I also choose not to regard people
participating in Special Olympics with the same kind of disrespect you
have shown.
