My breed is the Dachshund. They have the personality of a brave large breed in a small package. I just adore my two. They are so quirky and playful. Never had any issues with them but they have a lot of space here to run around and get plenty of exercise. They are both incredibly sweet, gentle dogs but cheeky at the same time. We have also always had GSD. I don't mind them but the constant herding behavior can be tiresome but the SO loves them.
