There's nothing more joyful than watching a puppy  find its first animal no matter the length of track. I enjoy tracking with my dog more than hunting. I have left my stand more than once to go trail someone else's deer.

I love it!  Just think how good he's going to be when he grows up.

I had a blood trailing Basset for a few years.
It was great to see how excited he would get when he realized we were going trailing.

Your little dog sure is a cutie. He has come far for his age. Din`t take him long to train you at all.

Thanks for the good thoughts, guys!

Most of the teckels you see are wires.

I love to watch a good dog work!

I don't want to post the breeder's info without asking first, I will talk with her and PM you if ok.  As far as coat type...I thought the same thing (based on the blood tracking info in the US).  I was surprised to find out that while the wires are very popular in France and Germany, smooth coat Teckels are more common in some other countries.  They are even treated as different breeds by the European registry - crossing a wire coat with a smooth is forbidden - that is a true smooth coat, not a poor wire coat that never develops the wire hair.  You will find different opinions on the coat vs temperament (the wire coat was developed by introduction of some terrier blood into the original Teckel breed) but I don't know enough about that to comment.  The reality is, for a working dog I would key more on the bloodline and breeding than specific coat type.
