Wire hair dachshund puppy

[The Night Stalker]

Several years ago, I read a book, Tracking Dogs for Wounded Deer by John Jeanneney. Since then, I have wanted a wire haired dachshund from John's breeding program. After keeping corespondence with John and Jolanta for a few years, Tonya and  I decided to get on the list for a puppy. Well, the time has finally came and we fly to NY this weekend to get the puppy. He is from the X litter and his name is Ximo. He completed a 125 meter track with several checks earlier this week and it was great to see him find the deer leg working the line. The video can be seen on their facebook page Born to Track.

Congratulations hes good lookin pup. We had dachshund growing up and Dad would drag a deer tail around the yard and hide it as a game for them. I love watching them trail right where he hid it. I just wish I thought about actual useing them to trail down or wounded deer. Im glad you got one. Keep us posted on how he does.

Jealous.  I'm trying to get the wife and daughter to agree to one but Dad already has a Chessie.

I got to see one in action earlier in the year.  After an inch of rain on a gut shot deer.....took less than an hour.  Amazing animals.  Enjoy.

Congratulations! They are great dogs. Our dog Moe has saved the day on a tough track more than once.

Great looking pup. Not only are they tracking machines, they are members of the family. Dogs are good people!

John's book is very informative. It has a great section on different shot placement and signs to look for. I highly recommend it. He has a new edition.

I've never owned one, but I have read a lot of stuff about them (and other trailing dogs). It seems you have a great addition to the family as well as good working partner.

Im about to wear that pups legs out lol.

All kidding aside, Jim Dussias and Bill and Dick Langer are coming to town in a couple of weeks to hunt with me and Ethan. I hear they are bringing a good number of pointy projectiles, and have bad intentions. Might get the little feller on TV.
