Dog breeds that are too dangerous to have at home

Smooth-Haired Standard Dachshund

Dachshunds might look like little sausage dogs, but they were actually bred as hunters—especially of small prey. Like Chihuahuas, they often make up for their diminutive size with a brave and bold attitude.

As with some of the other breeds mentioned, rough play isn’t ideal for Dachshunds and they generally don’t tolerate it well.
