the french work them a lot where i am they go to ground 3 at a time :icon_eek:not for me mine stay on lead.

but they seem to get away with it been out with them lots of times on fox and brocks and they dont seem to get much stick.

there are a few working them here....most are used by stalkers for locating wounded deer, i also know of people who work them below ground on fox, a falconer who uses one for flushing for his birds, a fair few use them above ground in cover. some use them for more than one role!

 

I have a 6 month old dog pup.

 

To get a decent teckel from imported working stock they tend to be dearer than a working terrier.

where did the name teckle come from?

where did the name teckle come from?

 

 

Its actually Teckel....its the european (german/french) name for the breed that in this country is incorrectly called the Dachshund......when the first Teckels arrived in the UK, i imagine the conversation went something like...English man...what are those? german man explaining their role rather than the name of the breed.....they are dachs (badger) hundes (dogs), they were called Teckels n europe since creation....the Dachshund we see today has really suffered at the hands of teh KC and as such imported hunting teckels are stil called teckels so you know the difference!

 

In Germany they also call them Dackels and once they are working they are then refered to as Teckel's...in Poland they are Jamniks (i impressed my polish vet when i knew that word!)

 

I travelled europe last year on holiday, belgium,luxembourg,germany,switzerland and France.......in all those countries they use the term Teckel, i saw a lot of Teckels, in Luxembourg it was a Dutch couple i saw with one, i talked to an old boy in switzerland with a teckel......his last words to me "small hunde, but hunt big things", also had a chat with an old french man in the french alps in my broken french, he had two teckels and had given up hunting as he and they were too old! the french man had hunted fox as well as deer and boar with his
