Those of us who know, love, and own a doxie know that dachshunds do not realize they are relatively small dogs in the scheme of things! They sincerely believe they are (1) as large as anyone else, and (2) are people, too.
There have been times at our house when our doorbell rang, which resulted in a mad barking spree by Duke, of course. When I answered the door, the mail carrier would be standing on the front porch shuddering--he'd look through the storm door at shoulder height, then gradually work his eyes downward to where Duke was still barking. "Oh--you mean that little fellow there was doing all that loud barking?? I was certain you had a German shepherd or mastiff!"

Such are our doxies . . . but we wouldn't have them any other way.
