Did you know how many notable dachshund dogs and owners there have been in history?
(From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dachshund)

• John F. Kennedy bought a dachshund puppy while touring Europe in 1937 for his then girlfriend Olivia. The puppy, named Dunker, never left Germany after Kennedy started to get terrible allergies.
• Grover Cleveland, the 22nd and 24th President, had a dachshund in the White House.
• William Randolph Hearst was an avid lover of dachshunds. When his own dachshund Helena died, he eulogized her in his “In The News” column.
• Fred, E.B. White’s dachshund, appeared in many of his famous essays.
• Lump, the pet of Pablo Picasso, who was thought to have inspired some of his artwork. (Pronounced: loomp; German for “Rascal”) Picasso & Lump: A Dachshund’s Odyssey tells the story of Picasso and Lump.
• Jack Ruby, the killer of Lee Harvey Oswald, had a dachshund named Sheba, which he often referred to as his wife. At the time he committed his infamous murder, he had four of them—although he once had as many as ten.

• Adele has a Dachshund named Louie, named after Louis Armstrong.
• Stanley and Boodgie, immortalized on canvas by owner David Hockney, and published in the book David Hockney’s Dog Days.
• Wadl and Hexl, Kaiser Wilhelm II’s famous ferocious pair. Upon arriving at Archduke Franz Ferdinand’s country seat, château Konopiště, on a semi-official visit, they promptly proceeded to do away with one of the Austro-Hungarian heir presumptive’s priceless golden pheasants, thereby almost causing an international incident.[70] Another one of his beloved dachshunds, Senta, is currently buried at Huis Doorn, Wilhelm’s manor in the Netherlands.
• Queen Margrethe II of Denmark and her husband own and have owned a large array of dachshunds, both smooth and wirehaired.
• Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld was asked, in 2003, whether he has duct tape, plastic sheeting, and a three-day supply of bottled water at home. He replied, “I would like to say I did. I don’t believe we do. But I do have a miniature dachshund named Reggie who looks out for us.”
• In Zelenogorsk, Russia, is a Dachshund monument near which passes a parade of Dachshunds on City Day, July 25.

• Maxie, a dachshund owned by actress Marie Prevost, tried to awaken his dead mistress, who was found with small bites on her legs. Maxie’s barking eventually summoned neighbours to the scene. The incident inspired the 1977 Nick Lowe song “Marie Prevost”.
• Liliane Kaufmann, wife of Edgar J. Kaufmann who commissioned the home Fallingwater from Frank Lloyd Wright in 1935, was a well known breeder and owner of long-haired dachshunds. At the Fallingwater bookstore, visitors are able to purchase a book entitled “Moxie” which is about one of the dachshunds who lived at Fallingwater. Liliane raised long haired dachshunds and they travelled from Pittsburgh to Bear Run with her.
