"It's a Dachshund Thing"

[maxfox426]

So, someone I know is trying to rehome a 12 year old dachshund, with the simple description, "Not housetrained. It's a Dachshund thing."

o.O Wut?

This is apparently a widespread belief? People get dachshunds and are like, "Oh yeah, cool, it will poop/pee all over my house for it's entire life and there is nothing I can do about it." ?

Is this actually a thing, or is this just another side effect of stupid/lazy dog owners (which is what I suspect)?


Please, enlighten me if I'm way off track here... LOL!



ETA: Nevermind the rehoming a 12 year old dog part. That's a whole 'nother story in itself...
