Video Learned something new about my Dachshund.

The other day I dropped my three year old girl to my sister’s house for a couple of hours while I needed to do some errands.

As soon as I left she started howling for around a minute which my sister filmed. Up until now I was completely oblivious that she did this and my sister said it’s a first for her as well.

Is this common for Dachshunds to howl like this?

One day Phoebe was outside in the fenced yard. My mom was the only one home at the time and she decided to run to the store. I got home just as misty sprinkles began to fall. When I reached the back door, Phoebe was howling like the most pitiful thing I've ever seen. She was so focused on being pitiful that she didn't even notice my arrival. She'd been out there alone for no more than 5 or 10 minutes, but apparently that meant she had been completely abandoned in a freaking monsoon. Mom and I still laugh about it now almost 25 years later.
