Fieldworthy.com is the internet home of Dorndorf Standard Longhaired Dachshunds. Fieldworthy is the name of my website because fieldworthy is the goal of my breeding program. I am committed to breeding standard longhaired dachshunds who are smart, sound, spurlaut, of functional size, stamina, and speed, with a spirit of cooperation and a will to succeed. My teckels have excelled in field work, tracking, and agility. Many, many thanks to their owners!

bred in Sweden by Marie Gadolin
imported to the US in July 2002
I loved his character, especially after I became familiar with all the nuances. I loved his size (20 lbs). I loved his moderate length and station, he was not built like a skateboard. I am so thankful for his US offspring, the Dorndorf O litter.
My other dogs spend time in the kennel but Kasi was constantly with me in the house from the day I brought him home from the Newark, NJ airport. He always slept in my bedroom.
When I got home from work late Sunday night, he was lying on his blanket in my room as usual. I thought at first he was sleeping deeply, as old dogs do. But he was dead. I don't know what killed him and I will never know. I buried him in the woods the next day. He was an old 14.5 for a dachshund. His passing was better for him. But everywhere I go in this house, I expect him to be there. You all know how that is.
Rest in peace, my dear old friend. Be waiting for me at the gate.
