Does your Dachshund insist on sleeping under the blankets too?

My Dachshund, Benny, takes sleeping under the blankets to a whole new level. He'll burrow into the blankets like it's his personal cave and will wiggle around until he finds the perfect spot. It's almost like he thinks he's hiding from a giant! It's adorable, but I have to make sure I don't roll over on him at night. I've heard that Dachshunds like being snug because they were originally bred to go after badgers, so they naturally seek out tight spaces.

Oh, absolutely! My little girl, Daisy, has to be under the covers every night. If I pull the blankets up without her, she gives me this disgruntled look until I let her in. It's like a ritual now; she knows it's time for bed when I grab the comforter. I’ve read that Dachshunds enjoy warmth and security, and that makes total sense with her behavior. Plus, I love having her close; it makes me feel safe too.

For sure! My Dachshund, Max, insists on being swaddled every night. He'll scratch at the blankets until I cover him up. It's his way of settling in for the night, and honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way.
