This is Elkie the deer tracking dog. Elkie is a Wirehaired Dachshund with German parentage, and she was born to track deer. In fact when I Google "Born to Track", I see a pic of a Wirehaired Dachshund with a deer.

Elkie's training began when she was 8 weeks old, and she could have recovered a deer, on a short 100 yard track, at 12 weeks. This is Elkie doing a river crossing.
