Weenies for Rescues

Weenies for Rescues Are you a we**ie or a we**ie parent that likes helping others? The power of the we**ie is strong.

Let’s harness that little leg magic and do some good with it for our community. We’re having the first we**ie race at the Upstate Renaissance Faire. 09/14/25 "We**ies for Rescues," was founded by two mini dachshunds, Emmett and Ida. They had this BIG idea to work with other LITTLE LEGGERS to help all those in need -BIG OR SMALL, WE LOVE THEM ALL!

We had so much fun promoting our upcoming event at Bark in the Park yesterday. It was a double header, so it was double the fun!

We**ie dogs have a magical power that easily wins hearts and convinces humans to bend at their will. 🤣 Let’s tap into that magic and do some good with it. It will be the first big we**ie derby in the upstate, so let’s make an impact and show all the big leggers how it’s done. 😆

As a reminder, all proceeds from this race will go directly to Canine Healing Project.

FUN FACT:

Breed historians often disagree about when the modern dachshund actually evolved, but what we do know for sure is that their ancestors, hounds with short little legs, were used for badger hunting in Medieval times. While the evolutionary timeline of the “sausage” dog we know and love today is often debated, it is thought that formal breeding of Dachshunds possibly occurred in Germany in the 17th century. Some historians believe it was much earlier. We also know that the smooth coat dachshund was the first to appear, followed by the long coat and wire hair varieties.

Little hounds with short legs often appear in medieval and renaissance art.

The painting above is by Adolf Eberle (11 January 1843 – 24 January 1914) He was a German painter who specialised in genre painting, particularly of Bavarian and Tyrolean farmers and huntsmen. He often included dachshunds in his work.
