The Dachshunds, a.k.a. The Dachsies, are characters from Disney's The Ugly Dachshund. They are a family of four Dachshunds belonging to Mark and Fran Garrison. Danke, wearing a black collar, is the mother of three puppies: Wilhelmina (yellow collar), Heidi (red collar), and Chloe (blue collar). Of all 4 Dachsies, Chloe is Fran's second favorite one; the first being Danke before the pups' birth. They are also Brutus the Great Dane's foster family.
The Dachsies (minus Danke) often lead Brutus into many troubles, knowing that they will always be proclaimed to be innocent, leaving their adoptive brother to be blamed. An example of this is when the girls string out all the yarn and Brutus trips over it, causing a huge mess.
