Editing Alpine Dachsbracke (section)

==History==
Alpine Dachsbrackes, as with the other [[Bracke (disambiguation)|Bracke]], can be dated back to the middle of the 19th century. The Dachsbrache were bred down in size by crossing the larger dogs with Dachshunds. It once was a favorite of German royalty. During the 1880s, Alpine Dachsbrackes accompanied Crown Prince Rudolf of Habsburg on hunting trips to Egypt and Turkey.

The [[Fédération Cynologique Internationale]] recognizes the Alpine Dachsbracke in Group 6 Scenthounds, Section 2  “Leash Hounds” with the [[Bavarian Mountain Scenthound]] (Bayrischer Gebirgsschweisshund, no. 217) and the [[Hanoverian Scenthound]] (Hannover'scher Schweisshund, no. 213).<ref>[http://www.fci.be/nomenclatures_detail.asp?lang=en&file=group6 Fédération Cynologique Internationale Group 6] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081226034217/http://www.fci.be/nomenclatures_detail.asp?lang=en&file=group6 |date=2008-12-26 }}</ref> The only major kennel club in the English-speaking world to recognise the Alpine Dachsbracke is the [[United Kennel Club]] (US) in their [[Scenthound Group]], but they use the Fédération Cynologique Internationale breed standard.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.ukcdogs.com/WebSite.nsf/Breeds/AlpineDachsbracke |title=United Kennel Club Alpine Dachsbracke |access-date=2008-09-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080617035532/http://www.ukcdogs.com/WebSite.nsf/Breeds/AlpineDachsbracke |archive-date=2008-06-17 |url-status=dead }}</ref> The breed is also recognized by a number of minor registries, hunting clubs, and internet-based dog registry businesses.
