   One of my friends had a chocolate daschshund that he had trained   
   to detach a guy's balls on command.  It was a very nice doggie,   
   friendly to all, including children.  I thought my friend was joking   
   when he told me what he trained his dog to do.  Until my friend gave   
   his dog the command.  Fortunately (for me) I was standing on steps   
   at the time he gave the command, the dog's teeth missing my balls   
   by a fraction of an inch.   
      
   Do all daschshunds have an urge to eat a guy's balls?   
   I don't think so.  Daschshunds have to be trained to do that.   
   By somebody who has a very evil mind...
