Tiny dog goes after dolphin five times his size

A little wiener dog hunts a dolphin, doesn't realize -- it's a little wiener dog.

Little wiener dogs often have big, bad attitudes.

In this clip, a fiery little dachshund sits a the end of a a boat, ready to fight. Who does she want to go after? What's the reason? Nobody knows, and nobody's stopping this pugnacious pup.

Suddenly, the dog sees a dolphin in in the distance and goes after it. She doesn't let her size, biology or the laws of physics get in her way. She sees what she wants and she goes for it -- she leans in.

An irrational role model, for us all.
