The AKC recognizes 2 sizes of Dachshunds:
- standard (8-9 inches, 16-32 pounds)

There is a 3rd size category called Kaninchen, that is recognized by the World Canine Federation. It is a subset of the miniature and is less than 8 pounds with a chest circumference of less than 12 inches when 1.5 years old.
