Are dapple gray dachshunds rare?
There are lots of different Dachshund colors and coats. I have a double E recessive cream long hair. It is really rare to have one like this because he is totally cream colored (blonde). Most creams are shaded, they have black or red tips on there hair. I would think that the most rare would be one with a gene recess like mine or a blue. Blues have thin hair and also leads to thin skin. They have problems and are hard to care for which makes them very seldom bred.
How many nicknames are there for the dachshund?
Firstly, you look for a short cute name that you like. If the dog already has a full name just make up a shorter one using the letters in the dogs name. If the dog doesnt have a full name and you are that stuck, look at him/her and think about what he/she reminds you of. Whether its a food or anything else. Its easy!!

A Dachshund can be 14-18 inches (35-45cm)
Basically, a Dachshund has different sizes. For example, a mini is a small one, and looks a lot smaller than a regular one. A tweenie, (which just happens to be the size of mine) is in between, and can grow about 7 in. off the ground, my estimation. Last, there is a full. Wich can grow very big, but i cannot say how. I have never seen a full one. I know, its sad.

"Piebald Dachshund" is not a dog breed, but "piebald" is a type of marking and "Dachshund" is a breed of dog.
Dachshunds are dwarf dogs that originated from Germany and were first used for flushing badgers. They come in two sizes: Standard and Miniature; and three coat types: Smooth, Longhaired and Wirehaired. Standards can weigh from 16 - 32 pounds and Miniatures can weigh 11 pounds or under, but despite their size, Dachshund have brave and confident personalities, reflecting their first use for attacking badgers.

How much do miniature dachshunds cost?
Miniature monkeys can range in price but are around $3000-$10000 (american currency.) If you are thinking about purchasing/adopting a miniature monkey, I would think twice. They are very expensive to take care of them, if you do it even partially right. Monkeys usually do not stay with the same owner and get passed around, owner to owner, and usually end up getting put down. They can carry diseases and cause death or serious injury to the owner and its family. If your looking for a quirky, cute, and unique pet, get a potbelly or teacup pig.

Pugs often are described as a lot of dog in a small space. These sturdy, compact dogs are a part of the American Kennel Club's Toy group, and are known as the clowns of the canine world because they have a great sense of humor and like to show off. Originally bred to be a lap dog, the Pug thrives on human companionship.
PUGS ARE THE CUTEST DOGS ALIVE !!!!!! I LOVE PUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Age a male dachshund can breed?
Usually dogs can start breeding at the age of 6 months but I recommend that you wait a year oxox Dachshie Lover
Yes they are very intellegent. I have two and they are pretty easy to train.
No No they shouldn't be left out. Small dogs can come under the heading of "lap dogs" meaning they are small enough to sit on one's lap and are meant to be close companions in the household. I once owned a long-haired Dachie who was always close to me and I would no more think of having left her outside (even in a kennel) than I would put a small child outside for the night. Preditors can also attack small dogs and do. Even in cities there are coyotes and once where I live in B.C. in a large town I saw a 400 lb. bear amble up my driveway (over-fed itself and no real risk) but my eyes bulged out of my head and I was glad I kept my small dogs inside. If you don't like your small dog sleeping with you then train them to go to their cushion in the corner of the bedroom (they love to be close to their owner.) My husband and I don't mind our small dogs in bed with us and if we want some privacy they are told to go to their cushion in the front room. If you find this breed a dog too much for you then either give or sell your dog to someone who will give them the love and attention they should. Too many people never check out the breeds that would best suit their home before purchasing a dog. Don't take the chance, something might come into your yard and kill it, that's what happend to my bunny. :(
Why do dachshunds have so much extra skin?
Dachshunds were bred to hunt small animals such as rabbits, who run and hide in their holes to get away from the dachshund. The extra skin makes it easier for the dachshund to retreat from the hole after catching their prey.
What were dachshunds bred to do?
hunting badgers.
this is why dachshunds are ideally shaped for badger burrows, are highly intelligent and independent, LOVE to dig (and burrow under blankets), have large ribcages for inside-burrow breathing, are keen scent-trackers, and can be very tenacious if in "attack" mode.
Yes! Long-haired Dachshunds shedding is much more noticeable, but it doesn't occur all the time. Short-haired Dachshunds shed year-round, but you can't really tell. I'm not sure about wire-haired ones, though.
