Small Dog Dachshund
How big does a Mini Dachshund When Full Grown?
I never had a small dog before, always had big. Now I want a small Dachshund that stays small. I have seen standard Doxies and they are big, well big for a small doggy. So how big does a Mini Doxie get full grown, hieght and wieght please! Also can i have hieght and wieght for a toy doxie please!
THANKS!
I have been in dachshunds for over 25 years and have yet to see any dachshund, standard or miniature, even poorly bred dachshund (I am very active in rescue), that was anywhere close to 14 inches or more tall.
My standards are from 9 – 10 inches at the withers and that is where dogs are measured. Now if you were to stretch their tails straight up in the air and measure to the tip of that, one might be able to get to 14 inches. LOL. Even very very bad quality dachshunds will not get to be 14 or more inches tall, and I have seen some really bad ones.
One will find all sizes of miniatures because there is a false idea with the backyard producer and the puppy miller that if you call the parents miniatures, then the pups will be miniatures. Doesn’t work that way. The only place the name “miniature” ever comes into play is when the dogs are being shown and shown in the Open class where any dog entered into the Open Miniature class must be over 12 months of age and 11 pounds and under. Any dachshund who is either under 12 months of age and/or over 11 pounds cannot be shown in that class. The AKC does not register them as miniatures or standards. Just as dachshunds.
One will find puppies being advertised as “miniatures” which will mature out at 15 pounds or more. And there are those who will sometimes sell over-sized miniatures or tweenies. Whatever they are called, they are just dachshunds. If one wanted to be correct, the pups could not be sold as “miniatures” until they were at least 12 months old and only if they still weighed 11 pounds or under.
Now, there are no TOY dachshunds, not even in Europe or other areas. FCI has three sizes of dachshunds and the kanichen is one of those. However, the Kanichen is not a toy dachshund. The title pertains to chest circumference and not weight or overall size. A dog can even weigh as much as 15 or 16 pounds if its chest circumference is under the upper limit for that category. And a dachshund might be registered as a puppy as a Kanichen but then have the type changed when they mature if the chest circumference exceeds the allowable. In the US, we do not have this category but some puppy millers and disreputable producers will use the “Toy Dachshund” name as a way to sucker in some uneducated, unacknowledged puppy buyers into paying more for a runty, undersized, sick puppy and paying a larger amount for it. These pups might just get well and grow up normally and end up being 12 – 15 pounds. Been there, done that, and seen it happen.
If you are going to get a dachshund, do some research and learn about the breed first. Make sure that this breed will fit into your lifestyle and home environment. The breed is wonderful, extremely intelligent, and very versatile but they are also hard to train because they are so intelligent and they are hunters so when that nose goes down and turns on, the hearing turns off.
