Miniature Dachshund – Caddens

Our breeding program is built on a deep love for the breed and a strong commitment to quality, health and temperament. Dachshunds are more than just beautiful dogs they are loyal companions with big personalities, and our goal is to preserve everything that makes this breed so special. We focus on breeding happy, healthy and well socialised dachshunds that are raised in a loving home environment. Our puppies are handled daily from birth to help them develop into confident, affectionate companions. We place a strong focus on socialising our puppies with children, including children with special needs helping to nurture calm, patient and adaptable temperaments suitable for family life. To further prepare them for their new homes, our puppies are exposed to a wide range of everyday noises such as household sounds and environmental activity. They are also introduced to short periods of time on their own to aid in a smoother transition. Ongoing support is important to us, and we are always here for our puppy families for advice, guidance, and lifelong support. Our goal is to not just produce puppies, but to build lasting relationships and ensure every dachshund we breed is loved, supported and cherished for life. 2 x Chocolate Female 1 x Black and Tan Female (sold) 2 x Chocolate Male (1 available) 1 x Black and Tan Male 1 x Black and Tan Male (long coat) Our puppies will all have had their first vaccination, microchip, and are wormed every 2 weeks before coming home with you. All our puppies will have passed their health check at the vet before coming home with you. We are proud of the high-quality diet we feed our puppies. We conduct full DNA screening on our breeding parents, for all the relevant, testable genetic diseases in our breed. This means your puppy will not be affected by any of these diseases. Every one of our puppies goes to their new home with a puppy pack, designed to make the transition as smooth, comforting, and exciting as possible for both puppy and family. Each pack includes a personalised food bowl with your new fur baby's name, a scent blanket to provide comfort and familiarity, toy, collar and food to help ease the change into their new routine. Our puppy packs are prepared with care and love, ensuring every puppy leaves us feeling secure, spoiled, and ready to start the next chapter with their forever family.

Miniature Dachshund – Toowoomba

I have 3 purebred Miniature Dachshund puppies available. They are currently 2 weeks old and doing very well. We have 2 silver dapple females and 1 silver dapple male. At this age, the puppies are still very young and have not opened their eyes yet, spending most of their time eating and sleeping, which is completely normal. The puppies are being raised in a warm, caring home environment and are receiving daily care and monitoring. They have been wormed at 2 weeks of age. They have not yet attended the vet, as this will be done when they are older and ready for their health checks and vaccinations. Miniature Dachshunds are known for their loyal, affectionate nature and make wonderful companions. These puppies will be well looked after as they grow and will only go to loving, responsible homes. Please message if you would like more information or ongoing updates.

Miniature Dachshund – Armidale

Due to an initial delay and then the original expected owner relocating overseas, Reggie is available again for only the best home. He is a black and tan smooth haired mini dachshund carrying chocolate, longhair and pied, PRA clear. He is mocrochipped. At just eighteen months old he is very affectionate and has lovely strong personality. He may take a little time to be confident with new people simply because he is no longer a puppy, but this should not be an issue. Reggie is used to being outside during the day and in at night. Reggie has had the unitial three vaccinations,l and is wormed as per protocol and is flea free. He has not been desexed. It is important to understand that dachshunds are very people dependant and do not happily cope with long hours alone.Another dog for company is a plus for the times you are out. If you are a family that is away from home most days then this is not the breed for you. Reggie has not had unteraction with children but I would expect him to enjoy their company greatly provided the children are supervised well and are gentle and thoughtful around the dog, allowing him time to bond with them. He will also require time to adjust to a new environment and other dogs. He has not had much interaction with cats.

We have 4 gorgeous miniature Dachshund puppies for sale, 1 Black and Tan Female and 3 Chocolate and Tan Males born on the 18th July 2025. They sleep in a kennel in our enclosed back verandah with access to grassed areas whenever they please. They usually rise with the sun and play together untill they have their breakfast of wet kibble or chicken necks play some more then have a sleep. They like to play with toys, often tugging an end each on the same toy. they love playing in the garden under bushes. Mum gives them attention when needed but has almost weaned them so is keeping her distance. We have three cats that are not the focus of their attention, giving them the space cats so desire. We have a staffy cross female, 12 years old that likes her space, she is gently teaching them how to give her space, which they seem to obey. Mum and dad are very quiet friendly dogs and do not bark at other dogs or people when they go on walks. All puppies love attention from whoever comes to visit and run up to greet you when you get home. All puppies have been microchipped and 2 vaccinations and wormed.

The Ultimate Miniature Dachshund Guide

About Miniature Dachshund

Miniature Dachshunds are often affectionately called Doxies, Dashies or Teckels. In Australia, they are fondly known as “sausage dogs” due to their unusual shape. The German terms “dachs” and “hund” translate to “badger” and “dog” in English, respectively.

Origins

The Miniature Dachshund is believed to have originated in the late 19th century. Breeders aimed to develop a variant of the Dachshund that could still hunt effectively but was better suited for pursuing small game like rabbits. This was achieved through carefully selecting and breeding smaller sized Dachshunds.

Similar to their larger counterparts, Miniature Dachshunds gained popularity in many other countries such as the United States. Initially bred for hunting purposes, they quickly transitioned into household pets due to their appearance and amiable nature.

Today, these small canines are officially recognized by kennel clubs and are cherished as beloved pets worldwide. Known for their elongated bodies, sharp sense of smell, and lively personality, Miniature Dachshunds often exhibit boldness despite their size.

Key Characteristics Of Miniature Dachshunds

Are Miniature Dachshunds Family-Friendly?

Yes. These dogs are suitable for families. They are good with children and make wonderful companions for single or older people.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

Miniature Dachshunds may suffer from:

Intervertebral disc disease

Epilepsy

Progressive retinal atrophy

Bloating

Cushing’s Disease

A condition resulting from excessive cortisol production that manifests in symptoms like increased thirst, hunger, urination, and a rounded belly.

Nature / Temperament

Playful, Independent, Loyal, Courageous, and Clever

Suitable Environment

Miniature Dachshund puppies do well in small living spaces as long as they get some light exercise daily. They can easily adjust to apartments or houses with or without yards.

Other Considerations

Despite their stature, Miniature Dachshund puppies have a high pitched bark. They might be cautious around strangers; thus, early socialisation is highly recommended.

Due to their unique bodies, these dogs are prone to back issues. It’s wise to teach your pet not to jump on and off high surfaces.

These dogs have natural hunting instincts so its no surprise if they tend to display hunting-related behaviours. Starting their training early can help prevent them from digging up your yard or treating their toys as prey.

How can I take good care of my Miniature Dachshund?

Nutrition

For Miniature Dachshund puppies, its best to give them ½ to 1½ cups of quality dry dog food per day split into two meals. Choose food that’s rich in protein and filled with vitamins, minerals and fats.

Monitor your dog’s eating habits as excess weight can strain its fragile back. You’ll know you’re feeding too much if it leaves food in its bowl.

Grooming

The Miniature Dachshund is an easy-to-care for breed that needs minimal grooming. You can clean your Mini Dachshund with a cloth between baths. If you have a wire-haired or long haired variety, remember to brush its fur to prevent tangles.

Exercise

For Miniature Dachshund puppies, it’s recommended to engage them in five minutes of activity per month from birth up to 12 months old. As they grow older (around four to six months), you can gradually extend the duration of their walks.

Start with light activities. Progressively introduce more vigorous playtime while your pup is still young.

Given this breed’s tendency to gain weight, incorporating exercise is essential. Aim for around 30 minutes of play or walking once your dog reaches maturity at approximately one year old.

Training

Miniature Dachshund puppies are intelligent but can also show an independent streak, which might present challenges during training. Patience and consistency are key when teaching them skills, along with positively reinforcing them with treats and praise.

To keep your pet interested and motivated, try keeping training sessions short. Vary your dog’s activities regularly to keep them engaged and avoid monotony. Enrolling your friend in a training program can help them pick up commands quicker and also gives them a chance to interact with other dogs.

This is basic information and should not be the sole basis for deciding on adoption or buying. It’s best to seek advice from a professional to better understand the breed’s care, special needs and requirements.
