Kortharige Dwergdashond 

 

  History 

SIZE VARIETIES OF THE DACHSHUND

The German Standard of the Breed allows for three sizes: full size, miniature size, and the yet smaller size of the Kaninchenteckel. In each size there are the three coat varieties: smooth, long, and wire. In other words, there are in Germany nine distinctly different varieties of Dachshunds and each of these varieties may occur in the many different colors shown in the Standard.
