Dachshund names?

72 replies

DachshundThroughTheSnow · 05/02/2021 10:42

We're due to pick up our little black and tan girl next month, and just wondered if anybody might be able to help us with some name suggestions? We have a very long list - but we're still struggling to agree Grin our previous dachshunds have all had food names, so it would be nice to continue the theme, but we wouldn't say no to a non foodie name if it was 'the one' Grin

Thank you for any ideas!

Strudel is an absolute winner for a sausage dog 😁

Solo.

I know someone who called theirs that and when asked why he said, "because he's so low".

Awesome name. Also two syllables which is good for calling dogs.

Another vote for Schnitzel (von Krum).

Or Frank (as in furter).

@SmidgenofaPigeon Thank you 😊
@JesusInTheCabbageVan - Dachshund personalities, mine is stubborn, brave, needy, but if a gobshite, she’s a miniature and weighs 4.5 kilos but can out walk all of us, they have incredible stamina. She’s fiercely loyal, loves children and other dogs, chases cats and squirrels. Not keen on the rain and will wee on the mat rather than wee in the rain. She’s the most affectionate dog we’ve ever had (I had a Basset before who was super soppy) and such a character. You can’t walk her without someone shouting “sausage” at her and wanting to stroke her. I don’t think I’ll ever be without one now as she’s stolen my heart.

@Thischarmlessgirl she sounds fabulous! I've only ever had sighthounds, so I do wonder about other breeds.

I saw someone doing canicross with a dachshund once and I did worry a bit, seeing its little legs whirring Grin glad I didn't say anything now.
