When many people think of dachshunds, they picture an ordinary dachshund, but the miniature dachshund is quickly gaining inside popularity. Understanding the characteristics of Miniature Dachshunds is essential to deciding perhaps the Mini Dachshund is the right dog for you.

When it comes to Dachshunds, it is important to remember that size matters. The actual AKC (American Kennel Club) separates dachshunds straight into two size teams for competition. Miniatures are 11 pounds and under with 12 months old and older; Specifications are over 11 pounds, usually falling between 16 and thirty two pounds.

In Europe, Dachshunds officially fall under three sizes: Typical, Miniature, and Rabbit. These sizes tend to be determined not simply by weight, but simply by chest circumference. Rabbits are precisely what Americans would think about the smallest Miniatures.
