Good to know
- A designer cross: a mix of the Dachshund and a Poodle (usually Toy or Miniature), so size, coat and temperament vary with the parents.
- Possible digger: the Dachshund side was bred to hunt in burrows, and some Doxiepoos inherit a love of digging and chasing small animals.
- Coat care varies: coats range from smooth to wiry to curly, and curlier coats need regular brushing and trims.
- A low-shedding coat. Some people with allergies find that easier to live with, but no breed is allergen-free.
- A designer breed, from crossing two purebred parents, so size, coat and temperament vary more than in a purebred.
Getting out with a Doxiepoo
Daily walks and some play keep them content. A mix of park time and easy trails suits them.
