Dapple Dachshund puppies for sale in Québec

Breed history

The Dachshund originated in Germany over 300 years ago, bred specifically for hunting badgers, foxes, and other burrowing animals. Their elongated body, short legs, and powerful chest allowed them to enter tunnels and work independently. The dapple (merle) pattern developed later through selective breeding and became popular for its striking appearance. Today, Dapple Dachshunds are cherished both as companions and for their rich working heritage.
