499+ nicknames for dachshund boy and girl - beautiful names for puppies

An elongated body, short strong legs and a narrow muzzle - this is a dachshund. Despite the non-standard proportions, it looks very harmonious. This is a serious breed, which was bred in Germany specifically for burrow hunting of foxes, raccoon dogs and badgers.

Obeying a powerful instinct, the dachshund is ready to dig holes everywhere, even in the parquet. It is amenable to education and training, but at the same time it requires respect for oneself and one’s personal space.

At the same time, she will sleep next to you, snoring, demand something tasty, look with sad biblical eyes and will not take your personal space into account.

Frosya knows better how the hostess is comfortable

However, all these are trifles when it comes to love. Dachshunds are active, cheerful and agile dogs that know how to adapt to the rhythm of their owner’s life, loyal companions, fearless defenders, faithful playmates, patient and attentive listeners.

The nickname for them should be chosen especially carefully: dachshunds do not remember long, especially double names.

What not to call a dog

There are nicknames that dogs should not be called. Here are some tips:

the nickname should not be too long, it is better if it is short, so it will be easier to remember;
If you still like a long name, then we can recommend coming up with a simplified form. The first form can be indicated in documents, and at home the dog can be called the shorter one;
there is no need to call the dachshund by human names, these are completely inappropriate options;
the nickname must correspond to the appearance of the dog, for example, the nickname Fluff is absolutely not suitable for a smooth-haired dachshund or Snowball for a black dog;
according to zoologists, nicknames that begin with a consonant are better perceived by dogs;
The dachshund's name should not be in tune with the basic commands; problems may arise here both when remembering the nickname itself and during training;
You shouldn’t give your dachshund a nickname for your once-dead pet.

What color is your pet

The little hunter originally from Germany won many hearts with his amazing intelligence, responsiveness and boundless love for his owner. And how beautiful the dog’s fur is! Velvet-plush smooth-haired and luxurious long-haired, with a coat fluttering in the wind.

It would be ideal if the name of a cute dog matches the color of its coat. What is your pet?

Choosing a name for the black dachshund

You can give a dachshund a nickname based on its color.

Pure black coat color is rare in dachshunds. Usually the resin color is diluted with red patches, which makes the dog even prettier. And to choose an original name, let's find out what the word “black” sounds like in different languages. Choose the most sonorous nickname!

For boys:

Ireng (Java);
Black (England);
Zhudas (Lithuania);
Niro (Italy);
Noir (France);
Feket (Hungary);
Musti (Estonia);
Shem (Mari El);
Negro (Spain);
Ater (in Latin);
Schwarz (Germany);
Svarti (Norway);
Hitam (Indonesia);
Preto (Portugal);
Shahri (Israel, Hebrew);
Karay (Turkic peoples).

For girls:

Dachshund girls can also be called by the color of their coat.

Here you can use derivatives of boyish names, or find a sonorous translation from different languages of words such as “coal”, “night”, “darkness”:

Giza;
Sheni;
Alata;
Dusky;
Darka;
Scoomy;
Nikta;
Knight;
Layla;
Dorca;
Suama;
Afel;
Andera;
Erreta;
Tamsusi;
Finster.

This is interesting. In Russia, the purely black coat color of a dachshund is considered a defect, but American breeders completely allow this color.

Choosing a nickname for a dachshund of brown and red-black color

A small, tireless spring of coffee or elite brandy color will be suited to loud, bright nicknames. As bright as the chocolate-reddish color of a dog, shimmering in the sun with a velvety gloss. For example:

Brown color can also help you choose a nickname.

For boys:

Roy;
Vito;
Chris;
Brook;
Archie;
Robie;
Jam;
Pancho;
Bobby;
Harry;
Diego;
Hugo;
Ramon;
Maurice;
Barney;
Casper;
Muscat;
Martin.

Size matters

Representatives of the Dachshund breed have individuals that belong to three different groups. These are standard, mini and rabbit dachshund breeds. This feature allows you to concentrate on choosing a pet name. Moreover, for each category you can choose many nicknames. For example, a medium-sized pet can be called Max, Gross, Grand or Big. A mini puppy can be given the nicknames Little or Pokéd. The smallest representative of the breed can be called Vinnie or simply Vi.

The peculiar appearance of the dachshund, its behavior, reactions, “facial expression” become not only a source of good mood, but also a reason for jokes.

The dandy knows how to pose

Attention! Dachshunds love to eat, and when it comes to food, they demonstrate incredible gluttony. Their bowls are always thoroughly licked, and their eyes are full of anticipation for the next meal. Naturally, they are prone to excess weight, so you need to carefully monitor their diet.

Briefly about the main thing

The whole family can choose a name for your pet, because it’s really quite a fun thing.
It is important to take into account all the recommendations of experts and do not forget that the chosen name can affect the character of the animal.
In addition, the owner will have to pronounce the nickname more than once throughout the day, which means it should be easy to pronounce.
If you take into account all these nuances, then you can easily choose the nickname that best suits your pet.
