However (and this is a big “however”), Doxiepoos bark. Things You Should Know About the Doxiepooĭoxiepoos make good apartment dogs because of their size and the fact that they only need a moderate amount of exercise. They make good watchdogs and, indeed, can be a bit too territorial, so visitors should be introduced slowly to this determined little dog. Their antics are uplifting to watch, especially since they remain serious. They are good with children as long as the children treat the Doxie with respect.ĭoxiepoos have a delightful sense of humor, though they don’t know it. They also have a tendency to chase smaller animals, especially cats. Not so much so with other dogs, however, so Doxiepoos should be introduced slowly to unknown canines.
He bonds strongly with his owner but most are wary of strangers. The Doxiepoo is, above all, an adaptable and affectionate hybrid dog. We are also huge fans of adoption here at Dogster, and urge you to look at local shelters and rescues for lovable pups that might just - gasp - be the offspring of a Dachshund and a Toy Poodle. If you see “buy it now” PayPal buttons on websites hawking these dogs, this is a huge red flag and we implore you to run screaming in the opposite direction.
As with any breed, please DO YOUR HOMEWORK and resist the urge to impulse buy.
This mutt will sit nobly and patiently by your side until some challenge comes his way, then he’s off for battle, so you’d better have a good hold on the leash.ĭOGSTER WARNING: If you are in the market for a Doxiepoo, please be forewarned that this is not an established breed, and the chances that you will encounter backyard breeders or puppy millers trying to capitalize on this fancy mutt’s popularity are pretty high. Yes, the Doxiepoo, a cross between the Dachshund and the Toy Poodle, or the Miniature Dachshund and the Toy Poodle, or the Miniature Dachshund and the Teacup Poodle (this is one mixed-up dog), is all of this and more. The Doxie has moxie and the Poodle has oodles of class, so what do you get when you cross the two breeds? A quiet, obedient dog that is also prone to episodes of energetic outbursts (in other words, trying to teach the cat a lesson).
