Shepherdgirl ยง questioned:
I forgot to question how much should I charge for my awesome new puppies? And I really need a name for this new breed.
For all of you telling me not to breed stop it becasue I am only going to breed her one time ……. after another and then I will keep a female pup to start over with. I am not in this for the money I like my dogs and I just want others to have an affordable puppy.
Sit Stay Fetch, Excellent Dog!

Breeding small female dogs with large male dogs is perilous. In more ways than one. Just common sense.

OOhhhhhhhhhh, I want one! I was thinking of breeding my Shih Tzu with a Jack Russell. That way people here will start to know Jack Shih, since obviously most of them don’t!!!!

LOL.
The whole “designer mutt” thing would be amusing if it wasn’t so dang sad, wouldn’t it?
Just watch out for dysplastic weenies. ; )
Edit: For those of you freaking out….look up the word “sarcasm”. I believe the original poster was making a point of how ridiclous this whole “designer mutt” fad is….

That cross is knid of cruel to your dachshund. but if it were the other way around it might be better. And also dont breed dogs fdor money. You shoudl truely care about an individual breed and want to make it better. And puppies shouldnt leave their mother until 8 weeks. And the puppies have to have their first shots at around 8 weeks before they can go into a home anyways.

If you’re NOT kidding, then you are one of the the most stupid people around.
mxdup277 Says: August 1st, 2008 at 3:24 pm
don’t breed them. if you properly care for the mom during her pregnancy which considering your doxie will probably have to have a c-section (the pups will probably be too huge to birth naturally) will negate any profits you would make selling the pups.
there are too many unwanted animals in the world to breed them for money…
until there are none, adopt one.
PLEASE SPAY /NEUTER YOUR PET

You don’t.
Kristin H Says: August 5th, 2008 at 6:48 pm
This is incorrect in many ways (trying to cash in) but if you really want to do this (please reckon of the dogs) then I would tell you to have a Female German Shepherd and a Male Dachshund. Reckon about the poor mama that has to birth them!
chihuahua mama Says: August 7th, 2008 at 6:49 am
As I know you are not irresponsible like that I will not jump on you for the question..lol Some people would really be dumb enough to try it tho. I wish people would wise up aboput the “designer breed” fad. Everyone thinks they can breed these mutts and make a million dollars.
Goldengal Says: August 9th, 2008 at 4:18 pm
Oh darn I had this whole thing pictured in my mind with the Dachshund on a small platform trying to get the job done but you made the Doxi a girl. LOL
Absurd isn’t it! If people need extra money why dont they just get a job. I hear McDonald’s will hire anyone or even WalMart!
Have a excellent one.
nekkiddoglady Says: August 10th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
why would you want to make more mutts? You they are cute, but, thousands of cute mutts die every day in shelters because of lack of homes.
A small dog cannot give birth naturally to large breed puppies, a cecarian would be necessary, and expensive. Do you have at least $1,000 + laying around to cover that?
Please spay and neuter your pets.
BTW, 5 weeks is way too early. In some states its illegal to sell a puppy younger than 8 weeks.
tina in fla Says: August 11th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
Visit a shelter and see all the dogs who need homes—-and will be euthanized due to lack of space & people like you, interested in “quick cash”.
In case you are serious—the mother dog would not survive the pregnancy. And it is illegal to take pups away from the mom prior to 8 weeks, 10 is preferable.
I reckon you should surrender both of your dogs to rescue groups, because it’s EVIDENT you don’t really care about their health & well being.
glamourl0ve Says: August 14th, 2008 at 6:17 pm
You can call it a Dachman :]
LOLOLOL
There are too many questions like that on here that now I KNOW why I see so many dogs and cats in shelters.
I agree with Golden — have people ever heard of the word JOB?!
Thanks for giving me a laught tonight, I needed it.
Is it just me? Or has there been more ‘how do I breed my dog’ and ‘where can I get a teacup ___?” questions than usual?
I really need a break from Yahoo Answers LOL
Thanks again for the laugh :]

Not a excellent thought!
duececoupe Says: August 18th, 2008 at 6:48 pm
If your German Shepherd were female it might be safe enough to mix these breeds but vice-versa, No. It could very well kill your Doxie. This would not make excellent looking pups and they would probably be hard to find homes for. There are to many homeless animals without us making more on purpose. If you want to do something worthwhile for your animals, get them both fixed.
Sara W Says: August 19th, 2008 at 10:25 pm
you can’t be serious! thats ridonkulous!
Mr. Z Says: August 20th, 2008 at 8:19 am
it should be called a shepshund
pitbullmommie122106 Says: August 20th, 2008 at 10:32 am
I dont know about all of that.. lol! I dont reckon that would work out well for your doxie at all! It would be better (safer) if the female was the larger breed seeing as how she as to carry the pups.. you know??
Oh and 5 weeks is way, way too young to take puppies from their mother. The pups NEED to be atleast 8 weeks ancient before you can send them to their new homes.
Excellent luck! : )
Scout Says: August 23rd, 2008 at 3:22 pm
UHH.. duh you don’t. Small breeds don’t breed with large breeds, it can hurt the doxie and the puppies will have medical complecations.
joy b Says: August 24th, 2008 at 3:27 am
first thing off the bat….yes it would certainly hurt your dachshund to have the shepherd puppies, might even kill her. i know you want to get in on the quick cash everyone is making on designer dogs….but make them size compatible…breed a small dog with another small one…medium sized with another medium sized etc….not large dog with a small dog…your putting pet lives at stake when you experiment with sizes that dont work.
Lilly Says: August 26th, 2008 at 8:28 am
That is a excellent joke thats about it, and you know it.
robin f Says: August 28th, 2008 at 11:54 pm
Well obviously you know nothing about breeding dogs first off. If you breed them your dachshund for sure would end up needing surgery or die from the strain on her organs from the size of the puppies that it would make. Next off yes 5 weeks is too early to find them homes. No earlier then 8 weeks is what is the law. If you want to make a quick buck why not breed yourself to your german Shepard. You shouldn’t be owning a dog much less thinking about breeding one.
H.O.T. Dog Says: August 29th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
First off.. the designer dogs have been bred in a program so that finally a stabilized look has been obtained for the ***new designer*** breed/ or breeds – it is not exactly a hit or miss action going on here..
A so called back yard breeding which you want to do is just that ***a back yard breeding***.
Next, What do you reckon will happen to your 11 lb Dachshund if it tries to pass a puppy the size of a shepherd puppy… Do you mind blood & guss???
Lastly, who will you get to give you any huge bucks for these puppies…
take a excellent luck at it.. lots of vet bills plus probably a C-section birth if you don’t want to kill your dachshund but it will probably die anyway… Poor Baby= I feel so sorry for her.
I usually sign off saying Excellent Luck but NOT in your case.

Hi! I don’t know the “how”, but I know it can be done. When I was 6 we thought we were going to get a dachshund puppy. We were all surprised when the puppies appeared dachshund size, but looking just like a German shepherd. “Luv” (OK, it was the 60s) looked similar to a long-haired dachshund, but her nose and tail more closely resembled the shepherd. She was one of the best pets I’ve had and lived to be 15.
Excellent luck!

I am going to assume that you are really kidding here.
I would go with a German Dachsherd as the name of the mixed breed. How designer is that??!!
kd5bel Says: September 2nd, 2008 at 1:31 pm
Don’t do it! I had a mid-sized dog growing up who was impregnanted by a Lab, she could not give birth the puppies were too huge and after the 4th was born her uterus ripped and she bled to death!
forget designer breeds, if you wish to breed dogs get 2 that are compatible in size and weight.
bassetnut Says: September 3rd, 2008 at 2:32 am
Is your Dachsund a Smooth, Longhair or Wirehair?
I bet this would be a fantastic breed for rounding up sheep that have gone down badger holes!

lol…thanks shepherdgirl for the sarcasm! maybe I should try and breed my shepherd with my cat and get a kittyshep….the guard cats to end all guard cats….I could start a new species! and become a millionaire! LOLOLOL

And to reckon all these years I’ve been working my tail off when I could’ve just stayed home and made money selling my two favorite breeds rolled into one! LOL!
Don’t forget to point out to all potential new owners the advantages of having a more powerful, protective dog with the”selective hearing” known to dachshunds. Why not go the whole route and make sure they enroll them in Schutzhund training? You could have a tracking dog who will track every animal in the forest and roll in every spot of bird poop before he gets to his prize. And then there’s the protection phase. Anything that is part dachshund will certainly receive the ultimate back and neck workout hanging in mid air swinging around from a padded sleeve.
By the way, no offense to any well-trained dachshunds with their awesome noses who are really trained to track or to anyone in Schutzhund, which is the ultimate sport. As a long time owner and admirer of both breeds, each with their own unique capabilities, your point was loud and clear. Excellent one!
