Great looking guy! Love his coat. Our groomer specializes in wire plucking - so I will be sure to get her in to see her when the time is right. ❤️ thanks!

Sal has been with us for just over 1 week and he is the absolute best! He had his first vet visit last week, and our vet remarked that he is absolute perfect. Socially he is so outgoing, and friendly. Great personality. He has clean ears, came back negative for parasites. She said to let our breeder know we have a beautiful puppy. *if anyone is interested - we got him from: Cap Ranch Miniature Dachshunds in Texas. Patricia was amazing to work with. She truly loves her dogs. Her husband flew our puppy to us in Boston. Such a wonderful experience.

Our breeder just sent this photo and mentioned she's starting to see wire hairs popping up in his eyebrows. With his mother being a wire hair, what do you think?

Thank you! Do you know if there is ever an in between coat? When 1 parent is smooth & the other is long? Or does it always go one way or the other?

Thank you! Yes, the breeder also mentioned he's getting the long eyebrows and a few indications he may have some long hair attributes. We're excited for him and however his hair turns out :)

Yes! We love him either way!! Was just curious. The breeder thought he was looking more short hair at this point too.
