Meet Molly, a Long Haired Dachshund Puppy

Molly is a 12-week-old female long haired dachshund puppy with a chocolate and cream coat. She was born and raised in our home, not a kennel, so she’s used to people, noise, and everyday family life by the time she’s ready to go to her new home. If you’ve been looking for a Long Haired Dachshund Puppy that’s already comfortable around kids, other pets, and a normal household routine, she’s a solid fit.

Appearance

Molly has the flowing, feathered coat typical of the long haired dachshund variety, in a chocolate and cream pattern with cream markings on her chest, paws, and eyebrows. Her coat will fill in more as she matures, and like most long haired dachshunds, she’ll need a comb-through every week or two to keep it from matting, especially behind the ears.

Health and Genetics

Her parents were both health tested before breeding, including IVDD screening and eye exams, following guidelines similar to those laid out by the Dachshund Club of America. At 12 weeks old, Molly herself has already been vet checked, vaccinated, and microchipped, and she comes with a 10-year health guarantee along with her AKC paperwork.

Temperament

Personality-wise, this long haired dachshund puppy is on the sweeter, more laid-back side. She likes being close to people, doesn’t mind being picked up, and settles down easily once she’s had some playtime. If you’re looking for a lap dog with a bit of spunk, she fits that pretty well. Like most dachshunds, she’s alert and will let you know when someone’s at the door, but she’s not the high-strung type.

What Molly Comes With

Every long haired dachshund puppy from our program goes home with:

• AKC registration paperwork
• 10-year health guarantee
• A signed veterinary health certificate
• Microchip, already registered in her information
• Vaccination and deworming records
• A small starter kit with food, a blanket, and a toy that smells familiar to her

A Bit About the Long Haired Dachshund

The long haired variety is one of three coat types recognized within the breed, alongside smooth and wirehaired. The longer coat comes from a recessive gene, which is part of why long haired dachshund puppies are harder to find consistently than the smooth-coat variety. Beyond the coat, temperament and size are the same as any standard dachshund — small, loyal, and a little more stubborn than their size suggests.

Delivery Options

We handle delivery through either a flight nanny (someone flies with her in-cabin and hands her off to you) or ground transport in a climate-controlled vehicle, depending on your location. For general care guidance once she’s home, PetMD is a good resource, and the AKC has useful breed standard information if you’re curious about what to expect as she grows.

Common Questions

How big will she get?
Standard dachshunds typically reach 16 to 32 pounds full grown, depending on the parents’ size.

Does her coat need special grooming?
A weekly brush-out is usually enough, with more frequent combing during shedding season.

Is she good with kids?
She’s been raised around normal household activity and handles noise and handling well, but as with any small dog, we recommend supervising interactions with young children.
