besides their long legs, the Dachshund breed is my favorite. I love especially Dachshund Colors. This is not the “I love them because of their cuteness” kinda interest. let me tell you why.
I recently wrote a blog post about interesting Dachshund facts. I also pointed out their poor track record during world war I. The American Kennel Club (AKC), rebranded them to try and redeem their popularity. Unfortunately, it didn’t work.
Their natural appeal to pet lovers and their lots of colors were a huge part of their success.
Dachshund shades and Colors
The dachshund breed uses a large range of appearances by combining different hair types, colors and patterns. Some colors and patterns can pose health risks. Hadi daha yakından bakalım.
Their different colors and all combinations are as a result not only visually pleasing, but also historical for the breed’s current status.
Continue reading to find out a lot more about these colors. You can also find all their color patterns, which I found fascinating.
Standard Dachshund Patterns and colors based on different Kennel Clubs
There are 15 Dachshund color options. These include black and cream and black and tan.
These shades come in six different patterns: brindle (dapple), sable (piebald), brindle-dapple (brindle), sable (brindle dapple), brindle dapple), sable (brindle dapple), brindle dapple), dapple sable (brindle dapple), and double dapple.
This section will go over which colors are recognized by the American Kennel Club, Canadian Kennel Club, United Kennel Club and Federation Cynologique Internationale.
Please note that color names can vary but still refer to the same shade.
Coat types of Dachshund
1. Smooth
The smooth-coated coat is the most popular among Dachshunds. Smooth coats must be shiny and sleek. There is still some fur density, which must feel soft and plush.
2. long Haired
Long-coated Dachshunds are characterized by long, flowing hair. Their coats are normally straight and slightly wavy with feathering running from their ears to their legs. This coat needs a lot more maintenance each day to keep it tangle-free and neat.
3. wire Haired
The wire coat is an older addition to the long- and smooth-coat varieties. Wire-haired dachshunds were created to be a lot more resilient to extreme conditions.
Their coat is rough and bristly. According to breed standard, they must be kept short all over the body and have a distinct eyebrow and beard.
Wire-haired breeds are hand-scraped to preserve colors and texture.
Dachshund Patterns and Colors
AKC divides dachshund color into three categories
Tek renk
Two-Colored
Patterns
Two or a lot more colors can be grouped together in patterns. However, they have distinct attributes that allow us to additionally classify their appearance.
We would classify a dachshund as chocolate and Tan if it is mostly chocolate with Tan markings around the muzzle, eyebrows and legs.
If their coat is spotted, patched or striped with the same colors, we call it a chocolate Piebald Dapple, chocolate Piebald, or Brindle.
Identify the self-color first, then the pattern or secondary colors.

You also have the option of Diluted Red. This color is often called Fawn, Isabella or misidentified as Chocolate-Red.
We will go over the possible side effects of dilution on health. See Diluted Colours.

Diluted Colors
Dilution is when an adult or litter pet dog is a carrier of a dilution gene ( Colour Dilution Alopecia or CDA), but it doesn’t affect all dogs.
Color Dilution is a genetic defect which affects the pigment and creates unusual colors in the hair shaft. This is normally used to produce:
Isabella / Fawn (Diluted Red)
Blue / Grey (Diluted Chocolate)
Blue and Tan
Some dogs may develop color Alopecia, which can cause permanent hair loss and hair follicle damage below the skin.
Although puppies will have a healthy coat and appear happy, dogs with hair problems will experience hair loss between 6 and 3 years. adult dogs that are unable to grow new hair may look patchy or completely bald.
Color Alopecia may also be present in adult dogs, but they do not have a diluted coat.
Patterns
Although pattern coats can come in any color combination, the special markings on them help us classify their coat type.

Quick Quiz about Dachshunds
Which Dachshund might Be considered Merle or Dapple?
A dachshund with a tiniest bit of red on its body.
An adult puppy who was born with merle patches will grow up to be a solid-colored dog.
A pet dog with a tiny patch of merle in one ear.
Answer: All three are possible merle carriers
Dapple can be partially or fully evident and may only appear as a patch of hair with a discolored color. They can also appear solid colored but may have dapple parents.
In both cases, the pet dog will be considered dapple.
This distinction is crucial because you must never breed two Merle carriers. Otherwise, you will get what is known as a double Dapple (or double Melle).
Hidden Dapple
This pet dog is a dapple, whether you believe it or not. This puppy is a carrier because his parents were dapples. You must also pay attention to the tiny (but barely visible) black hair on his ear.
Double Dapple (Double Merle)
Two merle (dapple-carrier) carriers can breed their litter to become ” doubledapple”. They are a lot more at risk for health problems. often being born deaf, blind, or both.
It is as a result illegal to breed two merle gene carriers and it is considered inhumane.
Merle-bearing Merle must not be crossed to solid colored mates who aren’t known for being Merle.
Double Dapples are mostly white or very light in colour, with some merle patches. Blue eyes can be either one or both. The paw pads and nose may have a mottled, brownish or pink pigmentation.
Yanlış kimlik tespiti
Double dapple is not a common dachshund color. This could be due to the piebald pattern, dilution gene or very light cream colors.
Double dapples might also have other signs such as blue eye, pink nose or pink eye rims.
Brindle
Brindle can be described as “tiger stripes” by lots of breeds and animals because it has similar markings, red-shaded stripes and black stripes.
Dachshunds come in two colors: Black and Tan Brindle or Red Brindle. The former is a lot more visible visually.
Wildboar must not be confused for brindle. Wildboar is similar in shading, but it is much lighter than Brindle. Brindle has a lot more stripes.
Although Brindle isn’t officially recognized by AKC, it’s still loved by pet owners.
Sable
The hair that is sable is black-tipped, while the rest of the hair turns into red (mostly). You can see lighter hair closer towards the skin if you take a look at the undercoat.
Shaders are not to be confused with shading. Bu, siyah kılların kırmızı veya krem kıllarla karıştığı zamandır.
Sable çok renkli tek kıllardır. Gölgeleme bir katta çoklu düz renk kıllarıdır.
Sable, tel veya pürüzsüz saçlı saç stillerinde meydana gelen bir durum değildir.
Piebald
Piebald veya tanımı ile pied, uyumsuz veya farklı renklerden yapılmıştır.
Hayvanlarda bir sorun olarak kabul edilebilecek beyaz lekelerin varlığı veya yokluğu. Bu, karanlık lekelerin beyaz üzerine yerleştirildiğini varsayan sahipler tarafından yapılan yaygın bir hatadır. Bunun nedeni, beyazın çok daha yaygın olmasıdır.
Piebald, birçok hayvan ve sürüngende meydana gelen bir gende ortak ama zararsız bir mutasyonun bir sonucudur. Herhangi bir renk veya desenle karıştırılabilen dachshunds için çok renkli, tanımlanmış bir kat ile sonuçlanır.
Tek renkli Dachshunds: Açıklama ve resimler
Tek renkli Dachshunds tam olarak isimlerinin önerdiğini yapar. Düz renkleri zengin, kadifemsi ve herhangi bir işaretleri yok.
Bunlar altı versiyon:
Krem Dachshund
Kremler tüm Dachshund renklerinin en sofistike olanıdır. Tavşan tavşanlarına benzediğinden, kuzenlerinden daha yumuşak görünürler.
Ceket gölgeleri istediğiniz kadar hafif veya karanlık olabilir veya biraz daha koyu veya krema olabilir. İki tip var:
Clear Cream Dachshund
Clear Cream Dachshunds herhangi bir siyah renk tonundan ücretsizdir. Fotoğraf, tüm vücutlarının ve yüzlerinin hiçbir şekilde renkli olmadığını gösteriyor. Bunun nedeni “Chinchilla” seyreltme genidir.
Gölgeli Krem Dachshund
Baskın EE genetik oldukları için, gölgeli krem dachshunds’ın paltolarında siyah aksanları olacaktır. Bu, İngilizce krem Dachshunds’ta çok yaygındır ve zamanla kaybolur.
Kırmızı Dachshund
Kırmızı Dachshunds paslı kahverengi olma eğilimindedir. Baskın kırmızı genin bir kopyası tarafından oluşturulabilecekleri için oldukça yaygındırlar. Ayrıca siyah tırnakları ve burunları var.
Kremlere benzerler ve iki çeşit gelirler:
Katı kırmızı dachshund
Bu kırmızı Dachshund’un ceketinde siyah veya beyaz işaretleri yoktur.
Gölgeli kırmızı dachshund
Gölgeli kırmızı dachshunds kulakları, kuyrukları ve sırtlarında siyah bir tabaka ile kaplıdır. Bunlar, tamamen farklı oldukları için kargalar için karıştırılmamalıdır.
Buğday Dachshund
Çok nadirdirler. Buğdayla aynı renk olan açık kahverengi ve beyazımsı renklerin bir karışımıdır.
Bu ceket rengi başlangıçta sadece sırımla saçlı dachshunds için mevcuttu. Artık pürüzsüz saçlı veya farklı palto türleri ile uzun saç saçlı buğday kıyafetlerini görebilirsiniz.
Siyah Dachshund
AKC, katı siyah dachshunds’u standart olmayan olarak etiketler çünkü bulmak zordur. Genellikle çöplerde, özellikle köpek değirmenlerinde üretilenlerde bulunurlar.
Bronzlaşmaları olmalı. Bununla birlikte, DNA testi yoluyla tanımlanması gereken resesif genetik tarafından bastırılır.
Çikolata Dachshund
Vücutlarında ve yüzlerinde krema veya bronzluk izleri olmayan çikolatalı dachshunds, tıpkı katı siyah dachshunds gibi bulmak zordur. Birinin örnek fotoğrafını çekemediğimi düşünürsek, bunu zaten bildiğinizden eminim.
Bu renk varyasyonu standart AKC değildir, bu nedenle konformasyon şovuna katılmalarına izin verilmez.
Kafa Dachshund
Fawn, Isabella ismiyle de bilinir. Her türlü dachshund kılında bulunabilir. Bu normalde soluk bir çikolata tonu olarak görülür. Bununla birlikte, bazı yavrular daha açık sarımsı görünebilir.
İki renkli Dachshunds Açıklama ve Resimler
Özellikle iki kat rengi olduğunda, Dachshund cazibesi için düşmeye direnmek zordur. İşte en iyi bilinen iki renkli Dachshund türleri:
Yaban domuzu Dachshund
Bu ceket rengi duyduğumda hemen beni ilgilendirdi. Kırmızı, siyah ve çikolata gibi temel terimleri duymaya alışkınım. Ama yaban domuzu değil.
Vahşi domuzun rengi, benzerliklerin oldukça açık olduğunu göz önünde bulundurarak mantıklı olan hayvan isimlerinden sonra adlandırılmıştır. Bu ceket, Dachshund’ların uzaktan siyah ve bronzlaşmasını sağlar. Ama yakın, onları öne çıkaran özel Goldish olaylarını göreceksiniz.
Bir çok daha fazla şey. Bunlar sadece tel saçlı dachshundlarda bulunur.
