This premium stuffed animal is full of character and is a treasured gift made to withstand the test of time.
The Dachshund was bred to be the perfect badger, rabbit and fox catcher. Their long bodies and short, stubby legs meant that they could effortlessly crawl into burrows. Now they’re used as show dogs and make the perfect family pets. They’re very loyal dogs who love cuddling up to you after a long day of playing. Because of their long bodies, they’ve got a surprisingly loud bark. And they LOVE to use it! They’re very brave dogs so if they ever think you need help, you’ll hear their bark before you’ll see them running to the rescue.
Dachshunds were also bred for hunting prairie dogs and tracking deer.

The oldest Dachshund to live was Scolly, who was 20 years and 33 days old.
It’s all in the detail
Look closely at Living Nature animals and you won’t be able to believe how close they are to the real thing. Our artists add shading and texture by air-brushing each animal by hand, for a realistic finish down to the very last detail.
Soft and gentle or cool and piercing, every animal’s eyes are different. That’s why we don’t use the same eyes for all our soft toys – we match them perfectly to the animal. Just look at the baby blues on our Frenchie puppies if you don’t believe us!
Trimmed to perfection
Our animal artists trim our toys’ fur by hand to get the finished product as close as possible to the real thing. From short fuzzy fur on noses to just the perfect amount of fluff on a tail, we make sure every friend is looking its best for when it comes home to you.
Two good to be true
Look closely at an animal’s fur and you’ll see more than one colour in each strand. We use two-tone fur fabric on lots of our animals to make them extra realistic, even adding prints to add depth and texture to your new friend’s coat.
