Dachshund (Rabbit Long Haired) Old Dogs for Sale, TAS

The Rabbit (“kaninchen”) sized dachshund is newly recognised by the ANKC in 2020/2021, the smallest variety of dachshund in the FCI show rings. Rabbit dachshunds are defined by their chest circumference, not by weight. Females have a chest span up to 30cm, males up to 32cm. Because their chests are smaller than miniatures, they tend to be smaller overall and thus weigh less. Whilst they are small, they are dachshunds - hunters, diggers, with big attitudes and will. Rabbit dachshunds must contain adequate muscle, strength and correct structure to not only perform their hunting function, but to ensure the safety of their joints and back. Like any dachshund, if poorly bred, they are at a significantly increased risk of back injury (IVDD) and general joint pathologies. Our adults are health tested, including DNA testing for PRA, and X-ray back and hip scored (looking at the potential inherited risk of IVDD and hip dysplasia), and tested for patella subluxation. Our lines are imported from Japan and in 2023 from Europe. I cannot thank enough the beautiful specialist rabbit breeders abroad who have supported and mentored me in this new breed endeavour, and we hope to do you proud in Australia. We hope to breed a combination of these beautiful lines to produce healthy, conformationally correct offspring.
