Species group: Mixed Breeds
The basics:
RightPet does not advocate the intentional cross-breeding of purebred dogs. But the reality is that most dogs available for adoption at shelters and rescues are mixed breeds. We think it might be helpful to hear from owners of these mixes to see what traits can be found in these dogs who are desperately needing homes.
The pairing between an Australian Terrier and a Dachshund isn't all that common, but you may occasionally encounter this mix in a rescue.
Appearance / health:
All mixed-breed dogs can vary in appearance, and it's a roll of the dice whether your mix resembles the Australian Terrier or the Dachshund parent more. The coat can be especially variable.
Behavior / temperament:
While it's impossible to predict the exact personality of a mixed-breed, you're getting a double dose of energy and spunk from the Australian Terrier / Dachshund Mix. Some individuals may not be able to resist chasing small household pets or other animals.
