The Doxie Pin is the offspring of a Dachshund and a Miniature Pinscher. And to no one’s surprise, as the family tree of this designer dog truly is remarkable. However, while it might not have a well-documented history, this breed is rapidly growing in popularity. The best guess is that the breed was created sometime in the last two decades, in the United States, not unlike the majority of hybrids. The Doxie Pin is one of the more recent mixes and there’s not much known about where these crossbreeds came from. Unfortunately, not many of these designer dogs have a clear origin story like the Labradoodle has. Even now, more and more hybrid breeds pop up each day, with the possibilities for combinations practically endless. What was initially a litter of mixed breed puppies that didn’t catch anyone’s attention became the world’s first designer dog breed and set off a trend that is going strong decades after. The idea was sparked- to combine two purebreds, the Poodle and the Lab. A breeder was asked to produce a hypoallergenic dog that would be able to serve as a seeing eye dog for his blind client. In the 1980s, the Labradoodle took the world of dog breeding by the storm. The Doxie Pin is friendly, loyal, cuddly, and playful. In fact, you could say that this designer dog and his big heart could have a place in any family, regardless of its shape and size! But, if you want to make sure that the Dachshund-Min Pin mix is really the right pet for you, read on. The Doxie Pin is a perfect pet for singles and seniors, as well as families with children. With timely socialization and training, though, this designer dog won’t become fearful and meek their lovely nature will be out for the world to see, and not just reserved for their closest family members. They are sensitive souls and it’s not hard to see it. Some might say that the Doxie Pin has an unusual combination of traits: they are friendly, sweet, and playful, and yet, they can be a bit shy and timid, too. The unique combination of genetics, in this case, serves to “mellow” out the often nervous behavior seen in Pinschers and to minimize health issues that the Doxie’s iconic wiener body is prone to. Not unlike his mom and dad, this hybrid will be of compact stature, short hair, and adorable looks. The Doxie Pin is a mixed breed dog whose parents are Miniature Pinscher and the Dachshund- so you can expect a few of both breed’s traits to be present in this crossbreed. These small designer dogs are affectionate, devoted companions that will secure a spot in your heart as soon as you meet them.
