Both parents have to be or carry pie to produce pie. If you have a mom that is supposedly DD and she has large amounts of white but is also dapple, if she produces a pie puppy when bred to another piebald she has to carry the pie gene and or be a dapple pie.

One dapple to produce a dapple, two pies to produce a piebald.

I suppose she could be a DD and carry pie. Should not have bred her in my opinion. If you do not know what the dog is or what is in her background you are asking for trouble.

Hi Tia! Sounds like the Japanese beetle. The love blooming trees such as apple trees, cherry trees etc. I used to go out and hit a wad of them with an apple and run like crazy! They do not sting, but like the June bug, they have funny feeling little legs and they can hurt if they fly into you.
Hit 'em with an apple, its fun! (ok, we get bored down south and when we can't go cow tippin', we terrorize the bugs) LOL

Unfortunately these operations are usually on a large piece of property in a wooded area out of the view of civilization. You would think that SOMEONE would know about it though. Such a shame. I bet a lot of these folks have nice little websites and claim that their beloved pets live indoors too!

Our first dachsie back in the 1970's had an overshot top jaw, he had no problems eating and the only problem was he lost his teeth early and was toothless when he died age 13yrs, BTW he only had one testicle too.

Could she have some fungal skin infection? I am not familiar with the breed so it may be a common thing in that breed, if it's that bad then you need to speak to the vet or a groomer if the vet hasn't got a clue as to the cause.

Another thought has she been scooting her bum outside trying to empty her anal glands, I understand they can be quite whiffy if there is a problem with them.

dachshund - doxie health & care forum:: when to spay or neuter your puppy
I agree with a lot of your points Rhona. Did not mean it in a negative way. I just know what my experiences with neutered timid dogs has been and I have seen the opposite affect. Most everything that I post on, I post from experiences that I have experienced first hand with my dogs or with friends. Vast majority of timid males neutered seem to do better. It is my opinion that the "timid" in dachshunds is most times an anxiety issue that corrects itself after the hormones are removed.

I do not believe in blanket altering either. It most definitely can have negative affects in some. Thanks for your reply!
