    Google characteristics of a Double Dapple Dachshund and that should give you the information you need.

    Your vet may be able to tell you also.

    Does he have a lot of white on his body? Can you post pics? If he doesn’t have hearing or sight problems I wouldn’t worry too much!

  3. Comment by LadyBug:

    Just to add, I have looked at the pics on your profile and he doesn’t seem to be a DD to me. The light areas don’t seem to be white which they would be if he was a DD. Hearing and sight problems are normally caused if the white falls over the ears or head.

    He is a very beautiful boy! Click to see DD images http://images.google.co.za/images?q=double%20dapple&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi

    he does have a white chest and down on to his tummy but no where else .. im just concerned i want to breed him but not if hes a DD.. i wouldnt want to take any chances with that .. ya know .. i have ive looked at at least 50 different DD pics and thats why i was getting concerned .. there was a chocolate DD that looked a lot like him so im just trying to be responsible and not purposely breed possibly disabled pups .. thats all.. and yes i have a ton of pics of him but my with my camera when i download them on here the files are huge so i have to figure out how to make them smaller .. i do have some pics of him before i got him .. but no up to date ones .. unfortunately … hopefully soon.. and the one of him being held you can see a little bit of the white.. on his chest..

    and also thank you .. i too think hes beautiful.. and those eyes… they are to die for .. thats what got me .. and his color.. oh hes just so darn cute.. and snuggley …

    He is a beautiful lil guy. I’m not to big on diagnosing color types ect. but reading what Bette posted from google…I don’t see any double dapple from the info they had to offer. I wouldn’t worry about it.. Take a good look at those pics on that google site & I think you’ll agree.

    well i did and have been there before and if you go to the chocolate DD .. she looks just like mine but chocolate of course … i dont know where she has white on her but it they have to have white somewhere on them to be a DD righthttp://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.tvdoxieclub.com/CocoaPeb1.JPG&imgrefurl=http://www.tvdoxieclub.com/&usg=__eXTbFNz-Ted_vc3qRW9LGwIqops=&h=1920&w=2560&sz=1025&hl=en&start=15&um=1&tbnid=H6pJLPRbL0CMnM:&tbnh=113&tbnw=150&prev=/images%3Fq%3Ddouble%2Bdapple%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dsafari%26rls%3Den-us%26sa%3DX%26um%3D1

Honestly I don’t think Coco pebbles is a DD either. I think the only way to tell for sure is when bred to a solid, all the puppies come out as dapples… If your dog has no hearing / sight problems there s nothing really wrong with being a DD.
