Thank you for all the info! I guess I will not be breeding my pup. Although, for the record, all of his cute facial experissions are still visible on his black face.

Here is what can be said about that......
3. A black and tan dachshund is shiny black with rich reddish-brown markings on his face, chest, all four feet, and under the tail. Noses and nails are black, and the eyes should be dark brown. Tan markings which are very predominant and/or pale red in color are not desirable, nor are smudgy markings with a lot of black in them which makes the dog appear solid black from a distance.
Black and cream dachshunds are identical to black and tan dachshunds except that the markings on the face, chest, feet, and under the tail are pure, pale cream instead of reddish-brown or tan.
It is not true that breeding black and tan dogs with correct reddish-tan markings together over many generations will result in the loss of the tan markings. When dogs with smudgy tan markings are bred together over many generations, it might be possible to reduce the tan markings to the point where the resulting offspring appear to be solid black. Genetically, these are not true solid black dogs, although they are often advertised as such by unscrupulous breeders. These dogs are not desirable for show or breeding purposes because they will muddy any other colors they are bred to, and from an aesthetic point of view, the typical lively dachshund expression does not show up in a solid black face.
Occasionally, true solid black dachshunds (with no tan markings) do show up in the litters of commercial puppy producers and backyard breeders. These may or may not be purebred dachshunds but they are not "rare" or "exotic" at all - simply incorrect according to the AKC standard.

According to the AKC's website, one-colored dachshunds are acceptable. I have an all "red" dachshund. As a general rule, most people do not have a considerable amount of experience with animals, especially not pure bred animals, so any quadruped that they meet, they meet with in amazement. =0) Ignore them.

I don't see why you shoud not breed your dog if you wish. All black dachshunds are not that common and if you were local, I would want to breed my CKC registered wildboar female (colored like a German Shepherd) and my CKC registered black and tan female to him, providing he has good conformation. I've seen ONE black dachshund in my life, and he was awesome. I bet Maui is just as handsome.
