The shelter chose Heidi for her name on the ID card. Apparently she's only had that name for the past week. I thought of Doxie on the way home, but that might not be creative enough since that's the abbreviation for the breed. Heidi seems pretty good, but I think it's overused for female dachshunds. After some research, I found these nice names: Dottie, Gracie, Emma, Gertie, Lotte, Sofie. (As you can see, I prefer shorter easier names.) Which one gets your vote or do you have other ideas for a name? Thanks.

How about going for a nice German name. I think dachsunds are from Germany. I like Lili the best. Lena, leah

We just put a 4 year old Mini D down this past Thanksgiving...her name was Gracie. Her "sister" is our 6 year old Mini..Sammy. Both have been great dogs.
When we got Sammy, we named her immediately. For Gracie, I think it took us a day or two before we settled on her name. Just give yourself time. Nothing says you have to have a name immediately for your pet.

Let her settle in for a few days before deciding on a name. I am sure as soon as her personality starts to shine out, the perfect name will come to you.

I like Gertie... I always go for the names that are a little more unusual : )

Call her LUCKY most people don't adopt adult dogs. A friend of mine named her dog NEDA short for need a home. Good Luck and God Bless!

Hey, I have an awesome and unique name. I think for maybe a black or brown dachshund could be named Doxie (AWESOME) or Embyr (Em-ber)
