Find out as much information about your dachshund as possible. Just because your dachshund is a certain color does not mean her puppies will be. She may carry recessive genes, which you can determine if you know the color of her parents and litter mates. You also have to find this information out about the male dog that you plan to breed her with.
Decide what color or pattern you want the dachshund pups to be. Dachshunds come in six solid colors, different variations of bi-colored and tri-colored patterns, a Piebald pattern, and a dappling where the puppy has lighter spot over a darker color.
Research whether the color you want is a dominant or recessive gene. For instance, if you want puppies to be bi-colored or have a Piebald pattern, you would need to make sure both parents have the gene, because they are recessive genes.
Breed two dachshunds together that have the appropriate genes to get the colors you want. Solid-color dachshunds usually come from solid-color parents, but recessive genes can throw a different-colored puppy in your litter.
How to Breed Dachshunds for Color
Dachshunds are small dogs that are also referred to as "wiener dogs" because of their long bodies and short legs. Dachshunds come in an endless array of colors and patterns. Some dachshunds are solid-colored, but there are also dachshunds that are bi-colored or tri-colored. Other patterns of dachshunds can also appear. It can be confusing to breed dachshunds for specific colors, because you need to be aware of both the dominant and recessive genes in your dogs.
