Louis my Daschund is on a distinguished road
What breed would make a good companion for a Daschund?

Hi. I am new to this forum. We have a 11 month old male Dachshund (Miniature Smooth-Haired) Lovely chap. We are lucky as we work from home, but we really think he needs another small dog that he can play with. Any ideas what breed to get that he will get on with?

I think little dogs get along quite well with big dogs too suppose its up to the little chap. lol what about a westie or i have a husky and it gets along with the siamese cats.

Thanks for the reply. Forgot to say, the reason we want another small dog is we have a tiny house so it would'nt be fair for a big dog.

You need something with a lot of go, to fit in with your Daschund, how about some kind of terrier, maybe a yorkie

Why not another daschund?
They suit eachtoher then

Nothing that is too high on energy like a terrier because some become excited and start harrassing for fun all the time. Maybve something like a papillon on a pug

Thanks for all your replys. Would love another Daschund. Was thinking of maybe a rescue dog. Just wanted to explore every avenue for any advice.

Re: What breed would make a good companion for a Daschund?

On a more serious note from my last comment though, I dont think it matters wat breed/size of dog you choose.. just as long as you chose one with the same personality as your dog. my dad had a Huge lurcher and a border terrier and they were brill together.. both relaxed in the house and used all their energy chasing in circles (ok well with the border yipping cos he couldnt keep up! lol)
and my friend has a Newfie and a Pom who love eachother
