My Mothers favorite even if it's the only stuffed animal she has. It reminds her of a passed Pet Dachshund. Mothers visitors are taken back by the realism, on their first meeting they don't realize it's a toy until it hasn't moved for a few moments.

When I got this, I wasn't expecting what I got. When I got the box, it was very small, and I suddenly thought the dog would be small too. But when I took the dog out, I was very pleased! The whole plush "unfolded" and it looked the same as the dog in the picture! I was impressed with how realistic the dog looked, and it would make an awesome gift for anyone.

I got this as a gift. The quality of fur is very nice, and the dog is absolutely adorable (which can't be said for half of dachshund stuffed animals out there, in my opinion). The body is firm enough to stand on its own. My only complaint is that the fur "grows" on this stuffed animal in the wrong direction - so when you pet the dog, you have to go from back to front.

For Christmas my husband's little sister said she wanted a stuffed dachshund, so I did an online search and found a good number of options. But after looking at the close-up photos, this one had the most realistic face. We got the black/tan version, and it looks amazing! It's pretty big, and seems to be good quality. She was very excited when she opened it and it was just what she wanted. Everyone was surprised we found such a good looking stuffed toy, let alone a dachshund!

I've owned dachshunds all my life and also have a collection of other Douglas Cuddle Toy dog breeds. Though their dachshund is the most representative stuffed animal of the breed that's on the market right now, there are some parts of it that bother me...especially when comparing the dachshund to how closely the other dog breeds compare to their real life counter parts. The stuffed dachsund's chest juts out awkwardly and travels down to the floor in a massive curve that looks quite unfortunate. The picture online of Spats doesn't portray how exaggerated it actually is. Dachshunds are not THAT funnily propotioned. The snout is fatter in proportion to the rest of the face in comparison to how real dachshunds' snouts are. Also, it's a very stiff stuffed animal in relation to all the other Douglas products. I don't need the dog to be floppy with no sense of substance, but for goodness sake the toy is too big and fluffy for it to not give more when you hug it. It's like a statue (All other Douglas dogs are great in the snuggling, more floppy category). I truly don't think anyone has done this breed justice yet, but the Douglas version will have to do for now.

I do not know why Amazon or the seller shows two. I knew I was not getting both. The black and tan dachshund is really pretty and looks better in person. It is soft and a good size. My daughter will love this.

This Douglas Cuddle Toy dachshund looks real. It has beautiful shiny, silky fur and it is made of high quality. I had a dachshund for 14 years and miss her, so I bought this product for myself. It is sitting on my couch and it is so life like I half expect it to jump off of the couch. I would recommend this product, especially for people who like the little dachy dogs. You won't be disappointed.

I purchased this for a grandchild and is the best alternative to the real thing. This dog sleeps quietly with the grandchild, doesn't yap, doesn't poop and brings much comfort and security at bedtime. Good quality ... it's been around for a year (seven dog years) and still loved.

My nephew loves our dog, so I sent this to him as part of his birthday gift. He loves it. He carries it around and treats it like a real dog. It is a good size and very durable.

I got this a few weeks after I lost my dachshund. She was a black/tan, and seeing this product was uplifting. It looks so much like her, and it was a size that is more realistic than something smaller. I'm a lot better now, but I will always keep this doll as a reminder of my baby. It is very soft and extra cuddly. <3
