Everything You Need to Know About the Adorable Dapple Doxie
A dapple doxie is a dachshund with a distinctive dappled coat pattern. The dapple pattern is caused by a merle gene, which affects the distribution of pigment in the coat. Dapple doxies can have a wide range of coat colors, including black, brown, red, and blue. The dapple pattern can vary from a few small spots to large, irregular patches.
Dapple doxies are not a separate breed of dachshund, but rather a color variation. They are just as healthy and have the same lifespan as other dachshunds. Dapple doxies are known for being friendly, playful, and loyal companions.
