About the Doxle

The Doxle is an energetic and lovable hybrid that combines the keen nose of a Beagle with the bold personality of a Dachshund. These medium-sized dogs inherit the best of both parent breeds — the Beagle's friendly sociability and excellent scenting ability paired with the Dachshund's courageous spirit and distinctive long body. Doxles make wonderful family companions who are always ready for an adventure.
