Double Dapple Doxies are a rare and attractive variant of the Dachshund, with white markings on the fur and a specific coat pattern that resembles that of a Collie. Though the double dapple trait looks beautiful, it sparks controversy among some breed experts.

Many researchers point out the potential health problems with these dogs and warn about irresponsible breeding practices. Double Dapple Dachshunds are forbidden in most European countries, but they are still recognized by the American Kennel Club.
