Species group: Mixed Breeds
Other name(s): Bo-Dach, Boston Doxie Terrier
The basics:
RightPet does not advocate the intentional cross-breeding of purebred dogs. But the reality is that most dogs available for adoption at shelters and rescues are mixed breeds. We think it might be helpful to hear from owners of these mixes to see what traits can be found in these dogs who are desperately needing homes.
The first generation Bo-Dach is a cross between a pure Boston Terrier and a pure Dachshund, although subsequent generations may have different proportions of the two breeds in the mix.
Appearance / health:
While all mixed-breed dogs can vary in appearance, the Bo-Dach can offer a wide range of looks, including some individuals that barely reveal the long, low Dachshund heritage.
Behavior / temperament:
While it's impossible to predict the exact traits inherited by a mixed-breed dog, the outcome of this mix seems to be particularly unpredictable, with at least one owner reporting that dogs from the same litter were completely different. Be an intuitive owner who knows how to train with consistency and kindness to bring out the best in this mix.
