Engraved tags for a long dog with short patience. Dachshunds were bred to go after badgers and now spend their days going after blankets, crumbs and the mail carrier.
A dachshund's tag rides lower than almost any breed's. It drags under blankets, scrapes through grass and gets wedged into every couch cushion they tunnel into.
We laser-cut the text into the metal. Nothing printed on top, so the phone number survives the burrowing.
The dog is long. The tag is short and to the point.
Dachshunds have slim necks and ride low. Too big a tag drags; too small is hard to read. Minis and standards size differently.
Small 1 inch
$12
The one most minis wear. Light and easy on a narrow collar.
Medium 1.5 inch
$14
The one most standard dachshunds wear. Readable without dragging.
Large 2 inch
$16
Usually too much tag for a dachshund. Skip it unless the collar is wide.
Short answer: standard dachshund, go Medium. Mini, go Small.
Add $4 for stainless or brass, $6 for polished. Shapes available at the size you pick are shown in the builder, and the preview is exactly what we engrave. More breeds in the size guide by breed.

We're a family in Lehi, Utah with seven English bulldogs and one very busy laser. We wrote the bulldog tags first, from experience. Bulldogs and dachshunds agree on one thing: stairs are a scam. The dachshund lines come from friends with doxies who bark at our bulldogs from behind the fence.

Medium (1.5 inch) for standards, Small (1 inch) for minis. Dachshunds ride low, so check the tag doesn't drag.
No. The words are laser engraved into the metal, not printed on top.
Yes. Saying on the front, name and phone number on the back.
