Dachshunds are very cheerful, sociable and friendly dogs. But for one reason or another, not everyone can afford to have a real dog at home. But a toy dachshund can be placed in any apartment. A soft toy dachshund will perfectly decorate the interior and become a good children's toy.
For work you will need: light brown fleece, a needle, brown threads, padding polyester, scissors, two black beads, a brush, a pointed sushi stick, black acrylic paint, a wide red ribbon, matches, a simple pencil.

Open up the torso
Fold the white satin in half and mark the outline of the body according to the pattern. For marking, you can use a special textile marker. Its peculiarity is that the drawn lines will become discolored over time. Please note that there is a dotted area on the pattern - this place is left without stitching. The doll will be stuffed through it.
Open the blankets
To sew blankets for Tilda the dachshund we will use plaid flannel. Fold it in half. The pattern is made on 1⁄2 part of the part, so we combine the center line of the back of the cape with the fold line of the fabric. Draw the outline.
We cut out the blanket with 1 cm allowances around the entire perimeter.
Press the seam allowance onto the wrong side and stitch.
Ears
We cut out two ears. The stars on the patterns indicate the top of the elements. The dotted line shows the place for stuffing.
We use sewing pins to secure the layers of material so that the fabric does not move while sewing.
Preparing the doll for assembly
Before assembly we must sew the parts of the dachshund. We stitch along all the contours of the parts, leaving gaps for stuffing. This should be done on the marked canvas before cutting out the elements.
The beginning and end of each seam must be secured so that during further work with the part it does not unravel.
We cut out all the parts with an allowance of 5 mm. At the corners, use sharp scissors to make notches in the seam allowance so that after turning the fabric does not tighten.
We turn all the parts inside out and iron them if necessary.
Dachshund Stuffing
We must prepare the stuffing material. It is very convenient to use synthetic winterizer for this. We cut pieces of suitable size from the rolled fabric. We fill in the ears and body of the toy. We do this as tightly as possible, without gaps, folds or wrinkles. You can use sushi sticks or a pencil as a pushing tool.
Having finished stuffing the body and ears, we sew up the remaining hole with hidden stitches.
Adding details
Blanket and ears
To secure the ears you will need a very long needle and two buttons. We fasten the thread on one button, pierce the ear, head, second ear and second button. We unfold the needle and sew the set “button – ear – head – ear – button” in the other direction. We make 2-3 stitches. For convenience, you can slightly squeeze the ears and head. Just don’t overdo it, otherwise the dog will end up with a too narrow head.
We hand-stitch the blanket straps on the chest.
Let's dress up our beauty. You can decorate the outfit with a bow or flower.
On the tummy the outfit looks like this - see photo.
Muzzle
Paint the nose with acrylic paint.
We draw eyes, a spot on the forehead. It can be shaped like a star or a heart.
Apply dry blush to the cheeks.
Medallion
For decoration, you can make a cute medallion for the dog’s neck. We will need a plastic ring of suitable diameter. We tie it with two rows of sc. We make a loop from thin wire, which we secure when tying the ring. We thread a thin lace or braid.
We put the decoration on Tilda the dachshund's neck.
It turned out to be a very beautiful interior toy.
Using this pattern, but slightly changing the outfit and decorations, you can make a family pair of dachshunds.
Do-it-yourself dog pattern from fabric
Long dachshund dogs are very cute and curious. There is an excellent pattern for a dachshund dog in several versions. It can be sewn easily and simply even by novice dressmakers. Here, for example, is a graceful dachshund that can be decorated with all kinds of ribbons and bows. Girls will like it.
The pattern of the dog soft toy can be adapted to any size of the toy. You can make it big or small, depending on what kind of dog you want to sew.
Miniature dogs made from soft fleece or felt make great homemade gifts. These toys can also be hung on the Christmas tree or given to children as sweet gifts.
We have selected dog patterns that are easy to sew and can be modernized if desired. For example, it is not necessary to sew on the frontal part; sometimes this is very difficult. If you still can't sew it on neatly, you can sew the dog without it.
Experiment with fabric colors. Bright, colorful fabric will make soft toys very cute and loved.

Sewing
A universal clothing pattern for a dachshund is carried out as follows:
- First you need to prepare a sheet of soft paper. Its length should be equal to the length of the back from the collar to the base of the tail (DS).
- 10 centimeters are added to the obtained measurements.
- The width of the paper should match the chest circumference (CG). In this case, 10 centimeters are also added.
- A sheet of paper is folded in half and a rectangle is obtained with sides (DS+10) and (OG+10), divided by 2.
- Next, mark the line of the front paws on the sheet. To do this, you need to add 5 centimeters to the length from the neck to the front paws (DOL).
- From the fold line of the paper you need to retreat a distance equal to the value (DOL+5) divided by 2. Then in this area you should cut out holes for the paws.
- The pattern is tried on the dog and the edges of the paper are connected with pins.
Taking measurements
As a result, you will get 4 darts, and they will be located on the stomach.
When adjusting the length of the product, you need to take into account that in the abdominal area the fabric should be shorter than on the back.
- The pins are then removed and the dog is freed from the pattern.
Felt Christmas tree toy
Shrink the pattern down to two pieces, or use any simplified image of a dog.
- sheet felt 2 mm thick;
- small sharp scissors;
- tailor's chalk or pointed soap, they are easily erased from a loose surface;
- thin needle with a wide eye;
- floss threads, contrasting or matching;
- holofiber.
- Trace the outline of the pattern with chalk or soap. Cut out exactly following the outline.
- Sew all the small elements to the top of the craft using a needle-forward stitch or a blanket stitch. Sew buttons for the eyes and nose. Sew a loop of braid.
- Place the top and bottom pieces together. Sew them by hand, leaving 4 - 5 cm unsewn. For sewing, use floss threads in 2 - 4 folds. Try to make the length and width of the stitch the same, then the toy will look neat.
- Fill the body with holofiber and sew up the hole. Decorate your dog with a bright collar or bow.
A series of felt toys, sewn according to the same pattern and decorated in different ways, will decorate your Christmas tree and give it a special charm.

Taking measurements and developing a diagram
To create clothes for a dachshund with your own hands, the pattern must be preceded by accurate measurements of the dog’s body. To create a comfortable and stylish model, you will need to take the following measurements:
- from the root of the tail to the neck;
- neck girth;
- chest girth;
- abdominal girth;
- front paw at its widest point;
- neck - front legs;
- from one front paw to the other.
Based on these measurements, it is not difficult to draw a basis for future sewn or knitted work, even if you have never done this or do not consider yourself a professional.
Rules for caring for clothes
Regardless of whether you bought a costume for your pet or made it yourself, remember that it is mainly used for walking outside, which means it gets dirty instantly.
Therefore, make sure that clothes can be changed regularly and sent to the wash, without leaving the dachshund without a walk and without forcing it to freeze naked. In pursuit of a spectacular and revealing appearance, do not forget that the primary purpose of any dog sweater is to help our little brother feel natural in any conditions - both natural and domestic.
Knitted clothes
If you are not comfortable with a needle and thread, but are great with knitting needles, then we hasten to please you - knitted clothes for dachshunds are easy to make and practical, just like those made from fabric. For this work, 200 g of any yarn of medium thickness will be useful: perhaps you have a ball lying around from a previously knitted scarf or sweater, or you purchased a warm woolen thread especially for this case. Here are some tips for creating a stylish sweater:
Start knitting it from the neck.
- On the back side, reduce the number of stitches to avoid the formation of folds and wrinkles.
- The sleeve knitting technique is similar to the technique for the fingers of gloves.
- Decorate the finished sweater with decor or add buttons.
The variety of yarn colors allows you to create not only clothes that are comfortable for your dachshund, but also a whole work of design art.
Advanced knitters can afford to give their pet a whole costume: a warm blanket or sweater and boots in case of particularly severe frosts. An evening of work will be fully repaid with doggy joy.
Cutting wisely
Different clothes are suitable for different dogs, and for a dachshund you need to cut them in a special way - in accordance with the structure of the body, legs, and chest. To, for example, sew overalls for a dachshund, you need to measure the dog with a centimeter, and then measure out the lines on paper.
In order to sew overalls for a dachshund, a pattern is needed, first of all, which means you need to make the following measurements:
- Distance from withers to tail;
- From front to hind legs;
- Distance between front and hind legs;
- The length of the front and hind legs, their girth;
- Neck, waist and chest circumference.
If you do everything correctly, you will end up with a pattern that, with a seam allowance, can be used to cut the garment onto the fabric.
Keep in mind that when sewing the parts of the overalls, there should be a large cutout on the belly for the dog. And for the female, the belly is covered with a cloth, leaving a small hole.
For winter, you need to insulate your overalls with padding polyester, and for spring, raincoat fabric with microfiber is suitable. Have you already decided to sew a jumpsuit for your dachshund?
Perhaps there is some truth in this; in this case, you need to make large holes for the paws so that the gait does not change. If you are also against overalls, we recommend that you make a blanket or vest. They are more comfortable to wear, they do not chafe, and sweating occurs much less frequently. In any case, for the dachshund, more than for any other dog, accuracy in calculations and allowances are important, thanks to which you can design a spacious product.
I would like to say a few words about wearing clothes; if you have worn them once, you should clean them, or better yet, wash them the next time, wearing a replacement. This is necessary to prevent bacteria from accumulating on your pet’s skin. That's why the range of products in your dachshund's closet or chest should be colossal. Remember one rule for a dachshund - restrictive movements are contraindicated for it and no matter how beautiful the overalls are, it is better to abandon them and choose the most comfortable model!
Blanket with Velcro or buttons
It is difficult to find a more versatile and functional item than a blanket with a convenient fastener. It is easy to make, unpretentious in resources and will serve you and your dachshund well. To sew such a model you will need:
- a piece of any fabric measuring 75*75 cm for the main part of the product;
- bias tape for edging the edges (about 3 m);
- 25-30 cm of velcro tape or several buttons;
- previously prepared universal pattern.
Using a sewing machine, the process will take you about two hours. But all the work can be done almost just as quickly by hand. Manufacturing procedure:
- Place the pattern on the fabric from the wrong side and trace with a pencil or chalk.
- Cut along the resulting contour, leaving an allowance of about 1-2 cm
- Make a rectangle of fabric measuring 11*17 cm and trim the edges so that they do not fray. This is the future “collar” with Velcro.
- Grind down the darts if the drawing requires it.
- Edge the edges of the blanket with trim.
- Sew adhesive tape or buttons on the side and on the “collar”, which is located on the chest.
