Looking for a dutchound (spelling wrong ) for my daughter and was woundering a rough price for them as want to get her one for xmas

I assume u mean a dachshund?
There are different types so u will also need to decide which type u are looking for. A lot of pre planning should go into deciding a breed and finding a good breeder as well as thinking about your circumstances.
Is your daughter old enough to care for a puppy ? Or will this be u ? Does that fit with your lifestyle? Puppies of all breeds are very hard work and if not well trained can become difficult adults
For a number of reasons getting a puppy for Xmas is not the best idea and particularly in this year finding a well bred puppy is very very hard .
.u need to find a good breeder and get onto their waiting list. Have a look in the breeder section here
Also look  at the breed club especially to find out what health tests should done on the parents before breeding . There are a  quite a few depending on which variety you are looking for  That isn't a vet check but specific genetic or physical  testing 
Atm prices are sky high  I dont exactly know with this breed but in many breeds we are talking 2 to 4 thousand.https://www.dachshundhealth.org.uk/health-testing

> want to get her one for xmas

Noooooo!   Unless your household is very quiet at Christmas (more than as required at the moment), this is the worst possible time to buy a puppy which is something good breeders know.   By all means give your daughter (how old?) an IOU but please please wait until after the holidays are over.  People don't appreciate the huge demands of a puppy, newly out into the world.

Add to that the fact that puppy prices across the board have gone through the roof because BYBs are cashing in on a situation where good breeders are not producing puppies as normal.

And then you need to decide which variety of Dachsie you'd like.   They come in more than one - from Standard Smooth haired, to Miniature Long haired and inbetween.

By all means go visit some breeders (by appointment and not on the same day so you don't spread infection, to humans or puppies) but delay this purchase so you can devote all the time needed to your new puppy.   I hope YOU want this puppy because believe me, once the novelty wears off, most children move onto something else, leaving all the work to you (mum?)

Hi CamoTart
I have no idea of the price of a dachshund puppy but dare I say it that dogs are living creatures and are not bought at a week's notice as a Christmas present.
Unless you are happy to pass over crazy amounts of money to a puppy-farmer for a puppy whose parents have had no health checks and live in grim conditions as breeding machines.

Looking at that ! website prices are anything up to 5k .unless u include the £99 999 not sure what thats about. Unless its code for poa .
Including  one seller who has a singleton for sale 3 times at different prices .

There are 6 varieties of Dachshund, Smooth Haired, Long Haired & Wire Haired & come in Standard or Miniature.  https://www.champdogs.co.uk/breeds/d

It is highly unlikely you will get a puppy, of any breed, as quick as Christmas, quite rightly so!!
You should find a breeder that you trust & they trust you, then get a puppy when they breed.
Looking at the prices on here for last year, across all the dachshunds, you will be paying £1200-£1600

There’s some very nice Dachsie soft toys online which you are more likely to get for Christmas (and cheaper too)

IMO:  Looking through the thread, I think the poster was looking for a live puppy.  Rightly or wrongly unaware of the current situation or experience required
and the reason she enquired with the Forum.

I think it's fair to say that a puppy purchase should not be a rash/last minute purchase.

You would not be able to get a large piece of furniture like a sofa at such short notice.

In fact you'd visit several stores, choose the model, order and wait around 12+ weeks for it to be made.

So planning for a puppy, that is a living breathing being should involve at least that sort of thought, as it's a 12 - 15 year commitment.

The Dogs Trust tag line of 'A dog is for life, not just for Christmas' came into being due to the large number of dogs coming into rescue shortly after Christmas.

There are several good reasons for why Christmas is not a good time of year to buy a puppy. I can understand wanting to surprise a child that has been wanting a dog for a long time IF the parents are fully understanding of the fact that it will ultimately be their responsibility to look after the dog. They have to want is just as much. Giving any pet as a surprise present is never a good idea unless you know the receiver is fully prepared and able to look after it. However, Christmas is usually, for most households, not a good time for a new pup. There's a lot more going on than usual, there's toxic food around, decorations that can be eaten, it's stressful for a pup.

It takes months to research breeds and find a good breeder - far from all breeders are, too many are only interested in making money. A sure sign of a dodgy breeder is that they will advertise pups as "ready for Christmas" or the bit more underhand "Ready to leave on the 25th of December". Caring breeders will not sell their pups until after Christmas, unless they are going to a quiet home with perhaps just one or two adults and no visitors due.

How about buying a book about dogs ("The perfect puppy" by Gwen Bailey is a good one) and/or a breed specific book, give that as the present and alongside it the promise of a pup when there is a suitable one available?

I'd add the cuddly toy to the book and IOU.

Then you could bith have fun doing your research.

A nice day out to visit a breed club event to meet good breeders.

What a brilliant idea - wish I had thought of it! 
Hope the OP follows your advice

Hello CamoTart,

In answer to your question, and it sounds by asking for help on a forum you are trying to investigate, in a nice way it would be better not to buy at Christmas if only to avoid being scammed as organised criminals operate at this time especially keen to target people seeking a gift like yourself.

I don’t want to jump to any conclusions, perhaps you have excellent answers to all the points raised here, so I hope you revisit the forum in the future. As another poster has suggested, perhaps making it a fun search for a puppy to look forward to in 2021 would be a good idea to avoid being hugely over charged by someone less than reputable. Reputable breeders have waiting lists and in the New Year I’m sure the Dachshund breed club would be glad to give you some advice so you can find a puppy from someone who cares about their babies. It would be really sad for you and your daughter to end up with a puppy you can’t enjoy because of genetic health issues or problems from unsatisfactory reading conditions.

Good luck and hope you and your daughter have a lovely Christmas.
