    Rare colour Dachshunds such as Isabella Piebalds are found through irresponsible breeding (whether or not they are bred in a home environment), as they are selectively bred for their looks, with no thought to their health and welfare. This breed is highly prone to alopecia, infection, skin cancer, congenital deafness and eye sight issues. As a dog owner my self ultimately I would want to own a dog that had a greater chance of living a long and healthy life, rather than prioritising owning a dog with a rare colouring. Please do your research if you are influenced to buy a Isabella Piebald Dachshund after seeing this video.

    Will you address why you have gone down the piebald/ double dapple route when choosing your second pup? In a previous video you mention being aware of the health issues these coloured dachshunds have yet you have decided to purchase one, from a more than likely, unethical breeder. Did you make the decision purely to obtain a desirable colour? There is a reason these colours aren't recognised by the KC and why ethical breeders would never breed in this way.

    What a cutie pie! With three dogs at our house I learned something I thought I would pass on. Its important to give Porter attention 1st and any other situation him 1st. It shows hierachy within the dog family. I didnt know about this when our third dog was added and because she was young and full of vigor she was always getting attention 1st. This lead to her thinking she was the alpha and then she started turning on the other two dogs. Long story short, it was my actions and reactions that were causing the issue. Just some advice...Porter 1st will show B where he stands in the family order. Congrats on the new family member!

      The reasons Isabellas sell for a much higher price than normal colours is because they are rare and people want them as a fashion symbol.

    Running the risk of sounding like a repetitive animal rights militant now but I really think you’ve missed a trick not considering rescuing your next pup. You guys have proved yourselves such caring, wondering dog parents and you’d make a little rescue so happy. There are lots of Dachshunds in need at the moment and you could really use your platform to advocate for re-homing. The bond you have with rescues is unlike no other. Congratulations on Barkley, he’s beautiful. I just hurts my heart a bit that influencers keep lining the pockets of breeders when so many are in shelters

      as wonderful as lydia and ali are, they are not animal lovers. they love their pets, and that is it. i expect *nothing* from them in the light of actually being conscious about animals and how they go about introducing them into their home as pets. i gave up making comments like this years ago--it goes no where! for what it's worth, you're right, and i completely agree.

      Speaking from rescuing dogs and owning puppies: rescue dogs are a huge amount of work and aren't for people with busy lifestyles (in my experience). They can be the best dogs ever but in a lot of cases you have to put in a lot of work to get there as most have behavioural issues and they're older.

      She rescued something else and it wasn't for her and had to go back.. In all honesty she's a great owner to her new pooch and cat but still she's not overly good with animals. If you noticed in the other days vid she mentioned porter was digging through a blank to sofa, I don't think he was digging to sofa just digging to get comfy like most knowledgeable animal owners would know. In all honesty not rescuing animals is a better idea for people who aren't 100% confident. And I think that is Lydia, getting a dog from a breeder and not rescuing is more sensible and always comes with the back up that it can go back if it doesn't work out, in all fairness Lydia has done good research and found a good breed which suits her family.

    It’s a shame you have supported an unethical breeder, blue, Isabella and piebald dachshunds are not to the breed standard and are breed purely for there look/ unique colour which is very unfair on the dog, they are known to have awful health and skin conditions. I’m surprised someone with such a Big following failed to research this first and didn’t choose a dog from an ethical breeder or even better a rescue.

If a certain colour is marked as not recognised by the breed standards, and there are specific reasons for that, I would be more likely to believe them, rather then “high class” so called breeders, whose job is literary is to sell dogs. They will always paint a beautiful picture for you, just to sell their product. With almost a million subscribers there comes a certain responsibility, especially when you literally are influencing other people.
