Why is the colour Isabella (or blue/ grey) not recognised in the Dachshund breed standard? The reason is below.
“ As part of education - I am attaching photos of the danger of crossing dachshunds in a way that is not in accordance with the breed standard.
Here is an example of "Isabella / silver / blue / gray" or whatever they call it. People think, it's just about the color "what if it's not in accordance with the standard, if we will love it the same, and so beautiful etc." They think that we cling only because the color doesn't match our standard.
Ladies and Gentleman, it's not strictly about color, but what this color means. This particular gray color implies a genetic defect. This genetic defect is caused by 2 things - gray color of coat (which unfortunately many people like and encourage to buy a puppy unaware of their owners) AND many conditions for severe dermatological, ocular and circulatory conditions. These flaws do not reveal themselves most often when a dog is a puppy, so such a puppy looks lovely. They only reveal themselves as adults. Gray dachshunds suffer from baldness in adult ages (which causes lack of fur, sun burns and eventually skin cancer), skin cornea, rashes, burns and skin ailment, which usually results from swelling and falling off of ear fragments. They also suffer from many autoimmune conditions, including gastric diseases. In summary, once again - it's not that the color doesn't match the standard. The point is that this color is caused by som**hing and that "SOMETHING" is a CDA gene, which besides color guarantees health problems in adult age. So be aware of what problems, what suffering and what treatment costs in the future you decide to get a dog, because you like the color.
The attached photos show flaws in puppy and adult gray dachshunds already revealed.
PS. Please believe me that some colors are banned not because some bureaucrat is sitting there thinking - no, I don't like that color, so we won't put it in the standard. These colors are forbidden for health reasons, so as not to cause animals suffering and not to reproduce them so that they can have sick offspring. Precisely in the case of dogs, it happens that it is easy to recognize genetic defects by the color of the coat, which is why critical comments about the color that does not match the standard appear when someone wants to buy or breed such a dog.”

Before and after 🤦
I considered not posting this, because I felt like I should have known better. But it just goes to show we are all human.
Bandit was given this cooling bone for Christmas. I was aware (from my own knowledge, I do not believe the warnings are significant enough on the packaging for people who are not working in the field) that the gel inside could be toxic and shouldnt be consumed.
I purposefully gave it to him where I could watch him, but within two minutes of giving to him I looked away for about 30sec and looked back and he was crunching away at the stuff inside.
I rushed him to our emergency clinic, where I found out the toxic dose for antifreeze (ethylene glycol) was much less than I thought (approximately 6ml for a dog his size). We induced emesis and he was put on fluids. Luckily we discovered that only half the bone is antifreeze and the rest is just frozen water, and he happened to get into the side with the water. He is now home from his big adventure.
Obviously there is a level of responsibility put on us as pet owners, but I am honestly baffled that is allowed to sell a toy for dogs that contains an ingredient that is so incredibly toxic to those dogs. There has been a lot of publicity on how rawhide is bad for dogs, but I don't think there is much awareness on ethylene glycol toxicity.
Luckily Bandit will be okay, but I shudder to think of other dogs owners who are not aware of the dangers and give it to their dogs.
Situated between the capitol city of Queensland and the sweltering armpit of the state (Cairns) there’s a well known goat track connecting the two named after Harry Bruce, another clueless politician of the 1930’s who had no idea how to build a road. Completed in 1977 and recommended for extreme off-road 4wd vehicles only it was built primarily for drug dealers to transport m**h to all the crackhead hotspots up the QLD coast.
Supposedly being 1,679 kilometres of sealed road the Bruce Highway is more famous for being the most unsealed continuous goat track in the state and has been nicknamed the ‘Highway of Shame’ due to its 761 crashes in the past 13 years alone and being responsible for 17% of the national Highway death toll.
Despite the fact most vehicles who take on this challenging obstacle course spend more time getting lost in pot holes, veering off the road and crashing to avoid kangaroos and running up the asses of other vehicles there’s a plethora of interesting things to do and see on this ‘scenic route’ through the middle of butt-f**k nowhere. Designed to be a coastal route with plenty of breathtaking views of the ocean these things include seeing f**k all ocean views at all, getting your vehicle stolen by bogan teen delinquents and having your windscreen smashed by all the loose rocks being thrown at you by passing trucks.
This treacherous trail passes through countless bogan communities including the Obesity (also known as Beef) Capital of Australia, Rockhampton, a great spot to stop and get Cholesterol poisoning at one of the thousands of fast food joints in the town while kicking back and watching local youth crime spiral out of control. After som**hing more exciting? This goat track has it all, if you’re in the mood to be abducted or murdered or both the ‘Horror Stretch’ (aka The Killing fields or Badlands) between Marlborough and Sarina can provide such violent experiences and has had countless unsolved crimes and acts of violence in the past century so much so that they had to relocate the Highway 80klm east where it is today because even hardened m**hed up truck drivers refused to travel it at night.
If you do manage to miraculously pass through Townsville without having your car stolen by local teens or being bashed by a roided up AJ you’ll come across a natural phenomenon of migrating backpackers. These poor, stinky, unemployed, homeless and usually high hippies drive unroadworthy s**tbox vans that do 0-100 klm/hr in well… never… and slow traffic to an almost stand still wherever they go, as a safety precaution to avoid these oblivious wankers their vans are usually painted bright colors like Fluro green so they can be seen from miles away.
A popular hot spot for these hobos is Mission Beach, a quiet old in**ed town cut off from the rest of the world with more in**st then the Game of Thrones which the locals believe is a documentary. If you survived being attacked by murderous suicidal kangaroos jumping at your car then the giant murderbirds that look like roided up chickens that never miss leg day called Cassowaries will sure as hell finish you off! Commonly mistaken for a Jurassic Park experiment that went wrong these 7 foot tall killing machines are the result of a Turkey f**king a Velociraptor!
Fun pass times during this journey aren’t limited to being flooded and having your car washed away, taking a s**t in the middle of the road, partaking in illegal overtaking, speeding, being tailgated by m**hed up truckies with anger issues, falling asleep at the wheel and sustaining damage to your vehicle from hitting potholes and wildlife (of both animal and human species).
Whenever it rains Bruce’s goat track turns into a giant version of the Kakoda trail, this keeps thousands of untrained road workers employed who unsuccessfully fix the road but successfully make 6 hour drives into 3 day long ordeals by holding up traffic with strategically placed red lights every couple kilometres the whole way from Brissy to Cairns, their motto being ‘We don’t always fix roads, but when we do, we don’t!’.
Driving this track is a terrible idea any time of year and will end up being one of the worst and potentially most expensive decisions you’ve ever made but if you want to experience what roads were like in the 1700’s and if you are lucky enough to ‘Survive this Drive’ by the time you reach your destination in your now beat up s**tbox vehicle which is also now falling to pieces you’ll feel like you’ve won the lottery!
