Dachshund Catching Snowflakes Sweatshirt: Embroidered Doxie Standing Up in the Snow

Here is a dachshund catching snowflakes sweatshirt for winter lovers: a smooth doxie stands up on its hind legs, nose pointed at the sky, inside a wide ring of falling snowflakes. It is a ready-made design, embroidered to order in real thread rather than printed.

What is on the dachshund catching snowflakes sweatshirt?

The dog sits in the middle of the chest with the snow circling around it, so the whole design looks like a small snow globe.

• The doxie: balanced on its back paws, one front paw tucked against its chest, head tipped all the way back and its long thin tail resting on the ground behind it.
• The coat: black with tan on the muzzle, the throat, an eyebrow spot and the paws on the mid-tone sweatshirts.
• The snow: a dozen or so lacy, six-pointed snowflakes in different sizes, scattered in an arc above and beside the dog.

Why is the dachshund standing up?

Plenty of dogs snap at falling snow, and a dachshund starts at a disadvantage: it is built long and low, close to the ground. So this doxie does what many dachshunds do when something is just out of reach: it rears up on its hind legs and stretches its nose skyward to meet the next flake. There is no Santa hat and no lettering, only a dog and the snow, which makes it a winter doxie sweatshirt you can wear from the first flurry in December through the gray days of February. It is just as fitting for a snow day, a ski weekend or a walk with a dog that insists on going out in every storm.

Which color should you choose?

The thread colors change with the sweatshirt so the dog never disappears. On mid-tone colors the doxie is black and tan with white snowflakes. On the lightest colors the snowflakes turn a pale blue, and on the darkest colors the dog is stitched in a warm tan. Pick a color in the options above and the photos switch to show that version, and your free proof confirms the exact thread colors before we stitch.

This dachshund snowfall sweatshirt suits a dachshund mom or dad, a friend with a red or a black and tan doxie, or anyone who prefers a quiet winter design to a loud holiday print.

Can you add a name to the sleeve?

Yes. Type your doxie’s name or your initials, choose the left or right sleeve, and select a font, an icon and a thread color from the charts in the photos. White thread is chosen for you and shows up on dark sweatshirts; on the light colors, change it to Black or another dark thread.
