Dachshund American Flag Sweatshirt: Embroidered Doxie Silhouette Carrying a USA Flag

This dachshund American flag sweatshirt is all about the unmistakable wiener dog shape: the long low body, the short legs, the floppy ears and the tail held high, all in one solid black silhouette. The doxie trots along with a little USA flag on a wooden stick in its mouth, so the red and white stripes and the blue field of stars hang right in front of its chest and are the only color on the design. It is a ready-made design: choose the color and size, add a name or icon on the sleeve if you like, and we stitch it to order. Every stitch is 100% real embroidery, stitched into the fabric rather than printed.

What is on the dachshund American flag sweatshirt?

The dachshund American flag sweatshirt has 2 parts:

• The doxie: centered on the chest, a black dachshund silhouette carrying a red, white and blue flag.
• The sleeve (optional): a name, initials or short word and an icon from the font and icon chart, in the font and thread color you choose, on the left or right sleeve.

Which color should you choose?

Pick a color in the options above and the photos switch to it, so you can see the design on that color before you order. A black silhouette needs a lighter background, so the doxie reads sharpest on light, pastel and mid-tone colors, from soft neutrals and greys to dusty blues, greens and pinks. Very dark colors would hide the dog and leave only the flag, which is why the colors on offer are the lighter ones.

How do you order your sweatshirt?

To order your sweatshirt, follow 4 steps:

• Choose the sweatshirt color and size in the options above.
• Choose whether to add sleeve embroidery.
• If you add it, type the name or initials, then pick the icon, font, thread color and sleeve.
• Add it to your cart; we email a free design proof before we stitch.

How do you add a name or icon on the sleeve?

Sleeve embroidery is optional and goes on one sleeve. Type a short name or your initials, such as your doxie’s name or the words Doxie Mom, and pick an icon, a font and a thread color from the charts in the photos, or leave the icon off. Black thread is preselected because it matches the dog and reads best on these lighter sweatshirts; pick a bright thread if you prefer contrast.

Is it a patriotic dachshund sweatshirt for every day?

Yes. It works as a dachshund 4th of July sweatshirt for the parade and the fireworks, and because the design is a clean silhouette with one small flag, it stays easy to wear on Memorial Day, Labor Day, game days and ordinary weekends. Think of it as a patriotic dachshund sweatshirt rather than a costume.

Is it a good gift for a dachshund lover?

Yes. It suits a doxie mom or dad, a family whose wiener dog marches in every neighborhood parade, or a friend who brings the dog to every summer cookout. Add the dog’s name on the sleeve, and find more ideas in our dachshund gifts.

Is there a hoodie or T-shirt version?

No. This design comes only on the crewneck sweatshirt, so the color and size options above are all for that sweatshirt.

What happens after you order?

We email you a free digital design proof, and you can ask for unlimited edits. Once you approve it, we embroider your sweatshirt to order and ship it from the USA; the estimated delivery date is shown on this page. For the Fourth of July or any holiday, order at least two weeks ahead.

Which size should you choose?

Each piece is made to order, so it is not eligible for size exchanges. Open the size guide on this page and compare the measurements with a top you already own before you order; we suggest sizing up if you are between sizes.

How should you wash an embroidered sweatshirt?

To keep the embroidery bright and flat, follow 4 steps:

• Turn the sweatshirt inside out before washing.
• Wash it cold on a gentle cycle.
• Tumble dry low or hang it to dry.
• Iron on the reverse side, never directly on the embroidery.

Frequently asked questions

Is the dachshund printed or embroidered?

It is embroidered. The black silhouette is filled with dense stitches, and the flag’s stripes and stars are stitched in thread too, so the design has a raised texture you can feel and will not crack or peel like a print.

Are there other dachshund designs?

Yes. The floral dachshund sweatshirt sets a doxie silhouette among wildflowers, and the red dachshund sweatshirt stitches a red doxie face with long floppy ears on the left chest. More are in our dachshund sweatshirts.

Can the doxie look like my own dog?

This doxie is a ready-made design. To stitch your own dog’s face from a photo, choose the custom dog crewneck, or browse more ideas in our dog lover gifts.
