Petfinder.com, the largest online database of adoptable pets, announced earlier this month the 2007 Top 10 Pet Names for dogs gathered from Petfinder.com's more than 11,000 animal shelters and rescue group members. We've also added out own favourite Dachshund names below it.

If you want something Germanic influenced and didn't find anything to your taste in the selection above, here's a complete list of German names. The Daily Dachshund and Dog News especially likes Frieda for girls and Sigmund for boys. We're also partial to Fritz, which is as classic as Oscar although less cerebral. And as this wedding photo of Fritz and Frieda demonstrates, timeless names and traditions just never go out of style.

I have a mini named Mason & a full size named Scooter :]
I didn't pick the names, but they were absolutely perfect for them!
we need help with a name for a mini- dachshund black & tan dapple we are rescuing today. she's very calm.... which we hope will balance out our very active mini-doxie Lola that we already have. we're latino so we'd like a name that reflects that... were leaning to Frida, Mia or Josie.

my weenie is Wiener Schnitzel
she gets called just schnitzel or her nickname is Nitzy. which is adorable, because on the simpsoms, marge tries to get a vanity license plate that says mitzy, but its already taken. the clerk suggests nitzy. im a simpsons nerd as well as a doxie nerd so the name is perfect for my dog
My mini's name is Newmie we wanted a dog named Neuman of sienfield fame be we also wanted a female, so Nemwie was decided
Current haus is populated with Gretel, Heidi & Winnie II. Sibling has Helga III und Freida. Parental unit has a little red Portia. We always stick with good German names for our hounds. But I will admit, the best non-German names for a pair I met, were for a red girl & black boy: Lucy & Ricky. :)
My dachshund chihuahua mix is named Renaldo the Red.

Our favorite wiener was our beloved Beanie. She was the best (rest her soul) but we are ready to get another very soon.
