Miniature dachshund puppy delights millions: What makes him so special

Gaffney (USA) - Dachshunds are not considered to be particularly large dogs anyway , but when they come in the dwarf breeding variety, they are even smaller - and in the eyes of many, even cuter. But a puppy from the US state of South Carolina seems to be the pinnacle of cuteness. One detail in particular is melting hearts online.

What's cuter than a dwarf dachshund puppy? That's right, a miniature dachshund puppy with a beautiful iris heterochromia!

The little puppy named Mocha recently went viral on TikTok and Instagram. Users were shocked by her different colored eyes, small body and special coat.

At the beginning of the year, Kyla Crow uploaded a photo of the badger dog to her TikTok page. In the 24-second clip, Mocha can initially only be seen from behind, with the sun breaking through the trees in the forest in the background.

A little later, the puppy is turned towards the camera. It is immediately apparent that the dwarf dachshund has one brown and one blue eye. Mocha's whole, miniature body trembles, somewhat unsettled.

A few weeks later, the video has already been viewed 7.5 million times. 1.5 million users left a like. Countless of them vied for the dog in the comments, wanting to buy him immediately.

Dachshunds with iris heterochromia allegedly not for sale

Kyla Crow and her husband have been breeding miniature dachshunds in the US town of Gaffney since 2018. She keeps fans of the cute breed up to date with the latest litters on social media.

She also introduced Mocha, who was presumably born at the beginning of last Christmas, to her followers in several posts on her Instagram page. The interest here was also huge.

But the US-American dashed the hopes of dog lovers: according to her, the special dwarf dachshund puppy is not for sale ... at least not for the time being!
