Dachshund urns, sized to them.
A miniature Dachshund weighs up to 11 lb (5 kg) and a standard Dachshund 16 to 32 lb (7.3 to 14.5 kg), so they need up to about 38 cubic inches (625 ml) of space. Our Small urn holds a dog up to 33 lb (15 kg), so it fits miniature and standard Dachshunds alike.
We sculpt each of our photo urns from your Dachshund's own photos, so it is a likeness of them, not a breed model. Enter their weight below to check the size.

Choosing for a Dachshund, answered plainly.
What size urn does a Dachshund need?
A miniature Dachshund weighs up to 11 lb (5 kg) and a standard Dachshund 16 to 32 lb (7.3 to 14.5 kg), so they need up to about 38 cubic inches (625 ml) of space. Our Small urn holds a dog up to 33 lb (15 kg), so it fits miniature and standard Dachshunds alike.
Allow one cubic inch of space for each pound they weighed when they were well, plus a tenth, plus 3 cubic inches. Use your Dachshund's own weight, not the breed's: your vet will have a record of it. If they were close to the top of a size, choose the next one up.
Can you make an urn that looks like my Dachshund?
Yes. We sculpt it from your photos of them, so it shows your Dachshund, not a stock figure.
Send a few clear photos and we design it for free; you pay nothing until you say yes to the design. Making takes 10 working days from your yes.
Can the urn go outdoors?
Yes: the stone takes rain and frost.
The urn does not seal out rain, so the ashes stay in their sealed bag inside it.
