I’ve been making Dachshund calendars for more than 10 years and I’m so happy since last year it’s became international!

Except on Christmas, when indoor pictures near the Christmas tree are also allowed. Dachshunds together with other dog breeds or people, as well as photos from the dog shows will not be accepted.
