Step 1. Draw the Eyes

First draw the eyes of the dog, Draw two ovals of different sizes due to the side view, then inside each eye add a circle for the eyeball and add a pupil for the eye.

Step 2. Add the Eyebrows

Above each eye add a curved eyebrow.

Step 3. Sketch the Head

Sketch the head with a long and thin muzzle, we will draw a relatively large nose. To complete this step, draw a long smiling mouth extending to the left from below the nose.

Step 4. Add the Ears

Draw the large ear drooping down as shown.

Step 5. Draw the Back

Draw the back of the Dachshund simply with a curve as shown.

Step 6. Chest and Front Legs

First, extend a slight curve from the base of the head down. Then, there will be a small short leg coming down from it with some small curved toes at the base. Then draw a smaller curve for the chest near this leg. Add another leg and then add details on the legs and toes.

Step 7. Belly, hind legs and tail

Draw a curve for the belly, Dachshunds have small, narrow bellies. Now you’ll draw the back legs of your dachshund drawing. The hind legs will look quite similar to the front legs, but they’ll be a little longer. The legs at the back will also be further apart and positioning them this way will help this adorable dachshund look more confident! Finally, add a cute little curled tail to the dachshund’s back, extending upwards.

Step 6. Finishing Your Dachshund Drawing With Color

This breed has an alternating palette of dark brown and light brown, and this is the approach we used in our example for this dachshund drawing.
