Go for the dachshund he wants.
We had one for 13 years when I was a teenager. He was very well-behaved and very trained. He would scritch at the door when he needed to go out. Stayed all day when my parents went to work and we went to school with no accidents. We had a smoothcoat red. I have seen some really great looking dapples lately.
My brother has a 6 year old rescue dachshund now that he got about 6 months ago. Other than being a bit of a chow hound (he had to battle with 3 bigger dogs in his previous home), he is a great dog. He is very very attached to my brother in just a short time.
You might check for a local dachshund rescue.
