I also love doxies! I lost my 8 year old doxie, my soulmate and my special boy, Toby, 1/12/08. I still cannot speak of him without crying. It left a huge hole in my heart. I just got a new one from a rescue, he is a male chocolate doxie 3 years of age and his name is J.R.!! That's what they called him so I just left his name. He was a breeder so I figured it fit him, he loved 'em and left 'em!!!!! I would have a house full if I could afford the vet bills!
