| If you want a dog that will make passersby smile
as you walk him, get a doxie. They don't shed like most dogs.
Most people with allergies can own a weiner dog and breath easy.
They don't smell. They wash out like a hankie. If kids are good
to them, they'll be good with kids. |
| They were bred to go down into badger holes - alone - so they
are independent. They're dedicated ball players. |
| But mostly, they're lovers. They want to be with you. If you
work all day, he'll sleep in a crate or cage and be delighted
when you finally come home. If he is socialized (taken everywhere
and introduced all over) when he's young, he'll love everyone. |
| He likes to sleep with you, but he should first
be trained to a crate. When you go to grandma's, take his crate
and he'll have his own little home with him. He'll be content
and be little bother. |
