My mom and I had a Miniature, Long hair, (blue) dapple doxie. He was the smartest sweetest dog I've ever had. I miss him sooooooo much.

He had a disc diteriating disease and became paralized at only 1 1/2 yrs. old and we had the surgery but it did nothing for him. I'm not positive but I think there is a test you can run to find out if they have the disease just like with a yokie with LP/ I don't know for a fact but that may be something you want to check into. It cost us like $3,000.00 and he never got better.
