These are some tips for helping your new doxie transition easily into your life in a happy and positive based one for both of you. Generally, the first day is great, the first week is horrible the first month is tentative, but after that you'll wonder how you lived without this wonderful little being in your life. Most adopted doxies have just been through some type of emotional trauma. They may have been separated from a loved one through death, may have lost a family they loved, may have been abandoned and bounced through the shelter system or some other tough situation. This means they need patience, love and guidance to fit into your world.
Doxies are bright intelligent and loyal creatures and make wonderful life long companions.
The diet you choose for your dog should be a balanced one. There are many excellent dog foods available on the market today. The goal is to provide sound nutrition while maintaining stable weight. Weigh between 6 and 12 lbs. Generally, we recommend Iams Mini-Chunks and Pedigree Choice Cuts.
