Beau is my very special boy. We were lucky to snatch him away from a bunch of breeders at a dog auction. He is a 4 year old black and tan dapple doxie. Beau weighs 9 pounds. The first day that I had him home, I realized that he was severly matted on his belly and feet. I sat him in my lap and shaved the mats off, then I cut his nails. He was patient and sweet, licking my face as I tried to make him more comfortable. When I had his dental done, we realized that his teeth had silver all over them. I'm guessing that it was from trying to chew his way out of a cage for most of his young life - brought tears to my eyes. This little guy is just a little timid, not nearly as much as you'd think considering his past. Maybe he knows that he's been rescued. He is a darling boy - very affectionate. You should see him running free in the back yard. His coat is beautiful and my shave job didn't do much to detract from that. If you are a 'doxie person' come meet Beau. You will be as amazed as I am at what a wonderful little guy came from a sad life.
