style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:purple'>I have been
reading how some of your bassets have been confused as doxies, wiener dogs or
beagles, and I have heard the same for my girls from time to time. I,
too, correct them. Especially when they call them beagles (my girls have shorter
legs, deeper voices, longer ears is what I usually tell those people).
Anyways – this all got me to thinking about a doxie mix that we met at
the dog park the other night. He is a Dachshund Rottweiler mix!! (I’m
hoping mom was the Rotti!!) Anyways – same coloring as a rot with
the body style of a doxie that is on steroids! What a cutie! I think
they said he weighed 40 pounds! <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
