You've got quite the brood of doxies. Mine was a short haired red - whose hair exactly matched mine. She followed me everywhere.
I've told this story before on this forum. My doxie absolutely loved to be in the water. I grew up along a river and if we were in the water, she was in the water. If we got in the boat and didn't take her, she'd swim out to us. When we were going to take a bath, we had to be sure the bathroom door was shut tightly else she'd come barreling in and jump right in the tub.
Another cute story about her -- I also had a cat, that my folks let have 1 litter of kittens before we had her spayed. My Doxie would babysit that litter of kittens when the momma cat went outside. She'd sit there and lick and nuzzle those kittens and then, ever so often, she'd pick each one up by their scruff and take them to the litter box, and then take them back to their bed, just like momma cat would do. She acted just like an old grandma with those kittens. We lived in the country, so the animals were free to come and go. When her dog friends would come around, she'd chase them off. When momma cat returned, she'd go on outside and play with her dog friends, again.
Oh, I have a bazillion more cute stories about that doxie. She was such a treat and so very smart.
