I hope you do know that doxies are known to have house training issues because they are very hard headed little dogs. My b/f's mom breeds them and is friends with a lot of other doxie breeders across the US and it's know that a lot of adult doxie's aren't completely house trained and it normally takes them around 7-9 months for most known doxie pup's to understand house breaking. I just hope you know what you are up for. Doxie's are cute and all and we all know puppies are but I just hope in another few months that you don't re home him because of any issues with stubbornness.
