Dachshund Maltese Mix - Moxie

We had a wonderful little Dachshund Maltese mix female that was a great companion to our male Dachshund Skippy -- he loved her -- always snuggling with her and cleaning her ears.

We had our Dachshund Maltese for less than two years. She was a jumper and loved to fly off of anything she could climb upon. We had to put her down after she contracted IVDD -- that spinal problem that Dachshunds are susceptible to.

It was heart-wrenching to lose her and my 13 year old son is still not over her death.

I highly recommend the Mauxie breed because Moxie's personality was awesome. She was a complete love and had a feisty attitude. God, was she a cutie! Just don't let them jump!!!
