My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nikki (16 lbs) and Jigger(20lbs)
6 year old male/female bonded Pair
Fostered in Raleigh area



Short list: Sweet, mostly housetrained, Jigger is blind, crate trained, good with calmer dogs, and cat friendly, good with kids over 12



Nikki and Jigger are a special duo looking for a home where they can share their unique bond and brighten your days. Sadly, their owner recently died and find themselves looking for a new five star forever family.



Nikki is the outgoing, lively spirit of the pair. With her playful nature, she’s always ready to jump into your lap for cuddles and affection. She’ll bring a smile to your face with her energetic personality and love for playtime!



Jigger, despite being mostly blind, doesn't let anything hold him back. He’s independent, confident, and loves to be close to you without being intrusive. Jigger enjoys the security of knowing you’re near and loves it when you rub his back or scratch his head. Because of his blindness, he needs a little more care when being picked up—go slow and gentle, and he’ll be all yours!



This dynamic pair gets along well with calmer dogs who respect Jigger’s space and are easygoing like Nikki. Jigger is not a fan of energetic dogs that get in his face. Got cats? No problem – they are feline friendly. They’re crate-trained, walk well on a leash, and are mostly housetrained, making them a great addition to a home that values both comfort and consistency.



Nikki and Jillare UTD on shots, neutered, heartworm negative, microchipped, and started on preventions. They both are altered and recently had a dental cleaning. Thier new family will need to drive to Raleigh to adopt them – no transports. We prefer to adopt to families in NC, VA, or SC. To get the process started, fill out an application at www.doxiebyproxy.org/application



If you're looking for a pair of loving, loyal companions who are as sweet as they are heartwarming, Nikki and Jigger are ready to meet you!
