	April and I are pretty bald there too. We are short-haired Doxies, so maybe that's why.

	may be genes. Mom has 3 short haired doxies, I am BALD on my belly, My older brother Henry has some hair on his belly, and my younger brother Pete still has alot of hair on his belly, but it is getting thinner. He is about 15 months old. I did not have alot when I was a pup (I am just 2, and lost it about a year ago.) Pete had very thick hair until recently. Mom hears most are bald, at least short haired doxies. Do Not worry about balding bellies.....that makes us all special! DOXIES RULE!!!!!!!
