Moxie came into my life when I was living in Dallas - she was just about one year old. In her 14 years she lived with me in Texas, Florida, NYC, San Francisco and her final home was in Washington DC.
Mox loved to play with smaller dogs (always gentle with them), chase squirrels and rabbits and go for hikes when we lived in San Francisco. She hated water but loved chasing the waves as they hit the beach.
Moxie became the unofficial mascot of a school I taught at in San Francisco for 3 years. She loved to hang out with the students and chase the squirrels and gophers during lunch breaks.
In her final two years arthritis got the best of her. It broke my heart to see her struggling so much near the end.
She was a good girl.
I'll miss her a lot.
