Paul,
Depending on the type of riding you do you have a couple of options. If I recall, the 'Dawg' is a trail bike right?
The Sherman line from Manitou looks nice. Super stiff and superior damping qualities. I think that they've got a lockout so you can go from 4 to 5 inches or vice versa. http://www.answerproducts.com
If you want Marzocchi and single crown, go for something like the z1 series. I had a 2001 Dropoff on my old hardtail and it was the best single crown fork I've ever had. If you've got hydraulic brakes, think about going with a 20mm qr20 axle for added stiffness. If you want a double clamp, go Super T. I run last year's Monster T, but that's too much fork for epic style rides.
Stay away from Rock Shox. Maintenance levels typically are higher than Marzocchi...
Holy long post.
