    Loose Stools, Vomiting, in excess of one month!

    IMO this does sound like a food allergy. If there were two fecals done and there was no sign of parasites, and blood work didn't show anything.....? IAMS is not a high quality food. There are GREAT posts on this website about the different foods, and what ones are low & high quality. I'm...

    Dew Claw Removal

    *SIGH*...What a day I had yesterday....Sunday afternoon, Angel (5 yr. old female) was jumping up on my fence, and one of her front dew claws ripped. I clipped off what I could, stopped the bleeding and bandaged it up. She seemed to be in pain, but it was later on in the afternoon, and I gave...

    Dominate behavior or just normal Boxer?

    Hahahahaha...Explorer that sounds hilarious! I could totally picture that in my head!! Last night, my 6 month old male; Bing, climbed up on the couch to nap. He plops down just about ANYWHERE he can curl his little body! Needless to say, last night he plopped himself on top of the BF, with...

    Dominate behavior or just normal Boxer?

    Hi Explorer, My 5 year old female (Angel) used to do the same thing! She sat practically on top of me, and when we are sleeping she always has to be touching me. I don't think it is a dominanace issue, I agree with the link that Lafsalot posted that it is more of an attention seeking...

    Teaching an Old dog new tricks???

    Thank you for the positive thoughts and stories! I am feeling optimistic that Angel can get along with other dogs, they just have to be introduced in a neutral, non-threatening environment. Angel is VERY protective of me, more so than the BF. I will keep you updated on her progress!! Hugs...

    Teaching an Old dog new tricks???

    Hi everyone, I have been feeling a little guilty lately. Angel (my 5 year old spayed female) has always been a little aggressive with other dogs, to the point that I cannot take her to off-leash parks. She does socialize with her "pack" that go out together 3-4 times a week, so she does have...

    Older Dog, taking puppy's toys, HELP!!! (long)

    You know you're 100% right, I should think of the resources as mine and not Angels. Angel had a rough first 6 months of her life, she was living in an abusive household, and I think I tried to overcompensate for that. She is a sweetheart with everything else except this one issue. As I said...

    Older Dog, taking puppy's toys, HELP!!! (long)

    Ok...I have a 4.5 year old spayed female named Angel. We just brought home our new addition a week ago, a 8 week old male puppy named Bing. Angel was a little wary of him at first, but now she likes playing with him. We are having a problem with toys. There's two stuffed toys, that Angel...

    Boxer/Pitbull confusion

    I've heard the exact same things with my brindle female. I live in a townhouse, backing onto a Lake, and there's a bike path, needless to say I have a lot of foot/bicycle traffic behind my house. Whenever Angel is in the backyard, no matter what she's doing, I see people point, and "scurry"...

    Bringing a puppy home soon!!!

    Thank you for all of your advice and congratulations!!! I think the introduction on neutral territory is a great idea, as well as the blanket smell!! I am 99% sure Angel will be fine, but there is always that little doubt in my mind, just because she has been agressive with other adult dogs in...
