Thanks eveyone ,Cassie was fine the next evening and loves me again,she is back to normal and trying to stop her from doing to much while she has her staples in is the problem.She has't tried to lick them so far so we have't put one of these big collars on and I hope we don't have to.We had her...

Cassie was spayed yesterday and she went to the vets so excited and full of beans ,but when we collected her she would'nt even look at me ,she was so quiet all nmight and lay in bed facing the wall ,which she never does, the vet gave me painkilling syrup and herbal arnica tablets to help ,she...

A girl in training classs has a brindle boy calle Thumper after the rabbit in bambi, because when he scratches his ear his paws thump off the floor.We called our female cassie after casius clay the boxer how about Henry after Henry cooper the british boxer I think it sounds very regal for a dog.

That is such a fuuny story ,its amazing what dogs will do for kids, I must try the french fry thing on Cassie and see if it works.

Cassie is my first boxer and a flashy fawn, I must admit I did't like brindles at all, but I had't met any .Since then at training class I have met a brindle and I think he is lovely and would not hesitate again he is exactly the same in temperament as Cassie only a different colour ,the same as...

I suppose we are lucky in Scotland with not having extreme temperatures.But at the moment it is after 10pm and snowing ,it is freezing ,and Cassie wants out in the back garden every two minutes ,she loves playing in the snow and I can't get her to come in .I keep saying boxers don't like cold...

Yeh Thanks Dan although hubby did want a german shepherd dog and every time sshe does something wrong he'll joke and say my GS would have been more intelligent than that , but he loves her as much as I do and I think we made the right choice of dog as you could'nt get a more loving one!!

Dan my Cassie and old cross breed Tess swap bowls all the time I never know who's getting what I just hope they will work it out.Its good for the older dog as she's 13 and never had to share. Are you thinking of getting another boxer? Cassie has always been used to tess being ther and frets if...

Jumping a six foot fence? I didn't realise they could jump that high,I don't think Cassie knows yet either, I hope she's not reading this!!!!!!Hope you get fixed up soon with something else. Doggie day care eh! us brits have a lot to catch up on we''re alsways a step behind ,its a great idea!!!

Cassie loves yogurt I stated by giving her a teaspoonful, but now she would eat a carton she loves it so much but usually about two to three tablespoons,and I have found that her gas is not so smelly when she's had yogurt.Its also good for their dijestion as it puts good bacteria back into the gut.

Well we have just had Cassie to her second training class, she wasn't quite so good as her first but the hall was very hot and she was exhausted.All the dogs in beginners are the same age as her 8mths so the had a great time ,Cassie met another Boxer for the first time and the took to each other...

Cassie is 7 mths and not very good at coming back to me outside, although we have now started training classes and hopefully they will work. What I do now is , because she is very good at sit and stay ,if she won't come to me I shout Cassie sit ...stay..them come cassie... a bit of a roundabout...

Thanks Alisha and eveyone for your advice.We are just back from Cassie's first class and she was wonderful ,the best in the classof all the beginners, it was noticable that we had been training her at home. She loved the other dogs and got on just fine with them.Unfortunately the boxer wasn't...
