    Does your Boxer come when called?

    Too bad I couldn't vote 3 times, once for each of the girls! :D Dubless is really good, thankfully because she always gets out of the fence. smashicon Once she was a good mile out in the field opposite me. Luckily the wind was blowing in the right direction, so when I called her, she made...

    How many boxers do you have?

    How many boxers? I only have 3 boxers right now. :confused: Maybe I'm crazy, but I can't imagine what it was like when I only had Lady! It's amazing how even though these three are littermates, their personalities are so different. :D Their mother, Jazz, had a different pesonality than any...

    Just how big is your furbaby

    My girls are now just over 2 years old, and have just finished (probably) muscling up. They stand about 23 1/2" and range from about 58 to 62 pounds. Each are just about the perfect weight for their height. My biggest, Bula, was actually the biggest in her litter, but the other two have...

    White puppies put down?

    Please, let the breeder know why you won't buy a puppy from them! I believe culling is cruel, but there are some breeders out there who do still cull the whites because they always have. After getting to know me and my old white boxer Lady, a few of the Calgary breeders are not culling...

    Good Combination!!!!

    I have only ever owned female boxers, so don't know how mixing the sexes works. However, I had heard horror stories about two females together and the possibility of them fighting to the death. At one time, I had 4 female boxers in the house at the same time and they simply loved one another...

    Number of Boxers in your house

    Jazz was a real escape artist - nothing would keep her in the yard. She even managed to chew through a chain link fence after she couldn't get over it anymore at 7 feet, nor under it when we sunk it into the ground. She ended up being run over and had three broken legs. After learning that...

    Number of Boxers in your house

    I only have three boxers right now - they are littermates that I just couldn't sell (they're show quality) and now, after two years, there is no way I would (could) sell one. When Jazz had her litter and Lady was still with us, we were up to ten boxers - but that only lasted about eight weeks...

    3 Boxers?

    I had 4 boxers at one time until just over a month ago - more fun than you would believe, but it is an extra expense you have to be prepared for. I'm lucky in that I live in the country - they have a 2 acre back yard and miles of farmland if they get out. I am not able to walk my three young...

    Who has the oldest Boxer on Boxerworld???

    Sounds as though a lot of boxers are living longer now - thank goodness! I had to have my old girl put down on March 10 - she was 13 years old (born January 18, 1988). The amazing thing about her is that she was white, so they can also lead long lives! How about other older white boxers...

    Sleeping in our bed??

    Boxer in bed I would assume it's possible to train your boxer to sleep in the crate at night, even though you've let him on your bed. Personally, I share my bed with three 2 year old boxers and I've been sharing with a boxer (or more than one) for 13 years. Now, when I'm away from home, I...

    white boxers

    I had to put a white boxer down about a month ago, but only due to age. She was born on Jan 18, 1988 and we had 13 absolutely wonderful years together! I was lied to when I bought her - was told that I could show her (obviously I had not done any homework other than loving the breed!). In...
