Thanks everyone! Cami, Logan is 64lb. The vet said to give him 1mg per pound twice a day so going by that I'd actually be slightly under dosing him. This was before surgery though. She actually said I could stop giving it to him, but all of the research I've done says to keep giving it to him...

I haven’t posted pics of my guys in a long, long time. Here are some new shots. First, Mason who we lost on 8/20/14. We’re still coping with his loss, but we are thankful and at peace knowing he’s not in any pain anymore. He put on quite a bit of weight because of the meds he was in...

Well, I feel like a dope now! I just noticed the rules are actually the first link on the forum. I honestly have no clue how I missed it there. I spent most of my time looking in the FAQ page and somehow over looked it. Again I apologize. Apparently my eyesight is going with my age.

Thanks! I'm doing everything I can to try to help them. It seems like every boxer I own I experience a different health issue with them. Riley was ARVC, Mason was Insulinoma, Logan's is mast cell tumors, so far Abby has been good. Hopefully she's not hiding anything up her sleeve! Sorry to...

On 9/8/14 I brought Logan in to have a couple of lumps looked at. One I thought might be a bug bite and the other I was certain was a lipoma. Well, the vet aspirated both and told me what I did NOT want to hear. The bug bite was clean, but the “lipoma” was actually a mast cell tumor. Surgery was...

Thanks everyone. We all knew it was time for him. It has helped us to make peace with the situation, but the hardest part, for me anyway was that he still had all of his faculties in check. He was very alert and knew what was going on around him. He had slowed down with his age, but aside from...

Mason (5/8/03 – 8/20/14) It’s been ages since I’ve posted. A lot has changed and not for the better. On 8/20/14 I had to make the decision we all dread and I let Mason go. He was diagnosed in early Feb with Insulinoma which is a condition where he had tumors on his pancreas which caused...

Well, if anyone's at least interested in seeing pics of her, here you go... Flickr: Archive of MHouston10's photostream: Taken on 24th October 2012

Long story short, as of this past Friday (10/19) we have a new puppy at our house. She's a semi/flashy brindle female named Abby and she's 4.5 months old. She came from a great breeder who shows, does health testing, etc. She was the last puppy from her litter and nobody seemed to want her for...

Pam, I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your Autry. It's alway so difficult especially when you're not expecting it. It sounds like you definitely did the right thing by setting him free. I'm sure he's running free and back to his old silly self once again.

Thank you guys! Pam, Mason may be 9, but he keeps himself very active so he's still very young for his age. LOL Danielle, I use a Canon T3i. Logan is definitely learning a few things from his big brother. :)

I'm so sorry to hear about what has happened to Autry. My thoughts are with you.

It has been ages since I've posted pics of my boys. For that I apologize! Here's a link to some photos that I took on 9/26/12. Flickr: Archive of MHouston10's photostream: Taken on 26th September 2012 Now for an update on the boys. Mason first... He's almost 9 years and 5 months old now and...

My boy Logan was $1,500 plus $350 to fly him from AZ to NH. His parents are both show dogs. His mother has not finished yet, but his dad got his GCH title shortly after the litter was whelped. Both were health tested extensively, which I also wanted. In my search I found that the majority of...

Riley was known for having a dry cracked nose. I put cocoa butter on it and it always cleared up very quickly. I put it on him right before bed time so he'd tend to ignore it all night long.
