    Hello From Indiana

    Thanks for the Warm Welcome's Back Thank You for your warm wishes. I am just around the corner in Bunker Hill! Sophie is sitting right here beside me on a kitchen chair, head drooping, about to fall off the chair! (napping) Her Daddy gets home from work at 2 and she will watch constantly now...

    Hello From Indiana

    Hi, This is Boxerpat from Indiana. We have been with Boxerworld for a few years, but don't get on as often as we would like. We still have our baby "Sophie" and she will be 4 this coming August. She has been such a joy for my husband and I and keeps us laughing most all the time. Just wanted to...

    Sophie the Queen of Puffs

    Oh boy, I am so glad that my Sophie isn't the only puffs junkie! foolicon She also likes the dryer sheets, but if she can get to the dryer lint that I toss in the trash, well...that is the ultimate top-dog treat around here! We do have a trash can with a lid, but she has learned to tip the lid...

    Sophie the Queen of Puffs

    With the grass pollen count sky-high here in Indiana, we all have the sniffles and are going through the boxes of kleenex like crazy. Sophie has turned into the stalker of kleenex. If one of us happens to lay one down, she stalks in, hits, grabs, and takes off super fast to run under one of the...

    What tricks do your boxers know?

    Sophie does a few tricks, but it really seems to humiliate her! She gives this big huff-puff, snort thing when we ask her to do something. (Of course, with a small treat in our hand) She will do the usuals, sit, stay, speak, sing, roll-over, play dead, (I hate the name of that one) do circles...

    Drinking from birdbath

    We have a bronze bird bath and Sophie thinks it's just for her. I try to clean it everyday and put fresh water in it just for that reason. She too, has her own water bowl outside (actually it's one of those hospital plastic dish pan things.) But she prefers the birdbath. Hubby says because it's...

    Am I being crazy?? Need help here

    We too, live in Indiana and I don't hear much of "dog-napping" in our rural area. Sophie, like your baby, pretty much gets to roam free around our place and she is fairly good about her "limits." One day she was laying out in the orchard, rolling around and scratching her back, acting her usual...

    Stuck in his crate...I'm still crying

    :( Poor little Maxx, So sorry this happened to him. He must have been horrified. My thoughts are that he will go back to his crate just fine. He is safest in it, really, while you are gone or sleeping, (unless he decides to try to get out) they can really get into trouble or hurt if...

    Sophie-Our Recycler

    I went out to do my weekly chore of picking up Soph's "leavings" and guess what I found? foundicon I found fiber filling (toy stuffing) all fluffed up and sticking out of one pile, a cigarette butt in another, and a kleenex in another! Ah-Ha, Sophie you are caught! I came in and checked her...

    boxers for protection??

    Our house is very quiet as it's just hubby, me and Soph. A loud noise will scare her to death! foolicon I have only seen her give a warning growl once, it kind of unnerved me as she had never done this before. I got up and turned on all the outside lights, (we live rural) and didn't see anything...

    White boxers!!!!

    We don't have a white boxer yet. Our Sophie is 2yrs and 7 months and we brought her home at 8 weeks. We have had a few health issues with her and she is fawn. But whatever crops up we will deal with. We have had folks ask us if she is pit bull or mean. We just giggle at them and proceed to tell...

    Be On The Look Out

    I am so glad that this vile human is in jail. But what is worse, is that he won't get what is really deserved here on earth. My heart aches because you know he probably tortured and hurt her many times before he finally killed her. I hope he likes the fires of hell because that is where he will...

    Boxer in Your Bed?

    Sophie likes to snuggle for awhile, but really prefers her own bed in her crate. She has her own blankies and nite-nite toys that she likes to lay on. She'll jump up, go to her crate and stand inside till one of us takes her a piece of cheese, then it's off to doggy la-la land.
