Thank you for sharing that Rena. When our shitzhu died we only waited a few weeks and found Roxy and dh was very against it..until 1 hour after we got home and Roxy was curled up on his chest sound asleep! It was love from then on and Roxy was a perfect fit for our family. So now we are empty...

You guys are making me cry. It is such a weird feeling b/c one minute I am happy that Roxy is not suffering anymore and the next minute I am bawling wanting her back and hating myself for letting her go. Rena, I see you did not wait long to adopt another boxer. How was that for you? I am...

Roxy is gone. It was very peaceful. We got there and were all out at the car with her and the vet came outside and offered to do it in the car whenever we were ready so we didn't have to move her and make her uncomfortable. Roxy was ready. It was so fast and peaceful but still so incredibly...

Thank you all for your support. It has only been since Feb 14th. She is progressing so fast and every time we think it is a good day- the next is the worst day. She keeps begging to go in her cage and we don't know why b/c she never goes in there anymore. That is from when she was a puppy...

I will ask my vet about it but I don't think there is around here. We are in the middle of nowhere. We didn't get the wheelchair today- the lady selling it, cat was attacked by dogs last night and she got bit and had to put the cat down this morning so she is going to get it to us tomorrow.

She had a bad night of panting all night. Dh was up with her all night because he is home this week. At 430 I went and laid with her and she finally slept some. She wants to go go go and she is eating and drinking but she is hurting. Vet increased her tramadol because she wants to wait on...

We have had a great day with her. She has been getting up on her own and going to get water. She has eaten a little and we have taken her outside and she takes off lol. Dh has a towel under her and she just takes off to my parents that live right next door. I went in the other room and heard...

No her personality is the same loving girl. I think her legs are b/c she is not getting her pain meds right now. We aren't going to feed her at all today and hope the ulcer starts healing so we can give her something for her pain soon! She did good through the night and is just resting now...

Roxy isn't doing very good tonight. Her right leg is completely lame now and the left is about 75%. The right just drags along and she doesnt even try to move.it. She is throwing up and just sleeping all the time. She has blacked out twice and peed all over.

We had to take her back to the vet yesterday. Her mouth was a very pale pink almost white. She is anemic. Said she has an ulcer. So we had to stop one of her meds and they gave her 3 new ones to help with the ulcer. She blacked out twice today and fell over and started peeing but the vet...

Why is it progressing so fast? It is 3 am and Roxy just fell out of our bed. I jumped up and she was on the floor shaking/ don't know it is was a seizure or not but when I yelled out her name she stopped. Went to take her outside and she could barely walk down our hallway and stopped and...

Found out so many things are wrong with Roxy. First thing the vet pointed out was a condition called DISH. Her spine is fusing together/ making extra bone so there is a huge portion of her spine fused together and a couple small spots that it has not happened to yet. She said there is nothing...

Thank you all! I have wondered about DM but she just turned 4 this week so it seems like she is so young for that. I don't know what it is- just hoping for answers. Tuesday she was great and had a lot of energy and last night she did not want to do anything. I think she is just now realizing...

Roxy is 4 y/o. On Valentines Day we took her for a ride to get a treat and when she got out of the car we thought she hurt herself b/c she started limping. Called the vet and she said to wait a few days and see if she got better. Brought her in after a week and the limp getting worse. Vet...

Welcome! Dont feel bad about being anxious! I feel the same way. Im a nervous wreck that we may do something wrong and not train her right! Good luck to you! Post some pictures when you get a chance. I would love to see him!
