    Yogurt causes congestion?

    A few weeks ago I read here that if you fed your little one yogurt it would help with the gas issues. Chili has absolutely horrific gas problems. Well, I've noticed that he is really congested, he is snorting all the time. Is the yogurt causing this? I have decided not to give him any today. I...

    Poor boy! Neutering tomorrow...

    Gonna try.... I just called and they said my doc will be back at 4pm and to try back. He is well-aware that I am a worry-wart, so I'm sure he is expecting my call. Thanks for all the advice. You all are awesome!!

    price of a pup

    Have you thought of a rescue? I actually bought my pup for $400-$500, but once I familiarized myself with this site, I wish that I had done some research on Boxer Rescue. Although I wouldn't give Chili up to save my life, I wish I could open my home to more. Here's a website that may help you...

    Poor boy! Neutering tomorrow...

    Overnight?!?! I am so upset. I thought for some reason that since I dropped Chili off at 7AM that he could come home tonight. Now they inform me that they routinely keep him overnight. I just went up there to drop off his favorite toy and see how he is doing, and he is so wobbly I can't stop...

    Gas

    That is so funny. My BF and I will be sitting on the couch and we will both look at eachother and then look at him. He looks at us as if to say "..what?!? this is my place too and I can do whatever I want!" It really is stinky though. I am definetely going to try the yogurt thing...

    Poor boy! Neutering tomorrow...

    Don't apologize - that's exactly why I wanted to post.. Seriously, though, I'm glad you brought that to my attention. Thank you. I will call them today and make sure they don't use ACE on him. I appreciate the heads up. Thanks again!

    Poor boy! Neutering tomorrow...

    Hello all!! I have been a member of this site for some time, but usually just do searches to gather info. Poor Chili Baby is going into the vet tomorrow. She said not to feed him after 9 pm tonight (food OR water). Just wanted to see if anyone else out there had any other advice or warnings to...

    Too thin??

    I have been searching threads and have discovered that most puppies around 11 weeks weigh 15-20 pounds. Chili only weighs 10 or so. I wonder if this is healthy?? He has plenty of energy and eats (not so much in the morning, but in the evening he gobbles). Is this ok, and he will hit a growth...

    Stupid Commercial

    crate training

    treat? I have been crate training my little one. I could not ask for a better puppy. MOST of the time he is pretty good. I have a wire crate that I cover with a light weight white sheet during the day. (If he can see us, he will whine forever) I have little treats in there for him to have. A...

    Camping with my Boxer

    Texas Heat...UGH! I used to live in Texas, and I am fully aware of the heat. I have gone camping in the middle of August with a boxer, and she seemed to do well (especially is you are near water). We took Piper to the Guadalupe and she would just wade in the water--loving it. I think your baby...

    Puppy won't eat

    Ok, I have been searching through a ton of threads, and I am still not able to find exactly what I need. (Actually it may be the lack of patience I have-sorry!) I got little Chili on Friday. he has been a little sick, which I dismissed to adjusting to a new environment. The problem is that...
