Here is a thread that I had going for a while. http://www.boxerworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139935 My dog gets like that too and its only when he wakes up from sleeping. It happened again a week and a half ago, too. This time it seems to be his back left hip. I took him back to the vet...

Okay great, thanks a lot! :)

My dog, since day one really, has been trying to chase his tail. He doesn't get too far-- he's a puppy and can't quite reach around and lick. But i'm wondering why he does this-- is he trying to itch? to lick? to bite? He tries to bite the tip of his tail. Now when I took him to the vet for...

At 5 weeks (12/11/08) he was first vaccinated. He was still with the breeder at this point, so i'm not sure if he had any reactions. He was a very lethargic puppy when I went to see him, and before he 'gained his personality'. He got Distemper-Hepatitis, Leptospirosis, Parainfluenza, Canine...

:/ I was feeding him Purina Little Bites. Lately he hasn't seemed to like it, so I just (today) switched to IAMS proactive healthy puppy. He ate it all up. Do you have any suggestions how much I should feed him? I'm feeding him about 3/4 cup/scoop 2 to 3 times a day, depending if he's...

im in a very similar situation! Hey please keep me posted. I just posted on this forum "3 painful legs, possible HOD" Go read it... it may help... I am going now to look up displastic to see if it fits my dog's. But he is only 11 wks! :(

His eyes are so vibrant!

This is a little long winded but I wanted to give as much detail as possible. Last Wednesday I was having dinner and my 10wk old pup (Kaiser, male) laid down to nap beside me. We ate, and he probably layed there for about 10 to 15 minutes. When he got up, he had a limp. I thought it might be...

Hello from Pennsylvania! Kaiser is my 11 wk old fawn boxer and i'm Alyse. We're from central PA around Harrisburg. He's a sweetie... smart! Within the first few days I got him he knew how to sit and associated it with a hand movement, stay, and used the puppy training pads when I couldn't...
