I'm new to the boxer thing, but I'm going through some of the same things with my boxer. But I read what you posted and hope it wont be a bad thing for me to comment on some of it. With that in mind... You said your puppy is 16 weeks... so he's still very young. Mine is 14 weeks, but he is...

I'll definitely take that into consideration, most times I do give it a try but I never force it. Really burns me though when someone calls my dog a chicken because he doesn't want to be petted by them. Some people have no patience for any dog that doesn't just instantly love them. I like...

It is so good to know I am not alone in this action, and I agree, it's nice to know it's a puppy thing that he will grow out of.... Mine goes for the ankles and calfs too... It seems the older he gets the more he pushes to see how far he can get. It's like I said though, the more he gets his...

Unfortunately the training classes around here cost over 100 dollars which is more than my budget allows since I'm gonna be spending the money I am to get him his rabies shot, neutered, and chipped all at once. So I have to save up in order to take him, otherwise I would be taking him right...

Oh I know 14 weeks is young. While he's not my first dog ever, he is my first boxer, as well as the first puppy I've ever had at this young so I'm still figuring things out as I go. But I've continuously doing my research and I'm big on routines which helps a lot. As for the walking on the...

Okay, so normally my Boxer, Beau is a wonderful dog. He sleeps all night, walks decently enough on the leash... (yes he still reacts to strangers, either pulling back or trying to pull towards them, but he's normally controllable when that happens and has been getting better.) He's no longer...

I feel so much better knowing that it's a boxer thing and it's just play not aggression. this is my first time raising a Pup so young, so it's good to know that it'll actually take a few months of the turn away and ignore, before it'll start to kick in. I was mistakenly under the impression...

Beau is 13 weeks old, 18lbs, and normally rather calm, but when he plays he plays hard. Usually he does fine if no one is interacting with him play wize... He'll tos his own toys and chase them.. something i find adorable... But when myself or my daughter try to play with him he becomes a not...

Thank you both for the warm welcome. Yes, GDOGS, short of something happening to me, this is definitely his Forever home, and we love him to pieces... But it's definitely a learning process, so I'm definitely gonna be seeking advice in the right location of the forums. I am working with him...

Once upon a time there was a man who owned a male and female boxer. How he had acquired these dogs I have no clue, but they were neither papered nor tested for breeding, nor were they fixed. You see this man had decided, rather stupidly, to not get them fixed. Well as would be expected the...
