    Lymphoma Questions (sorry long)

    I'm so sorry you are going through this. My boy was recently diagnosed. I have no advice, but wanted you to know that I am thinking of you all.

    my boy has lymphoma...any advice please

    Thank you everyone. I'm going to buy a big bag of Evo today and get him on it. I have fed it to them before but the cost was killing me with three boxers- they've all been on Canidae and doing well, but I need to do all that I can. We bought him a bunch of toys and he's been in hog heaven...

    my boy has lymphoma...any advice please

    My boy Bosco is 10 years old and was diagnosed with probable lymphoma. He has swollen lymph nodes in his neck and the vet recently found more on his body. She has put him on prenesone and said he has maybe 6 months. Everything I have read says 6 weeks. She does not recommend chemo. I...

    What if my dog doesn't like new dog?

    Even if they don't get along right off the bat, there still might be some hope. My boy Bosco goes crazy around dogs he doesn't know. I don't know what it is. He has had other dogs in his life and did fine- we also took him to dog parks when he was younger, training classes, no problem. It...

    I thought i'd lost both my boxers at easter

    I too understand your panic! Just 2 weeks ago a similar thing happened to me. We were sitting eating lunch and it hit me, where are the dogs??? I ran upstairs, no dogs, they certainly weren't in the back yard because you can see them. I immediately went out front and the gate was wide open...

    We found a stray boxer, at what point is she considered ours? LONG

    I would say she's yours! You have given her a happy home and cared for her. If someone tried to claim her, then shame on them. You have vet records to back up the fact that she is yours and has been in your care for a good period of time. I understand how you feel though. We adopted two...

    Curious what you feed your Boxers

    I feed mine Innova adult. I have been using Natura's dog foods for the past 10 years. I am very loyal to Innova and feel good about feeding it, although I am getting interested in feeding raw. I think raw is ideal. We'll see if I can pull it off!

    Innova feeders...a question

    How much do you pay for a 33lb. bag of regular Innova? I just went to a pet store and found it for 37$ and I was really suprised. I just visited my vet's clinic and checked- it is 45$ there. The problem is, the pet store I was at sells puppies, so my thrifty side is at odds with my ethical...

    Seizure or passed out?

    I'm so sorry, that must have been very scary. This is only my experience (for what it's worth, I can't tell you if it's typical or not). I had a boxer girl with cardiomyopathy and she would just drop and be out like a light for several seconds and then come to, panting a lot. She would not...

    Introducing myself...

    Hi everyone! I'm joining boxerworld once again- I visited here years ago, but don't remember my username. My husband and I got our first 'boxer' when we were in college ('97)- we were pretty ignorant at the time. We did do our research on dog breeds and decided that boxers were the dog...
