    Calculating age for a new rescue????

    Heya all, Thought I would throw this question out to those with infinitely more experience than us: We just rescued a female boxer from the local humane society...and it has been 100% perfect in every way we could have hoped for. Knock wood...she's EXCEPTIONAL with all members of the...

    Update..Please post weight and age of your dog

    Java Joe is 1.5 years old and weighs 50lbs. Chickory is 3 years old, and weighs 53lbs. Me thinks Joey is gonna get about 10-15 more lbs on him by the time he's another year into the game.

    Java Joe and Chickory...ready to ring in 2011....

    Joey is our 1.5 year old, that we've had since he was a wee pup. Chickory is our 3-year old (we think) girl that we just rescued yesterday. House is now full for 2011...and hopefully for a long time thereafter!!

    Considering a rescue...would love to hear some advice.

    Thanks much!! My wife and I have this minor addiction thing going on when it comes to coffee. "Java" speaks for itself, I believe...as does "Joe." "MOAC" stands for "Mother Of All Coffees," and was a severe habit of mine during a recent deployment to the middle east. The number one...

    Considering a rescue...would love to hear some advice.

    INITIAL SUCCESS!!!!!!!! The meet and greet went absolutely flawless! The intro was on neutral ground, away from both home and the humane society cages. The two were on leash at first, and took about ten minutes to sort each other out. From there, they went to a large fenced area to move...

    Hello, all. New member here!!!

    My wife and I agreed to dig up some of Joey's good pictures and post them up. The camera flash started going off the day we brought him home...and has been going off constantly ever since. It really is amazing to see how he's grown up over the last year. As of now...he's 25" at the...

    Considering a rescue...would love to hear some advice.

    Thank you all so much for the inputs thusfar. All were good points, and all will be taken into consideration. Just got a call from the Humane Society. The family "ahead of us" changed their mind, and we were informed that the girl is ours, if we want her. They told me the next step in the...

    Considering a rescue...would love to hear some advice.

    Heya, all. I just signed on for a BoxerWorld account, and posted my introduction this morning. I thought I'd take advantage of some "down time" at work to pose a fairly pressing question that I need objective answers to. My wife and I have three kids, ages 2, 4, and 7. We also have a...

    Hello, all. New member here!!!

    Good moring, and happy (almost) New Year!! I have been a lurker on this site for the last year and a half...give or take a few days. We used Boxerworld as a research tool before getting our baby boy - Java Joey Moac. If the name doesn't give you a clue...my wife and I are slightly addicted...
