Linda, I am relieved for both Abby and yourself. You gave her the opportunity to leave this earth knowing that she had a home and a family that loved her. She was a lucky girl in my book. You and Abby will always hold a special place in my heart...firstly because even though I know what you...

Hi Linda, I was the one that evaluated Abby from the rescue. I am very sorry to hear that things are not going well. Just remember that everything happens for a reason and it was obvious to me that Abby loves you guys so think of yourselves as her little Angels, sounds like she probably...

It was the best thing we ever did. We got a 7.5 week old female when our male was around 7 months. The first two months were H@!! but after that it's been a breeze. Definately much more expensive, but as far as the actual "work" involved, we haven't found it much different. And they LOVE one...

We would love to get together too. We have a one year old and a 6 month old. My email is j_stewart@comcast.net. I have noticed that my little one is very dominant with dogs her age. We're working on it though.

MA Dog Park Hi, We take our Boxers to Callahan State Park in Framingham. Not fenced in, but it's something like 400 or 4000 acres. 4 or five huge fields, a large pond, and trails through the woods. They love it! It's considered a "Dog Park." Everyone takes their dogs there and no leashes...

I'd say brindle We have two kids and they are almost exactly the same color, but 6 months apart in age. Whenever we go to the dog park with them it is almost impossible to tell them apart from a distance. It wasn't so hard when one was 9 months and the other 3 months, but the older they get...

:eek: One of my favorite traits, although not the one the most desired is when my Ellie (5 months) sits down or stands in the most bold stubborn position after given a command. I swear she is saying "Unless you have some prime rib for me I am NOT moving from this spot." She has done this since...

Mine too... Our 8 month old was just like that when we took him home at 3.5 months. Just takes a lot of time and patience to get him out of it. Shoot me an email if you want specifics on what worked for Jake... Johana

Thanks Thank you. That made me feel better about the situation. I guess just keep up our positive reinforcement and hope for the best.

Hi, My 12.5 week old Boxer (Ellie) has been showing some signs of aggression since we took her home at 8 weeks. She is normally very friendly and loving for the most part, but every once in a while I will go to pick her up and she will growl and sometimes snap. She also will occassionally do...

Hi, My name is Johana and we have two wonderful Boxers, Jake @ 8 mos and Ellie @ 12.5 weeks. I saw this site and think it's great so I decided to join. Hope everyone enjoyed thier Holidays!! Johana, Jake and Ellie
