It's almost been a year since we lost our dog Joker to hemangiosarcoma. Since I was lurking this forum for months before I even got Joker, and used it over the years with her, I figured it would be appropriate to write about her here. This forum has been so useful during the awesome years I had...

Taken two years ago during one of Joker's last summers. I lost her last July and I'm still having trouble with her loss. She was honestly the best dog and I was very fortunate to have her as a friend.

Bad news So things took a turn for the worse. After a few more x-rays of Joker's abdomen, the radiologist found a lump on her spleen. It appears to have gotten a little larger than the last x-ray on the 19th of last month. They want to do an ultrasound to see what's going on and if anything has...

Update. It's Addison's disease.

I don't know what to do. Joker, my 7 year old boxer, was taken to the emergency vet a few weeks ago because we found her pale, cold, and lethargic one morning. After a few tests and overnight hospitalization, we got her on antibiotics for about two weeks. Turns out it was a severe kidney...

I'm so excited! My dog Joker (6 yr old flashy fawn female) is starting her advanced obedience classes on Oct 18th. It's designed to prepare her for her CGC and TDI certifications. Joker's always been a well behaved dog and has always done really well in public, especially with small children. I...

We tried the houses, but a lot of them are either unavailable or don't like the idea of people as young as us living there *shrugs*. We are getting a place in the spring as soon as my roomie/brother that's in the Navy get's home. For now, I actually called that nice complex back and the manager...

I've had her for four years and boxers weren't much of a worry awhile ago (I had family who rented and had boxers) but now what's happening, I found out, is that most appartment places don't want to bother telling the difference between breeds, because apperantly the pitt owners are trying to...

I have been at my wit's end all month! My father's house, where my roomates and I have been staying to keep it clean while it's for sale, has now been bought. Unfortunatly, the family is giving us until the 30th to find an apartment. It's hard enough that we're still college students that are...

Joker and my late cat Tofu. My boxer simply adores cats and other small animals, it's amazing how gentle she is.

My name is Ciara and I'm from Arlington, WA. I have a 4 yr old fawn female named Joker and it was actually this forum that helped me a lot when she was still a puppy. Took me awhile to register eh? lol
