    We were asked to leave a flea market-VENT

    I know it is corporate policy to allow dogs in Bed, Bath and Beyond and I believe in Home Depot. I'm sure there are plenty of others as well.

    Liverwurst

    ShannonL and any other New Yorkers, McSorley's Ale House downtown makes excellent Liverwurst sandwiches and the ambience isn't too bad either.

    anal gland expression

    Thank you for your help. It was an abcessed gland and he is now on an oral antibiotic for ten days and a topical one as well. He received a steroidal injection for inflammation and an oral painkiller and is now sleeping quietly. You guys nailed it on the head. Thanks again.

    anal gland expression

    We have an appointment for the vet today. The area was swollen and erupted on its own. It all occurred within 24 hours. I can't believe how quickly it came to head. He doesn't seem to be bothered by it at all. I'll keep you posted.

    anal gland expression

    Since I agree with PawPrintBoxers on the ewwwww factor, is it detrimental for his health or well-being to wait until Friday to go to the Vet??

    anal gland expression

    I believe my dog's anal gland requires expressing. However, this being the day before Thanksgiving, I'm not sure if I will be able to get it expressed in the next 36 hours. Is this OK or should we go to the emergency vet?!

    Need advice on 2nd Dog

    I recently (9 mos. ago) adopted a 7 yo fixed male boxer as a companion for my 3 yo fixed male boxer. My younger one also had separation anxiety which has disappeared completely since getting a companion. At the time, we also looked at Dobie's because I think they're beautiful, but after...

    Driving with Uncrated Dogs Illegal??

    But the cops said they must be crated, not just seat-belted in.

    Driving with Uncrated Dogs Illegal??

    My wife was driving in NYC with our two boxers in the back seat and was pulled over by the police. They informed her that it was illegal to be transporting uncrated dogs. They let her go with a warning, but I have never heard this before. Does anybody have any insight into this?

    can I adopt a male if I already have one?

    I adopted a 7 yo male about 6 mos. ago. My 3 yo male and he are best friends and have never had an issue. My 3 yo is quite dominant but they've definitely figured out their relationship. It really is the best thing we've ever done, both dogs are soooo happy.

    boxer nails and leather seats

    I have leather seats with no covers and have not had any problems with scratches or punctures. However, I still wish I had covered the seat because it gets dirty very quickly and if I make a sharp turn, my two pups have no traction and go sliding.

    Your boxer's worst habit?

    No matter how much of my apartment is hardwood floors, the dogs will ALWAYS find a nice corner of an area rug to vomit on.

    spat between adoptee and original boxer

    I am a bit confused about a recent development between my two boxers. A bit of back ground first. We have had Prince, our first boxer for 2.5 years. He is a neutered 3 y.o. male. We adopted Colors, a 7 y.o. neutered male, in January. Although we were expecting some acclimation and fighting...

    Opinions on discount websites for heartworm preventative?

    I order Sentinel for both of my dogs over the internet. Actually, I usually get them from Australia. I have never had any problem or worries concerning this medication. They arrive in the original manufacturers packaging so I'm sure they haven't been tampered with and I'm getting exactly what...
