Gorgeous WHAT a pretty baby! Judging from those feet, he's going to end up being a good-sized boy. Thanks for sharing the great pics!

Hello! Hello Bella and Bella's mommy! Like you, I am a new returnee to BW and have a girl who is close to the same age and starting to show some mild aging signs. Scary when we want them to live forever. All the best...

Greetings! Hi Tim, and welcome! You do realize, I imagine, that statistically, the average Boxer life span is generally shorter than that of a lab. The stats seem to be skewed a bit by the high cancer and cardiomyopathy rates amongst Boxers. Also, has your new white been hearing tested? Is...

Aloha, Jeff! Welcome! Glad to see you are preparing. It is not easy to find really good breeders anywhere. Don't be discouraged. The number one is meeting the puppy's parents. They should be on-site, appearing in good health, happily social and not confined in small areas/cages. Do not...

Welcome! Welcome and congratulations! Be sure you dog-train your son as well. So important. Boxers are wonderful family dogs!

Yes, Please! Welcome, congratulations and definitely, pictures please! Oh, what joy is a Boxer puppy. Be prepared to laugh and smile every day. (And you will survive and recover from the teeth-gritting moments just fine.) :D

No, Not Your Typical Dog Welcome, and thank you for giving me a chuckle! I've had many dogs throughout my life, and I'm not sure I could do anything but Boxer now. Dull they are not. Don't strap in too tightly--it's an awesome ride!

Have You Tried a Fundraiser or Grant There are fundraiser sites on which you could post your need. It helps to get friends and family on board to kick it off. There are also foundations where you can apply online to get help with vet bills. A dog off food must be seen promptly.

Feel Your Pain Thanks, MichBoxerMom, and welcome to yourself as well. I love BW and really missed it during the years gone...such a wealth of information, and dog people are the best! Yes, the Boxer system can be pretty sensitive. I'm transitioning mine over to a grain-free food. I'm just...

First off, I will say this is not our first time on BoxerWorld. My Emma and I were members years ago, and a major move due to family illness and life change simply made keeping up impractical. It has been five years since my father passed, and another major move has us slowly returning to some...
