Yes, we get so nervous during New Year's and 4th of July. Jake, our blue heeler, has done some serious damage to himself because of fireworks. The first time we realized he was deathly scared of them we had gone out of town for the day on New Year's to visti family. When we returned home late...

My husband and I have been in your shoes before....twice.....one extreme and one a little less extreme. When Jake, our blue heeler was young, he had a little of everything....separation anxiety, boredom, and curiousity. He caused so much damage to my husband's college apartment....chewed...

LOL When I lived at home, for family entertainment, we would bring out the vacuum.....Bull, our macho male, would go crazy....not only would he attack it but he would grab the front and try to run away with it and better yet shake it crazy....he was so strong that it was hard to keep it in...

Yes, my female, Scarlett, had it too after she would urinate....the vet said it was normal but you never know....it wouldn't hurt to give your vet a call and just ask. My mom's dog (English Bulldog) had a similar thing happen and it ended up to be something more so you never know.

Help!!! My 10 week old is eating her dried up poop. She has been doing it since I got her and she won't stop. I've tried detering her and even picking up her poop but there is always one I miss and she finds it. Does anyone have any suggestions or reasons why she is doing this?

Birthday Surprise Just wanted to let everyone know that my husband surprised me with a beautiful fawn female boxer for my birthday. We were in the process of getting a reverse brindle when he surprised me with Gracie. She is absolutely precious. She will be 10 weeks on Tuesday and she is...

Welcome Hello, Welcome to BW.....we also live in Texas....Katy to be exact. It sounds like you have two cuties on your hands. I've had Boxers most of my life and love them dearly.....Enjoy!!!!

Hello, I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Kristi and I am a fellow boxer lover. I am in the process of adding to the family. My husband and I are hoping to bring home a reverse brindle female. I have never had a reverse brindle. Last summer we lost our beloved Scarlett(a...
