    mitaban dip

    Wow, I didn't know it was taken off the market a year ago. When Rocco was treated w/ Mitaban for his demodex it was a couple of years ago. He turns 3 in March and hasn't had another episode since. I hope there are many other option now, hopefully Rocco and I won't have to find out what they are...

    mitaban dip

    Ivermectin I heard that Mitaban was bad b/c you are basically dipping your dog in a poison (to kill the mites), but then I also heard that ivermectin was bad too b/c it can affect your dogs internal organs such as his/her liver, etc. So how can we win? I took my dog to 3 different vets and they...

    Appropriate age to spay female Boxer mix?

    I think it would be better for her to stay at the clinic too. If anything were to happen, what better place to be...and I'm sure they will be constantly looking after her. I got my boxer/lab mix for an animal shelter and before I could take her home she had to be spayed (8 weeks). The day I came...

    drooling

    Boxers are known to drool - My boy is 2 years old and as soon as I say the word "treat" he starts to drool. We'll be in the kitchen to get his treat and as soon as I turn around to give it to him, he's already sitting in a pool of drool. He'll have blubbles coming from his mouth...its funny, but...

We adopted a 8 week old Lab/boxer mix from our local animal shelter. Her name is Sammy and she looks just like a lab but with brindle markings. She's...

    Sits on other Boxer

    Rocco does the same thing to my mom's dog. He just sits on his head. And in the morning, sometimes, when he's just playing around he sits on us too.:D
