    Do Boxers remember??????

    Do Boxers remember a dog if they didn't get along with it in the past? Here's my scenario: I had just rescued my newly neutered 2 year old Boxer Cass around July 1 2002. He was getting along with my then 6.5 month old Boxer puppy Jake just fine. My brother came to visit for the 4th of July...
