My almost 4 year old boxer has a boil like blister in the crease where upper and lower front arms meet. She had been paying more attention to that area recently before the boil appeared.... any thoughts?

On the bags of food they say that you should feed your dog puppy food until a year of age. I have read in many forums that people make the switch earlier.. what are the benefits in switching early? Second, Sox loves pig ears... but I hear that they aren't the best thing for her stomach. Is...

Are there any specific allergies that boxers are more prone too?

Has anyones baby ever had Scabies? And if so how long after given the medication(Starts with an I) did it start to clear up? Thank you

Sox doesn't mind it Sox can swim in short bursts. She gets tired real easyily. My wife and I were thinking that maybe it has to do with the amount of muscle the boxers have on them naturally that makes it harder for them to swim.

My husband and I are just curious as to how big a boxer should/could be at 6 months. When do they reach their full growth? We love Sox, and of course don't mind at all if she's on the smaller side of things.... we're just curious to see where most pups are at her age??

Of course these things always happen when the vet isn't open... Sox has been scratching herself so badly today, that she is nearly drawing blood on her chest area. We clipped her nails, gave her 25mg of Benadryl allergy (as that is what the vet has told us to do before when she has had...

We got the results We got Sox's results yesterday and we were very happy. She doesn't have cancer, she has some sort of inflamation... which still isn't good but its better then cancer. We just want to thank everyone on BW for all their good vibes and butt wiggles :-) Sox will be around for a...

We Use Banfield in Killeen, TX Our vet is wonderful! WE are in Killeen and Sox goes to see Dr. Laura at Banfield. We haver been so happy with the care and attention then give to her and how knowledgeable they are with all of our questions. Killeen is a little closer then College Station.

what type of harness? What type and size or harness would be good.. Sox is only 20 weeks old and is growing like a weed. I don't want to get one and ahve her grow out of it too quick. Thanks

We Love to take Sox on walks at night, however it is frusterating because all she wants to do while walking is bite her leash. We have tried all the no bite sprays and have even tried Listerine (someone said it works), I just want us all to be able to go on a walk not have Sox plaing tug of war...

Well, Sox is home... and it was a rough afternoon, but she is starting to come around. Thank you for the info on the puppy "ice cream" she had one tonight, it was the only thing she would eat, I think because it was cold and refreshing. The vet said 7-10 days and we will find out about the...

Our reasoning for doing it early rather than late (spaying) was because we were told it could be done anytime between 4 & 6 months. Also, that if it were done (for females) before their first heat, it was believed to be a less chance of ovarian cancer etc. I'm headed to go pick her up now...

An update, some good news, but major concern Thank you to everyone for the wiggles and hugs! I went and saw the vet this afternoon, though I still can't pick up my baby for another 2 hours (b/c of the anesthesia). She made me feel better, but showed me what she cut out for the biopsy..... I...

Our prayers are certainly with you and Ellie! Try to keep strong!! She is beautiful!
