My sweet, loving little boy Capone (almost a year and a half old!) is gone. He left us on Saturday, the vet had to put him down. His stomach tissue had begun to die & deteriorate, and we had to let our baby go. I was in love with that amazing dog, and this is so much harder than I ever imagined...

I didn't think they existed either!! I've been an english bulldog owner before, and I saw a gal at my apartment complex walking one. I asked her how her baby ended up so small, and she told me about minis. I went online and discovered that you have to be careful! Some ppl are breeding mixes to...

What breeds are complimentary to boxers? I mean, naturally, other boxers are good... But I moved, and no longer have my roomate's doggie around. My baby Capone has always been with her (my roomate's black lab). But now he's all alone and I am worried he's not happy about it. He looks for her...

Okay, just over a month now And only one more head shaking. It was when we moved apartments at the first of the month, and Capone had to be separated from his "roomate" for the first time since he's been home with us. He has always lived with me & my bf's roomate's dog Storm (female black...

Okay... so I've just read about a million posts on this topic, and am now even more bewildered than before. If your dog has had this SAME thing, plz help! My baby Capone, now almost a year old, just had a second episode of this weird head shaking. It is -just- his head. He does not seem...

Do it now before that bandage comes off! Re - bandaging ANYTHING is the worst! You can never quite do it like the vet. I would most definitely get an e-collar. They're fairly cheap and readily available at any pet store.

I hope both babies get better... it's such a heartbreak when they aren't their normal, bubbly selves. All the best hopes, thoughts, wishes and prayers.

This sounds just like my baby at 11 weeks. He got his crate at 9 weeks, and he hated it for a while. He is still adjusting in the sense that he still doesn't sleep in it on his own accord. (He would rather be wherever mommy and daddy are when he isn't in his crate.) He's 4 mos. now, and he...

Scrapper's Mom, This is very similar to what we've been doing, but your tips are VERY helpful. I just hope we can get them to stay! If anyone else has any other advice, please let me know...

It's a weird combination... one ear always tapes pointing slightly outward from the head (which is not good!) and the other one tapes fine upward as long as it stays taped... I can usually use some of that "vet tape" that sticks to itself instead of being adhesive to go over the actual tape...

I got my boxer puppy Capone's ears clipped, and I am having HUGE taping issues. Does anyone have any advice on good taping that gives great results? I'm willing to try anything at this point. Even when I have the surgeon that performed the clipping tape them, it doesn't last more than one night...

I must have had a memory lapse! After I thought about it a while, I realized our Capone puppy has destroyed 2 phone chargers and dug through the trash very selectively until he reached a closed take out container still holding a bit of cous cous I never did finish. He selected it, opened the...

Is this a popular name or what?! I thought we were original when we did that, lol! The weirdest thing our pup has done was attempt to attack my boyfriend's empty boot, and still being a small guy, came running back with a boot stuck over his head.

True love has a cold nose My boyfriend and I did something that most do not - we got our boxer baby from a pet store. When we decided to get a boxer, we began looking at different breeders, and checking out some places. One day, just messing around, we visited one of our local pet stores to see...
