Health, I tried posting a reply the other day but I see it didn't take. Millie was on Purina Pro Plan before I tried switching her to Nutro for Large Breed, then Nutro Ultra. She was doing fine it appeared on Purina, but after running into a Nutro rep and reading some postings on this sight I...

Health: Millie was on Purina Pro Plan which the breeder had her on when we got her. She was doing fine on it, but after running into a Nutro rep at Petsmart, I decided to switch her to a better food. LIke I said before, she wasn't too crazy about the Nutro Large Breed, but she absolutely loves...

Thanks for the responses. I only have enough room for her to lay down and turn around and she's let out twice while I'm gone (every 3 hours), but I brought her to the vet last Thursday and I think we have solved the problem. The vet did a urine culture and it came back a few days later with...

We had the same problem when we got Millie at 7 1/2 weeks old (she is now 5 months). The first couple of nights we ignored her, didn't work. We then went to Petsmart and found a high frequency device the is supposed to emit a high pitch tone when it senses constant barking. That worked for...

I wasn't sure if this is truly a training issue at this point or if it is a behavior problem. My 5 month old female Millie is crated during the day while I am at work. I have someone come twice a day to let her out so she is never in her crate for more than 3-4 hours at a time. She seems to...

Make that a third person that needs help with this problem. I work during the day but I have someone let Millie out twice a day so she is never in her crate for more than 3 hours at a time. When she does go, it tends to be in the afternoon because her towel is always wet when I come home. I...

I just went out last night and bought a bag of the Nutro Ultra Puppy. I switched my Millie to Nutro Large Breed about a month ago, but was noticing she wasn't eating as much, has gas and tons of eye boogies which she never had before. I gave a little to her last night and she loved it. I...

Welcome to BW, I'm new too as of last week (although I've been viewing this site even before we got our boxer). I'm sorry to hear about your Roxie. We have a 5 month old female and I just couldn't imagine being without her. Your in Downers Grove and I'm in Lombard. If you end up getting...

Thanks Jan, that will save me time on my search to not even bother looking at the pet chain stores.

I have a post over on the feeding section but was checking this section out and noticed that Lael who feeds Wellness said she has less eye boogies with her boxer. My 5 month old female was on Purina Pro Plan from the breeder, but I switched her about a month ago to Nutro for Large Breed...

Thanks for the responses. I was thinking of switching her to different kind of the Nutro line because it seems like ever since I switched her (which I did gradually over a two week period) she's had gas which she never had before. I've been trying to look online for the premium kibble but I'm...

Thanks for the welcomes! The get together that is being planned for July 17th or 18th in Naperville sounds good, but I plan on having Millie spayed right around then so it all depends on when I actually get an appointment and how she is doing? If I go, it will be a last minute thing (decided...

Hi, I just recently switched my Millie, who is 5 months old now from Purina Pro Plan Large Breed Formula (which the breeder had her on when we bought her) to Nutro for Large Breed Puppies. After talking to a Nutro rep at my local Petsmart store, the sound of all natural appealed to me and I...

Hi, my name is Linda and I have a fawn female boxer, Millie who was 5 months yesterday. I've been on this site even before we purchased Millie deciding if a boxer was right for our family. I knew even before getting her that is would be alot of work but it's definatley been worth it so far...
