I have thought about breeding my female when she is old enough, but I only want one or two litters. Will there be much if any sagging? People have told me that there shouldn't be any if I just bred her once of twice, and then some say that they will hang to the ground.

I have a 6 month old,female boxer and my boyfriend has just gotten a 3 month old male boxer. He has been in the family for about 2 weeks now. My concern is when ever they play together he get to growling really loudly and he grabs a lot more skin than what my female does. But it does seem like...

Before I got my boxer, I read that they were big lap dogs and they love to lay with you, but my Maggie asks as if she is Miss Indepedent. If anyone goes and sits by her, she gets up and lays some where else. She will only lay at the end of my bed, not beside me. Sometimes she won't even lay on...

I have had my pup for about 2 months now and I think she is starting to get the point to this whole potty training business. Unfortunately, when I take her over to my boyfriends house so someone can watch her while I'm at work, they will not put her in her kennel whenever they leave the house...

Do boxer drool?

Wow, my pup gets the hiccups all the time. Does anyone else's pup have these problems. She's 9 weeks old and it's unbelieveable with how many times a day she gets them!

I took my baby to the vet today, and everything checked out fine. That's great news for me. It settled all my worries now.

Okay, well when I let my 9 week old out, she does her routine and pees and poops. BUT... a few minutes later, after she come in, she will poop again by the door. I have never had a dog that goes THIS much. I have tried putting newspaper there but then she will go a few inches off of the paper...

Well... my baby is 9 weeks old now and it seems whenever she sleeps, she breathes in and out very fast. It's as if when she breathes in she pushes the air out fast and so on. Sometimes when she sleeps she takes a lot of deep breathes as if she's running out of breath. What's up? She does go to...

Is it okay if the some of the olive oil would go down the dogs ears?

When I tell my puppy to come to me, she just sits there and looks at me like I'm dumb or something. She is 9 weeks old. Are there any good ways to help her get the point that when I tell her to come to me, she should? Sometimes when she does decide to come, I praise her and I pet her all over...

What are some of the best Shampoos and Conditioners that can be bought for puppys. I used some Shampoo that I got from Wal-Mart {Just for a fast fix, because my local vet and pet store was closed} but it seems to make her skin flaky, so I won't use it again.

I have only bathed her once since I have had her.

I was looking in my pups ears today and I noticed that they were extremely dirty. I cleaned them out and about 5 Q-tips later she was clean. Her ears are NOT docked. Do boxers tend to get Ear Mites easily? How often should I clean her ears?

The first time I gave my pup a bath, she seemed really scared. She was 8 weeks at the time. Are there any good ways to reintroduce my pup to the bath tub and not be so scared from times to come?
