I am so sorry for your negativity This is truly sad, that you have to take away someone elses "wish for good luck" and turn it into a negative too. And, I dont believe in leaving things to "mother nature", I believe in prayer. I have seen many dogs have litters (not boxers) and never once...

Thanks for good luck wish Kat, and yes we do have a mentor lined up, as well as the previous owner (just in case). We are keeping record of everything, and trying to take in as much knowlege as we can. We didnt want to wait any longer to try to have her bred, she is a bit older...but, we were...

So Negative Why do you feel the need to add so much negative to people having puppies. Yes, things happen sometimes...but this is a wonderful thing to experience in most cases. Wish her the best of luck instead of telling her her boxer is likely to die, or have serious complications.

Thank you for your concern... I have been reading everything I can get my hands on about whelping, and good and bad possibilities that can come with it. Our brother had always wanted to have her bred, and wants to be here with us when she is having her pups. We plan to keep a pup, not just any...

News just in from the breeder!! Am so excited I can hardly contain myself!! Just wanted to share with all you wonderful Boxer lovers that we are praying to have puppies in January! Our girl is 5 years old and is at the breeder for the very first time. She has played hard to get for the last...

Whelp Box We also were recommended (by very responsible and experienced breeder) use of plastic swimming pool with blankets in the bottom. Also the advice of a quiet non-stressful, traffic free area is correct.

How long? We were told to mark our calendar 59-63 days from the day we pick her up from the stud, rather than from the day of the first tie. Which is accurate?

Back to School Blues? We recently adopted our brother's boxer Harley, she is 5 years old. I have a 9 year old skin daughter. We have had her not quite a month now, and she has us all wrapped around her little paw. When my daughter started school last week, she paced the floor and was in and out...

Harley Has Me TOO!!! Hi ya'll, I am Misty (Mike's better half...hehe). Thank you so much for such a warm welcome. Just thought I would add a line or two about our baby girl, Harley. Mike wasnt exaggerating in the least when he said he wasnt an animal person of any kind. I have always adored...

Hi all. My name is Mike. My wife's name is Misty. We were out camping the weekend of August 7, 2004 and my brother came to visit us and brought his Boxer "Harley" with him. Little did I know he was about to try and get us to take her from him. He had her since a pup. He and his wife are...
