    Psi is biting me!

    Psi doesn't have a playmate. We were thinking of getting another boxer to keep him company but we just wanted to try to make sure we were good parents to Psi first. It does make perfect sense that Psi is bored. Thanks for all the helpful information. I am going to tell my husband the...

    Psi is biting me!

    Well it is a couple weeks later and things have not gotten any better. My husband is at his wits end. Psi has completely destroyed all of our remote controls, chewed my husband's playstation 2 game and continues to bit me. Now when I try to put him in time out, he bites me harder. I can tell...

    Psi is biting me!

    Thank you so much for the advice. I started turning my back on Psi when he first started (actually because of a thread I read on the subject) but just recently he started biting me on the back, butt or leg when I do it. Then he will get down on his front paws with his butt in the air and bark...

    Psi is biting me!

    Hey guys! I need help and quick. Psi is an 8 month old neutered male boxer. He has started displaying very aggressive behavior. I don't think he is trying to hurt me but he has started biting me. I have been the nurturer in the family and my husband is the disciplinary figure. I scold Psi...

    Cannot control him around people

    Well the weekend is over and the friends are gone. Psi was a crazed maniac with one of the little girls and didn't bother the older one too much. We tried the warming up exercise of having the children tell him to sit and give him his treat. I must say that he was an absolute angel with that...

    If your boxer takes you for a walk try this

    Wow! I have actually gotten excited reading all of your experiences. I am a little afriad because if Psi is upset then I tend to turn to mush but the thought of being able to walk him and him not walk me is very appealing. I just posted a thread on how to control him around strangers and this...

    Cannot control him around people

    No offense taken. I love my baby and am open to any suggestions. I love the exercise for the children. I will try that tomorrow night. My daughter will have three little girls spending the night so we will do that game first to help warm them up. I will let you know what happens. We do...

    Oh my goodness........Look at that face! He is a natural. His markings are absolutely perfect. You actually have the puppy that I was invisioning when we started looking. BUT we couldn't seem to find one. Then we saw Psi and he was just the cutest little baby I had ever seen. When I...

    Cannot control him around people

    Psi is not neutered yet. We are going to do it next month though. Does that help? He did go through a basic puppy class through Petsmart. We have been looking into getting him training through Best Friends which is his groomer and boarding place. I just hate banishing him to another room...

    Cannot control him around people

    Does anyone have any advice as to how we can train Psi around guest? Psi is an excellent puppy. He is 7 months old and sooo very intelligent. No problems in crate, housetraining and even the simple commands, sit, down, shake, stay. BUT when there are new people around our puppy seems to...

    HELP!! Should we get another Boxer??

    I'm sorry. I didn't mean "work" in a negative way at all. Psi is the apple of my eye and I would like to be educated on anything he may go through if we bring another puppy into the home. If two boxers are great together and the male/female combination is great then wonderful. We just want...

    HELP!! Should we get another Boxer??

    Hello everyone. This message is for all the "more then one boxer" owners. A coworker of mine has two 8 week Brindle boxer pups for sale (only $250.00). One is a male and one is a female. We currently have a 6 month old Boxer male "PSI" and are thinking of buying one of the pups. We need to...

    Pictures of our baby!

    DDUHHH! I didn't even notice that you posted his birthday under under the reply. WOW 80 lbs! That is a nice size baby you have! Everyone says that Psi will be a big boy too because of the size of his paws and chest. I still try to carry him and he is about 25lbs now. He just looks at me...

    Just introducing ourselves

    Thank you so much for all the love! Psi is part of the Greek Alphabet. My husband actually named him and could give you a little more insight as to the meaning behind it. I myself would have liked to name him Delta but that would be better suited for a female. Eric, my husband said he would...

    Just introducing ourselves

    Hello! I am the proud mommy of a 4 1/2 month old male boxer. His name is Psi and he is the son we haven't had yet. He is a fawn with cropped ears and tail. I have been a devoted reader of this website before we picked up our baby and became a member when we brought him home (6/24/01). It...
