Any dog parks in Central (Decatur area) Illinois? I have no idea where any are and would love to take Rocky somewhere to play.

Anyone from around Decatur? I want to take Rocky somewhere to run and play but I don't know of any dog parks around here.

I have Rocky trained pretty well at ringing his bell when he needs to go out. He's about 18 weeks old and he hardly ever messes in our house. However, when I take him to my in-law's house or my parents house, he can't ring a bell (and he NEVER barks) so he messes in the house. How do I train...

I hear it all the time... I assume it refers to a husband but what does it stand for?

Well how long has it been... just a week or so? You guys are right, boxers are very smart. Rocky already has the bell training down pat. <<Knock on Wood>> He rings it every time he needs to go out... many times even if he just wants to play. I LOVE it because I don't have to worry about him...

Well my fiance took him to the vet and it turned out that he had a parasite in his intestines called coccidia. He also had a few white blood cells in his urine so she thought there was a chance that he could have a minor infection. She sent him home with some oral Albon (500mg) and oral...

What treats do you guys feed your boxers? I looked at the only pet store in my area and they have no wellness treats. They do have Nutro Ultra but the first ingredient is again Wheat Flour... as most of the treats I looked at have.

Well I'm not so sure he likes the Nutro Ultra... once we quit mixing it with the Iams he lost interest. But that's about the time he started acting weird anyway so maybe it's because he's sick. Anyway, I've thougha bout Chicken Soup. Do I need to wean him off the Nutro or mix Chicken Soup...

Thanks! How long should I wait on the vet before I decide to call another one. Also, about the wheat, beet pulp, and brewer's yeast and stuff... I give him Iams puppy treats that have all of that. The ingredients are as follows: Ingredients: Wheat Flour, Chicken By-Product Meal, Poultry...

Well last night was not much different... he did have one good pee outside and then he peed twice inside (don't know why. He's been doing good lately). Well this morning I woke up at 3 to take him out and he came out and just sat in the living room... he didn't want to go. So I carried him...

He hasn't been drinking as much water lately, but he's still acting completely normal. It's just weired that he hasn't peed much at all int he last couple days. But he poops ALL THE TIME! And it's become runny lately as well. Don't know why...

Rocky has no problem going outside to do his business. He's 3 months old and still goes inside if I'm not carefule, but for the most part I take him out and he goes. Lately, thoguh, I've noticed that he doesn't pee as much. The last couple days when I take him out he will poop almost every...

Well I thought the first time may have been a fluke but he did it again yesterday. He was at the door whining and I tried to get him to ring the bell. He wouldn't, so I told him I am not going to let him out until he hits the bell. So I walked away and the next thing I heard was the bell...

HE DID IT!!! Every single time I take him outside I use his paw to hit the bell. Lately I've been trying to get him to do it on his own and he'll very lightly hit it with his nose so I congratulate him and use his paw to hit it harder. Well yesterday I was on the phone and watchign him eat...

Well I think I am going to just finish off the chain linked fence and see what happens. If he decides to start jumping it then I will get a privacy. Rocky LOVES to be outside and sometimes he'll go lay down and won't come in unless I carry him. So, I put him on his leash and keep an eye on...
