Thank you! I agree with you 100%. I love my boxer very much and give him ample play time and exercise. Simba loves his crate as well.

Thank you! I do respect your opinion. And to answer your question which is obvious. Because I love Boxers. I work 4 days on and 4 days off. Not to mention my wifes days off. So he is not crated a majority of the week. I was just asking for the times that we do work and he is in his...

Thank you! Thanks! I was just worried that it might be unhealthy for him. He is 7 weeks by the way. He does realy good in the crate and he loves it. He goes there if he wants to sleep or just have some alone time. Sometimes he even plays with his toys in there. He has peed in his crate one...

I was wondering what the age was to get your boxer neutered?

Just found this site 2 weeks ago looking for tips on boxers. This is a great site and so much useful information. Had a new addition to our family about 2 weeks ago. His name is Simba. He is fawn and my wife and I fell in love with him the day we picked him up. He is only 6 weeks old and a...
