I dont know where else to post this. I remember a few years ago going to a beach with my friend and her family and their dog came along. I dont remember where that was, but i was wondering if anyone knows how you can find beaches like that.

Well to respond to some of the posts.... no i did not research this breed at all. My dh and i wanted a puppy and dh basically said we were getting a boxer because he has always wanted one. He knew all about this breed but didnt fill me in, which annoys me because i am the one home with him all...

Oh i want to add....if anyone has suggestions of anything we can do to improve his behavior..... Like i said i really dont have time during the day to work on training with a toddler and a newborn. I'm going to start taking him for walks in the evening when my husband comes home, but i dont...

Okay our dog Sirus just turned a year old like last week. He causes so much stress in this house. He absolutely does not listen to us. He's wild and out of control, plus hes super strong. Good things about him, is he is completely tolerant of our 2 year old, and has never in any way been...

Thank you very much, that was really helpful!

Our puppy has been limping, yesterday it was a back leg, today its a front leg. I really dont think he's been acting normal either. We have found regular ticks on him, never a deer tick, although their so small i'm not sure we would find one. Anyway i was thinking maybe its lymes....but what...

Thanks so much for the suggestions!

Okay i just searched post threads about ticks....but no one said anything about repelling ticks....does anyone know how to do this? I want all the ticks near us to die!

Hopefully i'm posting in the right place....we have a small yard, pretty much no bushes or trees, yet our pup keeps getting ticks. I know we need to get him flea stuff from the vet, does that stuff help with ticks too? Which is the best stuff? Also is there something anyone can suggest for...

Anyone that has experience with boxers, typically when did your boxer start acting less psycho? Our boy has been slightly calmer the past 2 days and we're wondering if he's turned a corner and is finally growing up.

Thanks for all the good info. I read what you posted as for what should be in the dog food. Now, what brands of puppy/adult dog food would you suggest? And where can I buy it from? Thanks again!

We feed him Purina Puppy chow and basically any time we notice his food bowl is empty we give him food. If its empty and he's hungry he lets us know. I remember during his training classes the trainer gave another owner a hard time because she feed her dog (which was a lab) like 2 cups a day...

How much food should we feed our 8 month old boxer? He always acts like he starving:) How much should we give him when he is an adult? Thanks

Sirus is 5 months old and is 48 lbs.

I swear i remember reading that eucalyptus is poisonous to animals, though it could have just been for cats. Anyway we just found our dog finishing some eucalyptus off. I dont believe he ate that much but i'm still concerned. Does anyone have any information to share? TIA Melissa...
