    Tamar Gellar, The Loved Dog

    I have recently finished her book and started to switch over to her methods. I needed something different, because Sorca would just usually ignore me. He seems to be responding amd listening to me more than ever, of course he rarely leaves my side and will come searching for me if I am out of...

    Demodex/Food Switch

    Thanks Thanks for your help. I am still back and forth over the Timberwolf and Candidae. Unfortunately, I am not choosing raw at this time. I actually have gone raw myself, and do not want to deal with the raw meat. I might change to this at a later time, or if the new food doesn't work. I...

    Demodex/Food Switch

    We just came from the vets and my baby has Demodex. Right now it is just two spots, so the vet just wanted to do a topical treatment cream. He Bsaid that it could be that it was because his immune system was compromised a couple of weeks after we brought him home (he got very sick and we...

    How old before pup will sleep through the night?

    I just got Sorca last Friday when he turned 8 weeks old. He has slept through the night every night from 9:30 until 6:00. After he eats, he enjoys another little nap before he's at it again. :) However, he doesn't always last before I come back home to let him out for lunch.

    smelly house - help

    We don't have a doggy smell, hardwood floors don't seem to hold the odor. The blanket he can lay on when he's on the bed, smells his Boxer smell (you know that smell that no other breed seems to have, just Boxers?):) And please, don't use the carpet fresheners if you have pets. I had a GS...

    Help! Boxer hurt & needs pain relief..!

    We have given our dogs buffered apirin, only buffered mind you, for different things before. However, I would ask your mom to come so you can run him to the vet first. I would never give my baby anything, especially after being bit by another dog without first seeking the vets advice. If you...

    Does Your Boxer Head Butt???

    Our Boxer we have now doesn't head butt. However I used to have a GS that would make you bend over to pet him. He would sniff me then as soon as I turned my head he would head butt me and knock me down and then ignore me the rest of the day.:rolleyes: The only time he did it was when I...

    Anyone on a RAW diet - HUMAN-Not dog :)

    Thanks so much for your replies. I may just have to give in an order the book. This may help me, just because my body is one that reacts very quickly to something that is toxic to me, which is a lot it seems. Certain chemicals and ingredients in processed food makes me sick within hours of...

    Boxers and a new baby

    My mom had me when they also had Keenya, a 2yr old female. That is one reason that I am getting a puppy now. She was so protective of me, not letting any strangers near me. She actually tried to attack a stranger that she did not know, but was trying to prevent me from falling on my head. My...

    picking out our puppy

    We have an eight year old male in the house, so I was going to get a female pup. Looked at them and the male jumped at me, and I fell in love with him. I'll bring him home next Friday, so I hope they will be okay together. If not, they'll learn to. Don't worry about the sex, pick the one you...

    Whining

    I believe they whine for communication and for routines. Our 8 year old, Micah, whines if its 8:30 pm, and you have forgotten his snack (routine), or if you have ignored him and have not spoken to, or looked in his eyes, to let him know that you know he is in the room. Ignore him for a while...

    Bell Training????

    Oh no! :eek: Kidding, that's why I am going to train him with the bells. The breeder is saying that he barks to go outside and potty, he did when we were there. But I have to work, so there will not be anyone to let him out whenever he wants. Our Boxer now was housebroken around 4 months as...

    Bell Training????

    I just received my sets of bells so I will have them when I pick my baby up next week. I am putting one on the back door, one set on the front (the door I will use for the middle of the night potty breaks, don't want to walk down all the stairs in the dark) and the last set for downstairs when...

    Anyone on a RAW diet - HUMAN-Not dog :)

    I've been reading ya'lls thread with interest. I have a couple of questions for those of you on it that might help me decide if I can try this. Did most of you eat a lot of meat protein before starting, and did any of you have a little hypoglycemia and how is that turning out? Just wondering...
