I have a 9 month old girl, and we have started taking her, along with her 1 1/2 old brother, on walks. The brother (Diesel) will go on runs with me, but I want to wait a little while longer to take the girl. Well, Im starting to notice that she gets very warm, Very quickly. For example: I just...

I have the head collar kind. Its amazing! : )

Well after over a year with boxers we decided to try out this "gentle leader" thing that I have always heard about in these forums... Let me say, It is AMAZING! People! don't wait to try this thing! If you have any issues with a pulling, over excited walker, try the gentle leader out. Make sure...

I had the same question! thanks for the post! : )

I agree with the technique of inviting other dogs over. I think thats a great idea! What we did was duck tape the flap up for a day (while we were home of course) and did that consecutively over the weekend days... we would would put hot dog pieces on either side of the door just far enough so...

We have a white boxer and went to my husbands neices' soccer game late last summer. Our boy had been in the middle of a growth spurt so he looked all awkward and legthy (love that phase!!)anyways... A lady, who is friends with my in-laws; and is a VERY uppity boxer "show-er?" (a.k.a. competes in...

Diesel - Snuf-a-lufagous (because he huffs and snuffs when hes "talking back") Harley - Har Har or Miss.priss Combined I call them Bubbies.. Im not too sure how that came about.. probably from calling them "puppies" in baby talk and just getting lazy! But I love calling them that!

When we first got our boy boxer he was a gem!! I dont even remember having any accidents in the house. It was like he knew what to do all along.. Fast forward a year...we got our second boxer, a girl, and holy cow it was a *nightmare* It seemed like she had absolutely no concept of peeing on...

When i was feeding them taste of the wild, which is grain free, they had about the same amount of gas. Thats what puzzles me? I dont understand why they are sooo smelly.

I have just about had it with all the farting going on in my house!! I have a 14 month old boy and a 5 month old girl, and they both have horrible gas!! It seems that the girl has wayyyy worse gas than Diesel. She literaly will fart every two minutes..and its like loud audible noises!! It gets...

So, I have waited a few days before posting because it just didnt seem too serious. Now that it has continued I am getting nervous. Anyways, I have a 14 month old boxer boy, and we just got a puppy in december. About a week ago I noticed his shivering. Like he was cold. They are not very...

Thanks for all the replies guys! : ) I knew 8 days was probably a little too soon to be complaining but I felt like going crazy!! Ha. So in just one week we have made HUGE progress! We barely have one accident a day and we started bell training and she is really getting it. She caught on to the...

I usually take her out every 30 minutes and she would go to the bathroom, so when we went inside I would be shocked when she goes again in like 10 minutes! I just cant believe a puppy can eliminate that much! : ) When I praise her, I give verbal and physical love, LOTS of it too! I haven't even...

My husband and I recently got our 2nd boxer, after successfully having our boy for a year and had a great experience training him and what-not..So our puppy is 12 weeks old, we got her at 11 weeks (I know its a little old to be getting the puppy but sometimes timing isn't great!) and we are...

We are out in Lincoln, and would love to meet some more boxers!
