We are in Key West, however, my grandfurbaby boxer is in Pembroke Pines. He is 18 months old and definately needs it!

We have been getting an EKG each year since Sugar's heart mummer was discovered around age 3. Finally at 6 years old the test came back with the nasty spikes of arythmia. Since then we Holter monitored her (24 hour EKG) and started her on human beta blockers (Solital). Last week she had a...

Thank you for so much hope! Sugar Ray was diagnosed with a mummer at about age 2. She gets an electrocardiogram each year as part of her annual exam, to make certain that it doesn't turn to boxer cardiomyopathy. Last month her ecg was all over with arythmias. The Vet started her on Solotol...

At 2 we started letting her out of the crate, sometimes we would be gone for a half hour and she would eat a shoe and sometimes we would be gone for 3 hours and she would be good. She was great until she was 4 and discovered that the inside of comforters have the same stuffing as her toys. She...

Our baby is 4 years old and fifty lbs.; a former show girl who we got at 10 months when it was decided that she was too small to win in favor of her bigger brother. Some people come up to me and ask 'who is her breeder because they want a mini boxer. Because she is dark brindle, some people...

Thanks so much for this post everone! My baby has been good for awhile so we decided to take down the crate. She is 30 months old and appeared to grow out of the she-devil mode. Well, between Thanksgiving and Christmas there was lots of company, constant attention and her best buddy (my...

:( I've had this happen with my dark, dark brindle baby girl. She is small (45 lbs.) and I had a mother of a toddler steer away saying we don't play with pit bulls. Fortunately, her friend corrected her and pointed out that it was a beautiful example of a dark brindle boxer. Fawn boxers are...

My furbaby is petite. We got her at 10 months old @ 45 lbs. because she was too small to continue her modeling career. She still weighs 45 lbs. at 16 months. By the way, she thinks she is a very large human!!! Miki

weird eats Tonight Sugar Ray ate my teenage girl's cell phone. This is becoming a battle of wits between 2 teen gals. So far Sugar is winning. She is up 3 pairs of shoes, the tv remote, a camera and now the cell phone! She ate the cell phone when she had a half dozen dog toys on the floor...

Here we are on this little island surrounded by water and I thought Sugar Ray needed to know how to swim both for safety and to cool off so off to 'dog beach' here in Key West and she took to the water like a duck. So we thought our swimming pool would be easy...why would she ever be...
