Thanks for all of your well wishes Stewart went back to the vet today for two more tests - another CBC test to check his blood levels, as well as a liver shunt test. The vet is pretty sure that it isn't a liver shunt, but in the interest of being thorough, she performed the test anyway and...

Hello there. I'm seeking advice about my 11-week old puppy Stewart. Stewart had a small seizure on Tuesday night - the whole episode, from the first seize until he was up and walking around, lasted about a minute. There was no drooling, defecating, etc. - his muscles simply tightened up and...

Thanks for the welcome greetings! I have no idea why I waited so long to post!! I look forward to getting to know more about you and your boxers. And personally, I'd go for the newspaper (carpet seems much harder to digest). Haa ha! It seems like forever since Ethel's been a puppy, and I...

Hello everyone. I have been a Boxerworld member for about 2 years (I think? Maybe more!) and I've never posted before. Here's my first one! I have two adorable boxers, the lights of my life: Ethel, who is almost 3 (2 years and 9 months), a beautiful fawn girl with a black mask whose favorite...

Thanks for the kind/funny words and advice, everyone! Ethel is just fine, and, as I hoped, just passed the wrappers without a problem. Though her bowel movements were sparkling with foil for 2 days! We called her vet and he said that with her size, the wrappers shouldn't be a problem - and...

Hello everyone, I have a question. Today I went out for a bit and left Ethel by herself at home by herself. She is usually veryg ood (sometimes she gets into the laundry, etc., but what dog doesn't?). I got home, however, and found a stuffed bear that I got for Valentine's Day, on the...

Ethel's a Treat Snob, Too! This sounds just like Ethel. The girl will not go near a dry treat! It's ridiculous! We were spring cleaning last weekend and were going through all of the great dry treats we've bought her - wholesome, yummy stuff - and we did a taste test to see which ones she would...

thanks! Thanks to both of you for the info. kariRN, I know what you mean about the stomach gurgling. Ethel has always had lots of gas, and it's no different since she's been on Wolf King, though I'm wondering if this formula is too rich for her. We mix her food with a bit of wet (which I wish...

Hello everyone. Our pup is a bit over a year old and we've recently switched her to adult food - Solid Gold Wolf King formula from Wellness Puppy, which she hated and often snubbed her nose at. I've heard lots of great stuff about Solid Gold in general, but I haven't been able to find anything...

ethel's a city dog and loves to look out the window at all the goings-on in the neighborhood.

ethel hates her vest, even though she looks awesome in it.
