    Abby's really growing

    Took her to the Vet for shots today, she weighs 15 pounds. She will be 12 weeks old on Saturday. She also has been sleeping in her crate everynight, and a couple of days this week she was in her crate for a couple of hours while I went to the store. I am so glad we got a Boxer, the Vet asked me...

    Whiner???

    Abby seems to whine more when she sees my husband and kids, she knows she gets her way with them. I ignore her until she stops whining, so she knows whinning don't help with me.

    Socializing with small dogs advice

    I have 4 Miniature Schnauzers and Abby(11week old Boxer) the Schnauzers play great with her and no matter how big Abby gets she has learned early on who the pack leader is.

    Training going great !!!

    The winds were up to 45 miles an hour here yesterday with wind gust up to 55 and Abby didn't much like it, so she peed a couple of times in the house yesterday, but I can't say I blame her. She probably thought what in the world is going on. She is doing so great for her age. I am proud of her.

    Training going great !!!

    Well, Abby is now 11 weeks old. If you recall we had some crate issues, she wouldn't be in a crate without throwing a fit. I had been covering the crate, well I stopped covering it, she used to sleep with my son, but now she sleeps beside him in the crate. The first couple of nights she whined a...

    Walking nicely?

    I don't know about boxers Abby is only 9 weeks so I havn't even tried walking her. When I walk my Schnauzers I like them to be right beside me, if they walk in front they think they are the boss. I like the way ceasar (dog whisperer) walks dogs, it makes since to me. There is a little boy...

    Crate training, going poorly

    Abby is a stubborn pup. How long do you ignore their crying when you put them in the crate ? Geez, my Schnauzers never cried for as long as she does. Also it is worse than crying she sounds like she is screaming and howling and just making awful loud noises (sounds like she is saying help me). I...
