.....thanx everyone; I've already been spending more time here than I had intended!!! You're right -- it's very addicting -- I never tire hearing from "boxer people"!

Thanx, Barb & Stephanie! You've been a big help....talk to ya' soon~~~Sue~~~

Hello, hello! I'm fairly new myself, and I can't help you -- but thanx for asking 'cause I was wondering the same thing. All I know is how to reply and post messages.....

Hello "Chubby Hubby" -- I too, am from Brantford, Ontario!!! SMall world. Yes, our Tyson (male) was VERY sedate and was happy to just lick anyone who came by; he didn't bark either -- one night someone tried to kick our front door in, and Tyson slept (or should I say, snored) right through it...

Thanx, Draymia! I don't know how I missed seeing your response 'til now, but it's always good to hear from others. It's amazing how many people have said once you've had a boxer, there's no other dog! Many times we have seen people walking their "shi-shi-poo-foo" dogs, and my husband and I...

......thanx for the input Natalie & Daisy! Our Tyson used to have to "touch" us in some way as well (...big baby, even when he was 10 yrs. old).

I can't tell you how much I enjoy hearing from you all -- this truly is inspiring -- I don't know if it's the time of life, season, (or the month), but I'm feeling weepy reading about your Boxers, everyone -- I just pine for our next baby!

:eek: Wow! I can't believe how much Barron looks like Tyson -- except Barron's ears are much nicer than Tyson's were (but, OF COURSE, he couldn't be near as wonderful as Tyson!!! Ha, ha, ha.... ) I'm glad to hear this -- do you remember your family females as being aggressive and/or standoffish?

You're right about watching them with littermates -- Tyson's breeder had originally wanted us to have another pup in the litter since we weren't interested in "showing"; however, it was very antisocial and Tyson more or less "picked" us. He followed us on the patio and loved being held. The...

What a beautiful dog!!! Any pups in the future?

THank you soooo much for the support; it makes me feel much better about our decision to get another Boxer. We have friends who are on their 2nd & 3rd Boxer (2 of them) and they also say that once a Boxer-owner, ALWAYS a Boxer-owner! Tyson was also the type to follow us from room to room and...

Not long ago there were some comments in the forum on the pros and cons of getting a male vs. female puppy. At the time I just skimmed through them for interest; however, we have been seriously thinking about "adopting" our second Boxer. "Tyson" died 2 years ago at 10 1/2 yrs. old -- he was...

"Greenies" ;) THanx for the info.... I'd never heard of them before...

"Greenies"?? O.K., now what are "Greenies"???

kong toy Hello! I'm new to BW and am a former Boxer owner and will be getting another within the next couple of years. When I saw your story on the kong, it reminded me of the toy friends of ours have -- they have another type of dog (Chesapeake Bay Retriever) who also loves his kong...
