101 things you will replace as the price for loving your Boxer

[1 and Only]

I've lost track of what hasn't been mentioned. Have these?

326) Dryer sheets
327) A whole boy's sock (which took a week to appear in the yard)
328) Toilet Paper (after it's been pulled from the roll throughout the house in one long piece)
:rolleyes:

Have any of your boxers been absoutely perfect, and then one day just turned around and become monsters? He's my only dog, and it seems like most of the posts are multiple dog households... [/B]

Annabelle was quite destructive when she was the only Boxer in the house. She has calmed down some, but occasionally has her moments in the toy box, Never when we are here with her, always when she is left uncrated and unsupervised, which only happens by accident now. :p Bodhi, on the other hand, only likes socks, unless there is something he can't resist left in the garbage.

333. carpet
334. Hardwood floors (we thought we were so smart to put those down... now they are scratched beyond all help!)
335. glasses
336. grass
337. window sill (whenever we sell the house... not yet)
338. I was an idiot too and bought ALL FLAT PAINT!!!!! Every room now needs to be redone.
339. bedskirt, undies, socks, sweater, doggie beds...etc.............................

This morning was the first time I had read through this thread. What a hoot!!

I feel extremely lucky that Maggie hasn't destroyed anything other than any kleenex she can get her mouth on, and some of Monty's toys!

how about...

340. The brand new pair of shoes I bought yesterday and have yet to wear (or ever will)! I stayed mad at Sid for a whopping 2 minutes - he kept following me around with that boo-boo face with the big underbite, and I just couldn't resist.

There's so many - but who cares! After losing Bodhi at just 2 1/2 years old, I cherish every single minute I have with Sid.

341: The front windshield of the car ( this on the day we found out our monster needed an expensive ACL repair operation)

342: An operation to repair nose damage (mine), after a boxing match!

No amount of money in the world would replace the love you get back from your boxer!

Wow How time Flys

I last responded to this post back in 2001, today May 2, 2005 I ponder the same question..... Hummmm

My husband built me a new screened in porch this year. Being able to sit outside, shaded from the sun is a treat for the entire family.

Then one morning my husband stated Niaya and Blade are Band from the porch! I said why??? I didn't notice anything wrong. Then after a closer inspection I saw three neat holes in the screen at about waist level.

Since the screen has a shelf it became clear that as Naiya defends the family by barking at the deer, squirrels and birds she jumps up and rest her paws on the shelf. When she was especially excited, her paws punched holes in the screen. Oh my.

I suggested to my husband that he place wood trim there to prevent it from happening again... Till then we are still in the doggie screened in "doghouse". LOL

Oh well, who would have thought it????? LOL
