In the best way possible. :)

Axel is 4 months old and I've had him home for 2 months. Almost nothing about my life is the same, at least my non-work life. I've lost about 25 pounds thanks to our walks, playing, and not having time to sit on my couch and veg out with a bag of potato chips.

I now have a snuggle buddy in the evenings and an extra alarm clock to get me up and going in the morning. I have a good reason to go to the park and take a little hike in the hills. I've learned more about dog foods and training than I thought I would ever want to know and I still need to learn more.

My house is full of toys and my 14 year old cat acts younger than he has in years. Plus, my local family owned pet store is having their best year ever thanks to me. :)

He had his last puppy shots and rabies shot today and the vet weighed him in at 28 pounds. Aside from a little kennel cough episode about a week ago, he's healthy and happy and fully of energy.

I have to thank the members of this board for all the wonderful information you've provided in current and older threads. I think I might have driven myself crazy a few times if I hadn't had this resource. So, thanks everybody!!

Yes, isn't it awesome! They are definitely life changing! I cannot believe all the joy and love I would have missed out on had we not decided to get our pups back in 2008. My family and friends think I am crazy obsessed about my pups, but they don't have boxers, only a fellow boxer parent knows! Also, though, I cannot believe the anxiety I feel when they are sick and the unbelievable sense of loss and pain when they leave us.
