Hello. This is the first message board I've ever joined. I have a brindle boxer who just turned 10 last month. Her name is Jessica Tiger (aka JT, Jess, Tiger Girl, Jessie, Big Girl, Girlfriend, etc. etc. etc.) I adore her more than I can say. She's my girl. I live in CT with Jessica, my horse Princey and my goat Keeley. I lost my German Shepherd, Wolfgang, last year - he was almost 13. I joined the board to learn from others who have been through what I am beginning to go through. My dog has health issues (surprise!) which I understand I am not to post here, so I won't. But that is the main reason I joined. I want to learn from others how best to deal with her issues. Thanks to everyone out there who loves not only Boxers, but all animals. I look forward to learning from you. V
