Hi from Dorset

[Annette Hallet]

This is my first time on this site, so Iam unsure what I am doing so here goes, My family have just purchased our first Boxer, He is nine weeks old and a little boy called Murphy, he is Brindle coloured and adorable. I would be really interested in any hints on keeping him happy.

You're off to a great start by coming here! There is a forum dedicated to puppies (how to care for them, feed and train them, keep them from eating your socks... :rolleyes: )

If you have specific questions or issues, you can do a search (the search button is up on the top right) for keywords to find threads which might give you some relevant advice or suggestions.

Welcome Annette & Family & Murphy,
plenty of hugs, kisses, toys and loving, but don't spoil him!!!!!!!:D .
You are in for a lovely experience ......there is nothing like being owned by a Boxer, Murphy will soon have you all trained to do as he wants. Do you have any more pets besides him?
My sister lives in Christchurch, it is a beautiful County.

Hi Annette, welcome to you and Murphy! In order to keep him happy, give him lots of love and lots of playtime. Make sure he has tons of toys to play with, a bored puppy is a destructive puppy. Good luck and I can't wait to see pictures of him!
