Boxer Pal
Hi all. I am Paulo, the proud owner of a female boxer, Duffy. Only today I decided to register here although I've been browsing thru this site for a long time. It is so nice to read usefull info coming from people with so many diverse experiences and backgrounds with their dogs!
Duffy is 5 months now and is a wonderfull dog. She is ALWAYS in the mood to play and well... if you are not she will put you in playing mood immediately! She is also a very good company.
Her problems? Hmmm, only two and that perhaps my fault even if she is getting better on both. The first. She steals all she can from my kitchen. Things are improving but she still steals from time to time. Sometimes the face she puts when looking at me after hearing a strong NO! can only make me laugh! Her other problem is when she shuts off her hears. This happens when she is doing something naughty and I call her. She simply forgets who I am... and that when I say come she is really supposed to come!
On the other hand I love her greeting me when I arrive home after leaving her for a couple hours. It is very rare that I leave her given that I am favouring going everywhere with her rather than leaving her at home alone. It is good to notice that she more or less behaves in public places, be it a train or a public park. She is quite a good company, indeed! And lots of fun!
