    @dromano Yep...too late for the no spoiling. We're doomed. :D

    @Bill Yes, he's a boxer. I know there is a difference between English and American Boxers...I think mostly in the preference of the head an neck. American breeder like the more elegant, longer neck, and the heads don't seem as big. It is also illegal to crop the ears in the UK. He's American bred. We aren't showing him, so I left his ears natural. lmao...on the shoes and furniture. So far so good. He has lots of chew toys. I know it's crazy to think that will continue though. ;)

    @Kestrel and Darlene Thanks! :) I think he's pretty cute too. His dad is 70 lb, so I'm thinking he won't be little for long.

    They are such fun. If I ever had another dog (My sister breeds Terveurens and Groenendales), it would be a Boxer. They are such softies. Here's an anecdote for you. When our current cat was young, the neighbours at that time had a Boxer and a large bruiser of a tom-cat. The Boxer's name oddly enough was Oscar. The cat's name escapes me. One day our little kitten wanders into their garden. Kitten flees for his life as Oscar comes lolloping towards him. No serious intent, just curiousity. The kitten gets stuck in the fine panels of the neighbour's gate. I'm trying to get in there to rescue kitten. All of a sudden there is Big Tom. Large bundle of fur, sharp claws,, blood running down Oscar's face, dog cowering under bush. You could put it into British vernacular "Oy pal. I don't like the little toe-rag either but he's one of us. Mess with him and you mess with me, right. I will re-arrange your face if necessary" I only wish I had had a vid-cam handy.

    Good luck with your Oscar. Treat him well and you have you have a friend and bodyguard for life (at least the life of your dog). My mother is in her eighties, her dog in its teens. The dog is large but fluffy. Children can roll the dog on her back and tickle its tummy. Woe betide any jogger, mugger, drunk etc. that Mum's dog perceives as a threat.

    My cat thinks dogs are family, because he was raised by a very maternal boxer (looked like an adult version of yours). He'd get too carried away with the teeth and toenails as a kitten, and she'd give him a time out. She'd gently pin him between her front paws and clean him stem to stern. He'd stalk off matted fur everywhere, but much calmer. THAT was funny, and happened a lot. I miss that dog, she was a stray, but she earned her keep.

    People are always thinking dogs are the dangerous ones. No one should mess with a cat. One swipe and you have blood running from some body part. If you're a dog, chances are, it'll be on your nose.:D


    :D One of the many ways to tick off a cat. Get her sloppy wet. There's nothing cuter than a dog and cat getting along and hanging out together.

    He looks great!
    I've always wanted a dog, had to put up with boring cats that only eat, sleep and scratch. Where's the fun in that?!?!?!?!

    Every use a laser pointer. My fat lazy cat would like to play, but there is usally a 65 pound dog bouncing around it. Kinda discourages the cat.

    So I have a laser guided attack dog.

    Every time I think I want a dog, I remember how much i like to sleep in, and how much I hate being confined and tied in anywhere.

    Still, that puppy is adorable enough I almost forget... he's beautiful, Laura.
