Boxer Talk

And they're split. Into as many different, separate, topics as was possible. However, because this thread contains many posts which reference several different conversations and several different people's posts in one piece of text.

Not every conversation can be reasonably split into it's own topic. Even if it might have made a good stand alone topic.

So if in places the flow of this topic seems odd or that there may be missing posts that is why. There are still plenty of nice, happy, sad and everything in between posts and conversations left in this topic.

In fact some of the most important posts. Especially about peoples loses and their new dogs (Mine too.) are in this thread/topic to this day.

Hi, Im back again. We did decide to get the 2 sisters, a tan girl we called Bonnie and a white girl we called Milley. They were a handful and it has taken a lot of hard work but we are getting there with them and training is coming along nicely(ish!!)
It was great to bring them home because the house was so empty after we lost Holly,and they both have such different characters, we have lots of fun with them every day.
Thanks Everyone

Hi Emma!

It's nice to hear from you again. Sounds like you're having a great time so I'm very glad you decided to get both the sisters rather than just the one.

If they lived together before it would have been a shame to split them up.

This way is best for both you and the girls.

Take care and give Bonnie and Milley hugs for me!

Hi Paul and everyone, just to let you know what is happening in our household at the moment. Everything is great with our "new arrival" and Paul you were right, Pixie is now ruling the roost. Boris is putty in her hands, most of the time. She is wonderful, full of life and fun. Boris is a very big dog but she bites him, grabs hold of his lead while we are out walking jumps on top of him steals his "treats" and tries to steal his food. And you were right again he lets it goe so far and then he growls at her and lets her know that he is still "the Boss". She is also very stubborn and likes to get her own way with everyone, Boris is not like that at all and is such a well behaved dog. The cats are another matter, Boris usually keeps well away from them but she will go up close and stare at them, only to get a good smack of claws across her face, which I am afraid she deserves, she also tries to steal their food so you can image that situation. Anyway all is well and I am looking forward to spending the Easter break with them all. Have a great Easter Paul and look forward to talking soon.

Hi Margaret!

It's good to hear from you and to know things are going so well for you and the whole family.

It all sounds so much fun.

I got a bit of that experience again at the weekend when I spent time with my brother and his family. We took all the dogs up the woods and it was very much like that between Murphy and Betty.

So yeah Easter has been pretty good and I hope for you too.

Unfortunately though Rosie will be going in for an operation on April the first (Nice date eh?) .

She acts completely fine seems in tip top shape but a large lump appeared just off her chest. Near one of her nipples. The vet says it's best to remove it.

Anyway it should be fine she's fit and it's a minor surgery. I admit I'm a bit nervous of it though.

Speak to you soon Margaret!
