Dogs

They love it! all other dog kibbles get ignored or other foods. They love the chappie and eat it immediately. Is this a good food for boxers in your opinion? it is fish based 14% then chicken and rice then cereals and vitamins. It is also one of the cheapest to buy which is ironic as my boxers refuse science plan and others more expensive

im guessing this is a manufactured dog food?
im not aware of the brand. but if your dogs are fussy eaters you can feed them on cooked chicken/scrabbled egg/fish (if u dnt mind the smell) and boiled rice. also plain pasta, weetabix with water, good quality dry dog food soaked in water first and a bit of veg.
ohhh and my dog gets a mini sunday dinner!
(although not as cheap as tinned food and a little more effort atleast you know whats going into your dog and know your feeding them good food)

my dog lives off this because she started off as a fussy eater and then developed problems with her digestive system and heart probs so she can only eat small light meals.

shes a 9 year old king charles cavalier and although her age has made her more subdued she is still full of beans and has a really healthy coat. just a shame she has so many inherited problems.

I was wondering why his chin is cherry pink some days and white on others? what is the reason boxers chins do this?

I guess it’s just in their breed genetics … It shouldn’t be a problem. Has your dog been acting normal lately? Does anyone else have this problem with their Boxer?

My first Boxer lived to be seven. She died of bladder cancer. My current Boxer is eight years old, and I just had several growths removed from her. I didn’t mess with a biopsy due to her age.

The average life expectancy of a Boxer is 10.4. The overall average for dogs in North America is 12.8. The bigger the dog the shorter the life. My Shih Tzu life expectancy is 13.4. This is based on GOOD dog owners. Who vaccinate there dogs, proper vet care, general proper care, and good quality dog food (such as EVO, Wellness, or California Natural).

ETA: Smaller dogs often live over 15 – 16 years, medium and large size dogs typically 10 to 13 years, and some giant dog breeds such as mastiffs, often only 7 to 8 years.

Good luck! Merry Chrismtas.

My dogs! The dark one is Chevy, the one sitting on the couch and acting stoned is Bozo.

Has anyone owned both breeds. What’s similiar about them, and what’s different? Does one breed tend to be more dominant, protective, or hyper? How would you compare these two breeds?

Those are two VERY different breeds, and its not just because they don’t look the same.
Here is some good research on the breeds. Read about them, write down all the pros and cons that you may have about each breed as you read about them, compare how many pros and cons that you’ve written about them, and pick the one that has more pros than cons. :0)

I have 4 cats and we just got a Boxer puppy. They seem to be ok with him.

Since he will grow up with the cats and the cats are adjusting OK, it will probably work out fine.

One thought though – you should have considered this question before you got the dog. Some dogs and some cats just don’t do well together.

i feed my sweety boxer the royal kanin make, do you think there is anything as bette to give to her than that.

I don’t have boxers, but I feed my babies Life’s Abundance. It is formulated by a holistic vet with human grade meat. Check the cost comparison, it might save you money too. http://www.healthypetnet.com/HealthyPetNet/Products/ProductList.aspx?realname=40038485&Ath=False&hdr=&cat=0&category=Dog_Food
