Please do not feed Rawhide to your dog. They are bad for them and can cause a blockage.

Reminder ::

When you get your 8 week old puppies, please keep these images in mind. Their bones do not even touch yet. They plod around so cutely with big floppy paws and wobbly movement because their joints are entirely made up of muscle, tendons, ligaments with skin covering. Nothing is fitting tightly together or has a true socket yet.

When you run them excessively or don't restrict their exercise to stop them from overdoing it during this period you don't give them a chance to grow properly. Every big jump or excited bouncing run causes impacts between the bones. In reasonable amounts this is not problematic and is the normal wear and tear that every animal will engage in.

When you're letting your puppy jump up and down off the lounge or bed, take them for long walks/hikes, you are damaging that forming joint. When you let the puppy scramble on tile with no traction you are damaging the joint.

You only get the chance to grow them once. A well built body is something that comes from excellent breeding and a great upbringing-BOTH, not just one.

Once grown you will have the rest of their life to spend playing and engaging in higher impact exercise. So keep it calm while they're still little baby puppies and give the gift that can only be given once.

*Many Bones are not fully fused until 13mo of age.

I can’t emphasize this enough. It’s not a good idea to spay or neuter too early.

As a responsible breeder, I cannot emphasize this enough! Please do not use those oral flea medications on your Boxer babies. They are damaging and killing them !!!! I’ve already had five cases of these meds causing ataxia, paralysis and seizures.

Copied from a breeder:

POTENTIAL OWNER: How much is the puppy?
BREEDER: $4000
POTENTIAL OWNER: What?? It's way too expensive!!
BREEDER: What do you think would be a good price?
POTENTIAL OWNER: No more than $500. You breeders are so over priced.
BREEDER: I am sorry you see it this way, why don't you try it yourself?
POTENTIAL OWNER: But I've never done it!
BREEDER: For FREE I can teach you how to do it, and in addition you will have the knowledge to do it again.
POTENTIAL OWNER: Perfect, thank you!
BREEDER: To start you will need a female(average cost $4500 and up). Also a male(average cost $4500 and up) or semen (average $2000 -$2500 and up). You will need to show them to their championship to show they meet the breed standard(Minimal $2500 plus travel & fees). You will need to do genetic & health testing on them, averages about $3000 + per dog. Raise and provide daily care, feeding & grooming for 2 years. (So minimal $250 per month)
POTENTIAL OWNER: But I don't have that much money...
BREEDER: For $500 you can raise a litter and then keep one of the puppies. Obviously, you will pay the cost of whelping & care.
POTENTIAL OWNER: I can do that.
BREEDER: OK so I have a female due to whelp in 2 weeks. You will need to be available 24/7 around the clock for at least 10 weeks to help with delivery and care. ( a million loads of laundry)
POTENTIAL OWNER: Ten weeks?? it's way too much time for me! I have to work.
BREEDER: You will also need the reproductive vet to do xrays($ 250-300) possibly progesterone testing($110/ test ) & C-section($1000-$5000) and initial vet care on pups until old enough to be placed.
Have on hand a scale, thermometer, latex gloves, sanitizer, absorbent tissues, scissors, hemostats, heating pad, whelping box, blankets, cleaning supplies, appropriate food with supplements for mothers, formula, medications & hand feeding supplies in case of emergency....
(This list isn't even comprehensive.)
POTENTIAL OWNER: But I don't have all these things!
BREEDER: For $2,000+ you can buy them.
POTENTIAL OWNER: Ummm .... You know, I think it might be better if I just buy a puppy.
BREEDER: Wise decision.
For us, there are no vacations or holidays, while you go to visit with family & friends we are home at our dogs side caring for them. It is a no breaks commitment.
THIS IS THE REALITY
When you choose a reputable person, you arent only purchasing the puppy but also: knowledge, support , experience, love, time, sacrifices, etc...

Please, if you are a pet owner, use titers and avoid combo shots! This article explains why. Your pets will thank you!

Find out what's in those combination vaccines your vet recommends ... and why you should avoid giving them to your dog.

When you bring your seizing dog to the vet and the FIRST question is not “what do you use for flea and tick meds?” Then you know we have a big problem here.

Most people tell me that when their dog has a seizure or any neurological issue they take the dog to the vet and after tons of bloodwork and test after test with a clean bill of health that their vet never, not once, asked about flea and ticks meds that might have been given.

How are consumers ever going to learn about the dangers of this product if vets don’t even CONSIDER that this drug MIGHT be part of the problem? When you get a new puppy and you go to the vet guess what is in your puppy pack? Yup. One of these chewables.

I’m not sure what else to do so I just spread the word. It’s all we can do.
