Thank you Rachel, I plan on trying to train our boxer when we get one for
therapy work. Only if the dog is able too.
I have been looking online at boxers in rescue groups, so far the ones I
have been attracted to say kids over 5, I have an almost 3 year old little
girl, & I can only have a female. My male sharpei Curtis really misses our
beloved Mia who passed away a month ago. Curtis separation anxieties have
gotten seriously bad & he has been doing damage to the house.
I have the thundershirt,Dap collar,spray & plug ins, rescue remedy, he
freaks out in a crate, I'm trying to train him to be crated, he is 6 & I
guess I have to call the vet, unless anyone has had a dog with separation
anxieties & has suggestions?
Thanks.
LoriAnn
Sharpei: Curtis.
Currently Boxerless on long island.
