Thank you Carla, & thank you for welcoming me to the group :) snoring is
not a problem lol, my pei Curtis use to vibrate the bed he snored so
loud!!! I am reading up on boxers & looking online for a local rescue group
or one that is not too far from long island.
We definitely want a female. I was looking at black boxers & read there are
no true black boxers, but sheesh they are good looking!
