Oh what a wonderful story! Where in Ohio - we are also in Ohio, Boxer lovers (have two: Heidi, age 2 - she has her CGC and is TDI certified as well. Gunther is 4 months old and we hope and pray will achieve the same milestones our Heidi has. We adopted Heidi shortly after our grandson was born 12 weeks premature. We felt that he would likely have some deficits and perhaps growing up with a puppy would help. Turned out he has had NO deficits but we have this amazing dog so we do in-classroom therapy with special needs children and also with the mainstream students to help improve their reading skills. We also volunteer for the reading program in our local library.
Welcome to the group, Nana!
Val, Heidi & Gunther

Subject: [boxer lovers] My boxers
For the past 3 1/2 years I have had a little boxer girl. She ws found on the side of a road with a litter of dead puppies. My daughter ended up knowing the young woman who's sister found her. I took the boxer, Bella in. I had her fixed and took her to a trainer and she did very well at obedience. The Vet figured she was 6 when she was found. She is a great dog who is loved by my whole family and a favorite of my grandkids. 3 weeks ago today I adopted 2 more boxers from a shelter. They needed to be placed together and were said to be about 5 years old, vet thinks they may be a bit older. I wasn't looking for another dog but figured they might not get a new home because of their age and because they are two. They are working out very well. I was worried about Bella but I have not had any problems. They, all 3, are so much fun and get along so well. No problem so far.
