He is so SWEET! My 10 pound shih tzu doesn't like him. He bullies him :lol: It's not funny, but the boxer just lets him bully him around. The boxer actually goes and gets toys and brings to the shih tzu, then the shih tzu takes them and guards them from the boxer, when he gets close enough, the shih tzu bites his ears. The little dog has issues. Major jealous dog. The boxer will lay on the floor so the shih tzu can attack him. :jameo: and the dummy lets him! I think he's laughing at him.

I think you would have a hard time re-homing him. Is his name really Tater? Too cute.

I dont think she will have a hard time rehoming him... not at all.

He is a very social dog...that gets along with kids and dogs.

yeah getting along with other dogs is a huge plus

... it's rough keeping 2 dominant dogs apart so they won't fight :whistle:

Because she said she LOVED the Dog, and speaks of him like he's her Baby..that's why!

I do love the dog, very much. My son and I both cried at the thought. But I want to do the right thing, and if finding him a new home is the right thing, then that's what we have to do. My son's living arrangements don't allow him to have a dog, and my dog doesn't like him.I can't give up my dog to keep his dog either.

I don't think I'll have a hard time finding him a home since he's not a problem dog and he is beautiful, it's just finding the perfect home. I love him enough to not send him just anywhere. I would love to have an "open adoption" where we could still visit him once in awhile. He is one of my babies.

I am all for open adoptions because I think that is a great thing if the adopter is open to it also (I would hope most would be). I do my best to talk adopters into being open to at least sending us updates/pictures that we can share with the prior owner if they wish to get updates.

One step further would be if the adopter would allow the former owner to visit the critter (most that relinquish critters don't ask for this).

If I was lucky enough to be able to adopt another dog (Hub won't let me), I would be all for Open Adoption, and would give previous Owner the rights to take the pup on a sleep-over if they wanted.

Aww that's sweet. I wanted to visit the horse I returned to the horse rescue but they told me they don't allow that. They said it's confusing to the horse to see someone from their past. Really? So I sent them a box with his new fly mask and that was it. I'm not going to send them monthly "support" checks if I can't even visit him.

I have a boxer also and love him to death. He is going to be 9 in Febrary and it is hard to believe it from the way he acts. He acts like he is 2 sometimes. Still plays with toys and snuggles.

I used to think I had 2 boxer pups. Now I realize I have 2 overgrown bed hogs

Tater is very handsome and sounds great!! Exactly what my hubby would like brindle with white markings. I will def talk to hubby and see what he thinks about him. I would def be open to an open adoption. We live on a farm and I am with my dogs/they are with me almost 100% of the time. We do have a fenced in yard, would prob have to make it higher for a boxer. When we have time we take the dogs to the dog park to play with others (even though between my dogs and my parents' dogs they have plenty of friends). Any adoption will also depend on my 2 girls' reaction to the new dog. They are generally friendly easy going cockers. The younger one I think would like a playmate. She tries to play with my parent's poms and they cower and she feels dominant over them, but she does not hurt them.

Those are beautiful bed hogs Kdenise. Hubby and I were on our couch last night and both of the cockers came up with us. I asked him where the new dog would lay....he pointed to the love seat and said..I'll sit there! I know we will somehow end up with the 2 of us and 3 dogs on our couch each night before bed. Good excuse for the bigger couch I have been wanting!
