I got my dog Walter at a boxer rescue and he looked like a boxer pup but I quickly discovered (sm)

He was either a mutant boxer or not even part of the litter I picked him from.  He had the jowly muzzle all the pups had, but he was huge.  He seemed to be the same age as the rest of the litter, you could tell by the eyes and the teeth, but he was kind of like the big clutz of the group.  But oh so cute.  He turned out to be huge and like a lab/great dane mix.  He has the short fur of a boxer and the big chest, and I now think he either was an orphan puppy who got put in with the litter or mom had another mate.  Either way, I am so happy he is the one I chose, he is such an interesting character and a really stunning and majestic dog.  Still a clutz though, he falls down over himself on the beach and stairs.  And he is so tall he prefers to sit on top of the stairs on the deck with his front paws a couple steps down.  But I've always had rescue dogs and they are so special. 


Walter, I posted below.  I am thinking now they either put him in with the litter


I wish we could all go the week of the graduation but their graduations are always a week earlier th
ours. So actually all three of my kids are still in school this week while all of hers will already be out. My youngest is actually missing school to go but my two older kids have finals so they can't go at all that week.

Thank you. I guess I'm just trying to find a nice way to say it without causing friction and keeping the peace.

My DH is your typical male, just deal with it when the time comes whereas I want to take care of things right away without hurting anyone's feelings.
I have a Boxer
and they are a whole lot of work, but they are wonderful! As puppies especially, they can be quite a handful, but they are the most loving dogs I have every seen. I'm sure the people just want to make sure that you can handle taking care of a big/active dog. Thank you for rescuing one!!!
Is your pit mixed with boxer?
He looks like my boxer a bit
My very first boxer as an adult had kennel
cough. I rescued her from a pet shop under similar circumstances. She had been there with her brother and her brother died. I refused to let her die in a pet store so brought her home took her to the vet and got her started on medication. The first month was rough, there were nights I just sat in bed and held her, she felt so miserable. She finally got through it and after that rocky start she lived to the age of 13.5 with not another medical problem the rest of her life.
My boxer pup just loves the snow as
well; he is the first boxer I have had that I actually have to make come in the house. He runs and slides he buries his head in it, eats it, just has a gay old time. My golden who just died about 8-9 weeks ago loved snow as well, he would dive in and make doggie snow angels. :-)
Dempsey is a purebred boxer and Boo
we think is shepherd/greyhound mix. She has the shepherd ears but the body of a greyhound or Pharoh hound (good guess Misha). The person I got her from told me she was a shep/dane mix that weighed 100 lbs, so I was suprised to see this 60-pound smaller dog. She is sweet and is slowly getting used to her new home.
This is our 5-month-old boxer, Bettis
nm
He is adorable...he just has a boxer face to me...
not pointy like some pits are...
Funny--everyone is afraid of my boxer...
and he wouldn't hurt a fly, but the old lady (13 years old) would not allow anyone in the house and will bite! She knocked over the meter reader once (when he came in the yard alone, after I told his company to schedule, so I could put her away--he thought he could give her a milk bone and she would be okay. Really, she just ate the milk bone and then attacked him) He said he laid in the yard for three hours because she wouldn't let him get up until I got home. She did not bite him, though, which is lucky because that was in California and I am sure they would have put her down.
my boxer chews up blinds....
Before we started crating him when we leave, he chewed up at least 8 window blinds.
Love my boxer, too!!! He is WONDERFUL...
with the toddler!
My hubby has no boxer boundaries. He will go down the street if he wants!

I went there for a week but never could get - sm
in the water as it was red flagged the whole time I was there. Stayed at the Oasis, very nice. Only went down to the beach once, ended up stepping on a bee, must have been one heck of a bee as it made me sick (or a reaction)--never had that happen before, luckily only for the rest of the day (2pm on), was fine the next day except for a sore foot. --I recommend Grand Cayman, great beaches, great snorkeling or scuba (the reefs there are amazing), the turtle farm is neat. Can be pricey but not too bad. I've been there about 5 x, plan on going again one of these days.
Since it has only been a week since
they were nursing, this is probably not abnormal, but it can't hurt to talk to the vet anyway. I also agree with below posters, definitely get this girl spayed. I raise show cats and this is most definitely the time of year the girls cycle the most, it is kitten season. Good luck.
The week from you know where

Not sure where to start here -- but I'll try to make this short and sweet.  In a roommate situation till I can get some bills paid.  Roomie sitch is a male and female couple and myself and I have a " significant other" who has lived with a male roomie for 12 years.  Nothing FUNNY is going on with the roommate situation and for me, here in the Miami area, just working and "digging out of the hole" so to speak. I rent a room am able to use the house where I live.


Thursday, I ended up getting a new cell phone after BATTLING with S carrier for a month.  It was a Motorola Q and while I know computers  -- this thing baffled me  -- Monday morning and it might be a return  -GRR.


Sorry, OLD lady here and I digress  -- anyway, with all the S***on Monday after being gone from my place for 3 weeks, the FEMALE roomie has done nothing but get on my case -- when I returned, unpacked, worked, and went to Long John Silvers.  The rest of the week, I had frozen shrimp and used a SMALL portion of her pasta. What I did not eat was put in a plastic container  and sealed in the fridge.Basically griping the whole week  -- NOTE -- she does not work and her BF supports


Thursday, was on the phone with Sprint, got new phone, went to Wal-Mart and got my haircut (after about a month and a half) and back to the house.  I then tried to get "new phone" working right and on with techs to very little avail, so gave it up and went to bed.  SO called me Friday morning and I loaded my car to make the trip to Miami  -- Friday afternoon, I get a call from the "female roomie" about the "mess I had left  -- 1 plate in the sink from pasta she had made and OFFERED, the restt of the shrimp was in the fridge, and when I cook, I clean afterwards.  The only thing in the sink was a plate, fork and coffee cup  -- I get a call Friday and she was BALLISTIC --telling me that she wasnt my maid etc -- HELLO?


Saturday, I was busy cause the new phone didnt work right and my son and his GF flew down here to go on a cruise so not online at all  -- I sign in late tonight and she had sent threats via my Yahoo account -- I really, HONESTLY think that because her "boyfriend controls her"  Here again too, she has no DL  -- NO car and if she dosent answer her phone, he would call my cell, but that changed when I changed my #  --


I'm rambling but...is this a thing where I call the "authorities" ?  I have done enough psych transcription -- BUT to get her to a hospital Im not sure what to do.


I am sooooooooo sorry that this was long but 3:45 here and I am REALLY scared of going back there tomorrow


Thanks


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


I saw a guy last week
who had been a teacher for a school, band and choir I think, who got the 3-X out for being "boring" or something to that effect.  Not sure if he is the same guy you are looking for.
During the week, they can SM

Go to after school activities (including sports), work (very limited hours) and church.  They are allowed on Friday and Saturday (I have two teens by the way) to make any plans that they want within reason of course.  Sunday is for church and family dinner unless other arrangements are made WAY in advance.  I have two younger ones too and they will have to abide by the same. 


Good luck!


We usually eat out once a week. On the
nights I don't feel like cooking, I have frozen dinners in the freezer, soups, make grilled cheese, and I always have leftovers from the nights I do cook.

My kids love pizza, so our "eat out night" is usually Pizza Hut or Papa Murphy's takeout.
About once a week sm
She is a small poodle, less than 2 years old. She runs outside every chance she gets and gets under the deck. She also sleeps on my bed every night and I will not sleep with something that smells bad. If I enjoyed that sort of thing, I would still be married.

She has very fine, wavy poodle hair. She is oily and if she doesn't have a bath at least every 10 days, she freezes in the winter, even in her cute little sweaters. I give her a bath, let her dry in front of the faux fireplace, and brush her a bit. Next day, she is perfectly warm in her little sweaters and warmer at night too. If she goes very long, she develops so much eye snot that she can't see well. I do my own grooming and I keep her properly trimmed about every other week.

End result is: Gorgeous little apricot poodle who looks adorable and smells like flowers. No dry skin, no flaking, almost never scratches at all unless she has had to go a whole 2 weeks without a bath. This is not too frequently for this dog.
We are at 1-2 x a week, usually just on - sm
the weekends though, and usually quickies as the kids are always here......I am so tired at night that anything more than a quickie is rare and maybe once a month.--My DH is the one who initiates as my sex drive went in the toilet 10 years ago with my first pregnancy and just never came back. I still enjoy it just lost the "urge" for it I guess.
I think this week for sure it's going
to be Matt or Allison. Kris keeps hanging on because the young girls think he's hot, but I actually prefer Matt to Kris voice-wise...

I think Gokey was AWESOME last night, as usual. :)
once a week maybe.
Used to go out more but got sick of eating out. It began to taste all the same. Plus, during the summer, my husband grills out 2 to 3 times a week and it's GREAT!
also once a week....nm

WHAT A WEEK!!!!
We lost Michael, Farrah, and Ed McMahon!!! I don't follow "celebrities" all that much, but wow! I can't believe 3 in one week.
Same thing I think every week...he needs to go!
If you haven't watched tonight's AI yet, I don't want to spoil anything so don't read this if you don't want to hear anything. All I can say is...what was up with that crying little girl??? But then again, she cried when Melinda sang too so maybe she does have some taste after all!
Did not see the preview from last week.
Well that is good news to see him up and about. Hopefully that will happen today, maybe.

Yes, so sad when Nick and Sharon were screaming and then Nick trying to get back in. May be Nick and Sharon will reunite because of this. I like them together.

I am watching while I am working too. Really hard to get anything done.
In another preview from last week
we saw him sitting up. Hopefully that is a good sign. Didn't your heart just break when you saw Nick trying to run back in the building? OOOOOHHHH, I get too involved. LOL
I have for a week and a half now
I started it a week ago Sunday.. that would be the 17th. I have had absolutely no "treatment effects" as they call them. I have watched what I eat and have switched to some lower fat or no fat products, as far as like cheese, salad dressings, sour cream, things like that. I don't really eat a lot of fatty meat anyway, so that hasn't been anything to deal with. The changes have been pretty simple actually, pretty easy to make. Also with Alli, it only works around the meal that you take it with. So, if you basically want to watch your fat for most lunches and dinners, as I'm doing, you just take it for those two meals. I don't worry about it with breakfast because I usually just have cereal anyway. If you have some occasion planned, dinner out, might be having a meal with more than 15 g or so of fat, just don't take it. It is pretty simple really and if it does nothing else, it keep you honest with those meals you eat when you take it.
uh, your ankle was like that for a week before you went in
"needless to say I am still in pain"....maybe you should not have walked on it for a week without getting medical treatment for it; that is not the hospital's fault....do you see the irony of your statement?
Yep, for over a week now, in Missouri

I go to the gym 5 days a week
and I own my own treadmill, stationary bike, and some weights. I have always had a thin build and always played sports as a kid and as a teenager, and have always been very active (I'm 26 now). I guess that's how I do it. I'd go insane if I didn't work out.
I use AVG and also run spybot once a week. (nm)

She was in hospital almost a week before she had him...
Sorry I didn't mention that he took off a week before she had the baby. But yeah he has went back to work according to her mom. I think she is embarrassed about his feet but I have told her that she need not be he is a sweet adorable baby. How could someone make fun of a baby? When I do ask to speak to her her mom will say she is busy or something. I say well the baby must be really keeping her busy and her mom says no actually he sleeps most of the time. The baby was checked by the doctor and he said completely healthy baby other than the clubbed feet. I thought about dropping by but her mom had said that she just wished people would not come over. And one of my other friends "dropped" in and her mom called me and was kind of acting like they thought that was rude to come unannounced. So I don't know how to go about it. I did call during the time she has been home but her mom said her husband was off so I know she wouldn't talk. She is very strict about no phone calls when they are together. It is weird to me but she is a very good friend. But I would still call and ask her mom how her and the baby were anyway and some days her mom would call me just to chat. I don't know I kind of feel like I have lost my friend. I will have to send a card.
Sounds like us, we were in the 70s last week and
now have 3 inches of snow.
coming up soon, next week I think...
a
Mine was doing that just last week!

I was gonna toss it, because it's just this little mouse that looks like a ladybug (queer, I know, but I'm like that!).  My husband is a gadget freak and took it apart, which consisted of removing 1 screw to separate the "shell."  Inside it was a TON of lint that was messing up the wheel.  He just blew it out and it was good to go.  Might want to give that a shot before ya chuck it.  This mouse is an optic mouse though, no ball on the bottom.  On the old ones, you can remove the ball and clean it as well if that's the case.


I just saw those at Walgreens this week nm

Yes, I posted in regards to this last week. sm
My post, however, got deleted. I did receive an email from administration saying it was fixed and it did appear fixed for a day or two, but is now back again. VERY FRUSTRATING!@
I bought a new car a week ago...
If anyone cares. A brand new Kia Spectra. I got a great deal on it. They gave me a $2000 rebate so that meant no down payment. And they took off an additional $500 for applying for it on the internet. I love the car and it gets around 35 mpg. So that is my good news!
1K a week? wow, no wonder you remember with such sm
nostalgia! I started MT in 1984 at 4.25/hr; minimum wage. I NEVER heard of anyone making those kind of bucks!
Once I remember I had a two-week SM
check of almost $1,800.00 which included a good bonus. I was pretty fast in those days and had a lot of normals I used to pull up. I did not work full time, but about 5-6 hours a day, sometimes a litte more, I used to work some hours on Saturday mornings if my account was behind.
I'm on vacation this week, so ...

brought some movies along to catch up on.  I watched 27 Dresses, which was just okay.  I loved PS I Love You.  Also been watching The Office with my sister and DS, and Emergency!, which aren't exactly movies, but lots of fun.  It's been a great week with my family.  Almost hate going back to work on Monday!


Thanks for sharing that, I'm seeing it this week with sm
my mom, sisters, and sister-in-law.  I can't wait!!');>
My daughter gets $10 a week
She watches her younger sister while I work, and she loads and reloads the dishes and is supposed to keep her room clean. On Saturdays she'll help me by doing various cleaning chores.
We just got WII fit this past week
I'm waiting for school to start so I can do it with no one home!!! Glad to hear there is a password so you can hide your weight and BMI. ;)

We bought this WII for my son last Christmas and I can honestly say it was money well spent. They have a blast with it and they aren't constantly sitting. We don't have the Guitar Hero but maybe that will be next on the list.
Sometimes you won't lose much 1 week but BAM sm
you lose a bunch the next week; sometimes it is water-weight related, other times related to your period or hormones. Some weeks I didn't lose anything, only to have a 4 lb loss the next time! Just be sure to start being active (even if it is only walking to the end of your block) and drink your water!
My first purchase was last week. sm
I hunted and hunted and finally found a Wii for my 7yo. The only problem now is what else to get him that doesn't cost an arm and a leg!
About $100 a week give or take
That's for four of us and I live in Upstate New York. My older daughter is a vegetarian so we do have to buy special food for her, but because she's the only one that eats it, it lasts a lot longer. We eat a lot of chicken and pork, but occasionally a good piece of steak. We're in the process of getting a small freezer so we can buy more frozen foods so we don't have to go shopping as much for certain things. My daughter's lunches are $2.00 a day also, but for the types of food they get there's no way I could feed her for less. We eat out once a week by ourselves with our good friends on Saturday night and at least once or twice on the weekends to either McDonald's, Arby's, Burger King, pizza, etc.
$50 a week if I send DH. $100 or more if I go

I always overspend cause there's always something on sale that I will need sooner than later. DH goes by the list and the list only.


I live in PA and there are only 2 of us now.


Normally week AFTER Thanksgiving.
