Our hearts are breaking

Our sweet boy passed away on Friday. Bruno was the best boy, the sweetest pup, a lover of all he met. Our house feels so empty without his tappy toes making his nightly rounds to check on us. Boo Boo will forever be missed.

Advice for a first time owner of a boxer.

If you read the title then you know what I'm going to ask. If you kind people would offer your experience and help a new owner take care of their dog. I have some questions for starters.

My boxer is a month old and a week or so. We got him from a family friend that has puppies, pure boxers.

First question, how old was your dog when he understood his name, secondly, what should I do when he bites or barks at me.

A picture of my dog, my father decided to call him Odin, I have no idea why but that's his name.

Bumps on outer ear flap

I noticed several bumps on my Boxers ear this afternoon. They are really dry (almost scaly) and hard to the touch, but don’t seem to be bothering her. We just moved to the countryside so I’m not sure if she was bit by something or is having some weird reaction to the new environment. She is on allergy meds and flea and tick control but I was wondering if anyone had seen something similar.

So polite 😌

She doesn’t always need so much encouragement to get on the bed but always asks at bedtime. When she does get up she’s very careful not to stand on me.

The staffy however, bolts into the room like a small torpedo and doesn’t give a shite where she lands. Bladder or not 😂

Screenshot from the video I can’t load, so just imagine the gentle pawing at the bed and quiet whines ‘asking’ for permission lol

Best Food for Puppy w/ A Heart Murmur

We found out today that our 6 month old boxer puppy has a heart murmur. Idk all the details because unfortunately I wasn’t able to go to the appointment (my bf did). The vet told him to monitor the puppy’s energy level and make sure he’s not too lethargic. I started looking into what type of food would be best and it turns out the grain free food (zignature puppy) we’ve been giving him isn’t good due to the legumes.

Anyone have any recommendations? Also, he’s allergic to chicken. Thank you!
