Re: help male boxer dog is people/dog aggressive...
Your boy is getting frustrated and needs to be worn out - however being worn out doesn't necessarily mean exercise. Working with him doing obedience exercises can also wear him out mentally and can be an answer for you in the short term. I would say that you would benefit from some professional help...

Fear Agression? - PTS or continue?
We have had one of our Boxer 'pups' returned. Alfie is almost 4 years old Boxer, he was castrated at 15 months old. He was returned to us towards the end of April as he had 'bitten' an elderly lady causing her hand to need stitches. However we never saw the elderly lady nor the injury so we can't co...

If they do decide to give him up, I can put them in touch with a very good Boxer Rescue, I know the main person and seen her interacting with aggressive dogs, he was a lot worse that this one. Thanks but as his breeder he's ultimately my responsibility. I have found a Boxer trainer that is going to...

Especially if there's no itching etc. As this is what one vet treated Abby for turns out she was hypothyroid. It almost ended up costing her life, as it affected her heart badly. ...

I always ask people that have a puppy from me to wait until they are mature before having them spayed/castrated and that means at least 12 months old. Some people have admitted that their vets do try to pressurise them to spay when very young. I find these two articles interesting http://www.canines...
