Well we have had first hand experience with Its me or the Dog, our show is being aired in autumn 2007, its a boxer called Zulu.
Victoria is terrific! straight to the point and the dog comes first. I have had Zulu since he was 7 weeks old and lived in africa for the first 3 years.
My boxer was brought over to england from south africa in nov 2005 and in South Africa there were no socialisation classes that we could find after the puppy classes had finished. Did find a couple but some of the other dogs were quite mad and the trainers seemed to be living in the methods of the 19th century. So i did most of the general training myself.
The socialisation was brill at first but as we lived on a plot and he was left to roam and do his thing (although he slept in my bed everynight) he kind of went the other direction. Now we have some problems with this. All the other things victoria managed to point us in the right direction and he has come along leaps and bounds. We were the typical "my dogs not listerning" people but turns out we were the ones not listerning. . . lol. . . .
So this is a plea to anyone living in the heathrow area of England, that has a calm submissive dog, pref female, that may want to do some socialisation with him. just general walks as he cant be let off the lead or does anyone know of an enclosed secure small field or even a large area of unused land, must be fenced by at least 6 ft as he is a jumper (as you will see on the show) that we can pay to use for each walk, just so i can let this beast of mine feel the wind through his coat and have some serious burn out time.
all info will be really appreciated!!

Hi Kirstine
I thought that Boxacrazy might be you.. . . . . Small world!
That will be gr8, Zulu will love to meet up with Sophie again.
She is truly a beautiful girl and her pups will be adorable.
If i didnt have my hands full with three dogs already i might just be tempted!! There is nothing as gorg as a boxer baby.
But im sure this wont be the last of the pups from the Trumist Boxer Crew.
I will mail you a bit later in the year to see how things are.
Thanks again for helping out on IMOTD with Zulu, we are truely gr8ful
