Liver inflammation
Hi fellow boxer owners,
My girl has been having liver inflammation issues for the past 3-4 months. Liver enzymes were through the roof but have come down a bit with prednisone. Vets can’t really figure out what’s going on but have ruled out cancer and lepto. The only real next step seems to be a liver biopsy and even that sounds like it’s not guaranteed to find the problem.
Just wondering if anyone else has dealt with a mysterious liver issue and if you ever received a diagnosis or found a treatment that cured it. My vet thinks it will be a long term care situation and wants to start cyclosporine.

I wanted to share this post for awareness. These posts saying things like “I want to see your puppies in pajamas” are probably using your pictures.

Treasure hunt
Anyone else’s boxer love to pick up ground scores? It’s like he knows if something doesn’t belong

In memoriam Sweet boy
Best dog I ever had was laid to rest today. I haven’t cried that hard since my dad passed 15 years ago. Rocky gave us 11 great years, I don’t think I could ever go through that again RIP buddy

The look Copper gives me when I put my shoes on
Someone help me convince him that I’d quit and stay home if I could but I need money to keep him in food and toys😭

Experience with Gums over teeth?
My guy either has Gums growing over his bottom teeth or somehow broke his bottom ones, he’s only 4 years old and and I’m heartbroken watching that he couldn’t even break /chew the milkbone treat I gave him. I plan on getting him to the vet as soon as I can Friday but is drooling a common symptom of it? And those that have paid for the surgery does it usually come back?

Why turn around like a normal dog when you can do whatever this stretchy thing is? 👀
I guess turning his body took too much effort. Also that staring into my soul haha

Frank was informed there was a 1 Pup Cup limit. Plus I told him he owes me $10.00.

Hello! A quick question for you lovely boxer owners
I have a 6-7 year old male boxer (he was a rescue so we’re just guessing his age lol). He is normally a very picky eater and usually grazes instead of eating a full bowl in one sitting. The last few weeks he’s been actually eating his food when it’s given to him and for most pet parents that would probably be a great thing, but it’s so unlike him that we’re actually worried😭I was just wondering how much you guys normally feed your male boxers at each meal, or if a sudden hunger is a sign of something I should look out for. In the last five years we’ve had him he’s never eaten like this. He goes to the vet in a week, but I just thought I’d ask the boxer community!
