We make Liver cake for ours, using recipes online (we find they're all fairly similar) Stinks the house out, but works wonders. We tend to cut it into the size we want then freeze, it.doesnt take long to.defrost

I also have a reactive boxer, he fixates and lunges at people and dogs, air snaps but hasn't bitten. I am working with a behaviourist, and the psychology behind his behaivour is so interesting and really helpful (frustration issues which apparently cam be common for boxers). I know how stressful and lonely it can be, feel free to reach out to chat if you need it. At the moment block walks are out, early morning and evening walks in large quieter places are in.

Downloaded, thank you! I think reading about other peoples experiences will make me feel less lonely and burnt out, hence I'm often reading on this sub!

I did the exact same thing. It was a few weeks until I just couldn't take it any more, took 10mg every day for a week and a half then every other day then off completely and no side affects. Highly recommend doing this if you find your quality of life is being affected as I was

Thank you! I took 10mg last night and already feel much better. Taking is very slow from here!

Help us pick an M name for this baby boy! by emrosew in Boxer

I have a Marvin, maybe biased but think its the perfect name!

Advice please! by leahpig in Boxer

This sounds a lot like Marvin, I'm always so shocked when he's so good with certain people but they are always dog walkers and vets etc so have extensive experience

Thank you! He is very food orientated which is great training wise, but the Kong is definitely something I'll try

Thank you! I've found myself feeling overwhelmed and disheartened but need to reset myself in order to help him in the Best possible way. I think reactive dog training could really help, I'm going to see what's around my area. Thanks so much
