my boxer is not to good

Post some pics up when you can. She's getting better, so it's OK to laugh at her lampshade misfortunes a bit...right?

Thanks man, we are a family of dog lovers. Years ago my sister met a Boxer in need. Family abandoned her at 11!!!!! Ever since, we have a soft spot for the defective little beasties. ;-)

I use the 'two knuckle method' for determining ear cleanliness, and yes it's disgusting:

Index finger down into the ear to the second knuckle. If it comes out brown and smelling like beer or yeast clean with a paper towel, twisted to a cone and dipped in H202. Just wring it out and work it until you you see the back legs moving. I had an old girl that used to always get yeast infections in one ear. Very hard to get at a dogs eardrum, you have to go down, then up then in toward the brain. As long as you go downward, you'll never hurt them, mine love it.

I've told Raven and Brenna too, they are also sending warm regards. Bella is laying down for this one.

My prayers are with you and your dog, i don't have a boxer but they are great dogs and my dogs are just as important to me as my parents and siblings. I always worry whenever one of them is sick. I have a 130 Pound Mutt that is Part German Shepard and we think he is part collie and i also have a female black lab. We got both of them at shelters, Jake (the Mutt) we got from a shelter when he was a puppy, they were going to put him to sleep because they couldn't find homes for alot of them.

cheers uncle :yes:... it been a long week...sleeping on the sofa/floor for 5 nights,,but hay ho, am sure Layla felt better me being with her,,so a sore back is a small price to pay ..

wee update: got the drain out today,got her head washed/cleand up,,were back in next monday,,
she feeling alot better ....i dont think she will ever get the hang off the lampshade as shes still crashing into things heheheh...its mad, its like she cant judge where to walk through the door without banging into things,,scaping the thing down your shins (ouch), geting cought up in the grass when trying to smell the ground,,,man it must so much greif for her.......the vet told me to keep it on this week...so am going to leave it on untill WED then take it off during the daytime (i phoned in sick this week so can keep an eye on her),,
i will put it back on at nights though,,as all us dog owners know,,thay can get upto all sorts at night when were alseep and i dont want her scratching her wound, (shaved face = itchy= you have a scratch = could hurt the wound...better to be safe than sorry....

o and a big toke on ma bong for the young lad that was in the vets today...
his 12 year old boxer was getting put to sleep:frown: (cancer).... it was for the best,,he had stoped eating ect ect ,,,,and as us guys all know boxers are full off life 24h till the day till they die,,,,this guys boxers time had come, he had nothing left + you could see it in his eyes.......it was heartbraking i had to fight back tears ,,i didnt even know the guy, we only got talking as i had a boxers aswell......

Here's our boxer. His name is Stray. One day a few years ago he just walked into our house. He was in great shape, but someone had driven into our neighborhood and just turned him loose. It happens. We've ended up with two dogs that were strays. This guy used to go out to the Alzheimer's facility every day with my wife (she runs the property) but has become more disabled as a result of a vertebrae nerve pinch that seems to be a common problem with this breed. So Stray stays home with me and barks at every car, person and truck the comes by - usually when I am on a call with a prospective client.
