Hi I'm new here...
« on: August 01, 2006, 08:30:32 am »
Hi Everyone,
I'm new here and just thought I'd say hello and maybe a quick intro. My name is Elysia and I'm owned by a 4 year old boxer (we were told he's a mix)....named Brody. He is such a well behaved doggy. I really lucked out with him. (and by lucked out, I mean he's my first doggy as an adult, and he's pretty much a perfect angel!).We adopted him from a rescue four hours away in Provo, UT. I drove there TWICE to get him. lol. And I'd do it again. :0)

Can't wait to get to know you all. Thanks for allowing me to share.
Sincerely,
Elysia

Awww, what a cutie!  I love boxers, too!  It was my second choice breed, but when my hubster agreed to getting a Great Dane, it was all over.  I have now had danes for 20 years (currently have numbers 7, 8, and 9).  I still wouldn't mind having a boxer one day.

Welcome to BPO!  ;D

Oh, I love Great Danes too!! I looked into adoption before. There's a rescue in Denver (onlly 4-5 hours from us). THere's also a Boxer rescue there, but they refused to adopt to anyone in an apartment....w hich is a bummer, cuz I'm a SAHM and have plenty of time for one. Brody don't mind much, but I'd still love a place with a big yard :0). That way I can toss the ball and he can RUN. They did just recently open a dog park here in town. Haven't been yet. Will go sometime soon. Anyway, thanks so much for the warm welcome!!

Welcome and enjoy!!  I am Heatherton and I also have a boxer rescue, her name is Daphne (I think she may have some bulldog in her too) also the sweetest thing.  I've only had her for 5 months and she is gradually coming around.  Her previous experiences weren't the greatest.  Just the other day she walked through the kitchen doorway ALL BY HERSELF!!  She has a thing about thresholds so this was a very big deal!!  Anyway, I also have a siamese mix, Stone, who swears the mix is dog.  Welcome again!
God placed me on this earth to accomplish certain tasks...I'm so far behind I'll never die!!

Welcome to the place.  I'm Kat and I live with Cinder and Kaila (Belgian Malinois females) and Shiner (male Malinois X Ridgeback).  Brody is so cute.  I can't wait to see more pics.
