As many of you know I’m a huge boxer lover… started with Ali – found him at the pound with an ex boyfriend. I had to get my own… Rocky came into my life. Such a handsome loving pup who made us laugh all the time. Goofy, Funny, and a love bug! While I still had Rocky I thought he needed a playmate and my boyfriend at the time was in love with the boxer breed as well, so we got Marci. She sold us with a heart shaped spot on her belly. Once I dumped the boyfriend, I got Marci – there was no way to separate the two. They ate together, slept together – they were buds! Then we lost Rocky way too soon. Marci was pretty down after Rocky passed but came out of it. It wasn’t easy but I think overall she liked being an only dog. Marci got the same cancer that Rocky did and it wasn’t too long after her diagnosis that we lost her. It took me 7 months before I was ready for another dog. Everyone questioned if I should get another Boxer…. but I just love the breed. They are so much fun! I saw this picture of a boy puppy and I just knew… he was meant to be mine! I saw him in person and immediately started crying… Duke was mine! He is just as funny as the others… such a snuggle bug (when he was a puppy)… he does chew more than both Rocky and Marci did… but I love him so much. He is just a fun dog! Slowly learning how to sit, stay, fetch and down. LOL. I wouldn’t have it any other way – he was meant to be mine and came into my life at just the right time. He is my handsome boy.
