    My boys almost never fart anymore! I’ve been cooking for them for about 2 years now. Gas is a thing of the past. Also, pretty sure one of them has mange. We’re gonna try home remedies this weekend to see if we can get rid of it.

    Yes especially an older boxer (4+) they are easier to handle but if you are wanting a younger dog they are easy to train (even at an older age I have a 5 year old rescue whom I’m training). You won’t regret giving a Boxer in need a loving home
