Likes: Sleeping all day, dog park, the beach, and did I mention sleeping all day?

Sissy is a Love Bug. She is super affectionate and has lots of love to give. On the flip side, she loves her attention, and at times will even whine for some lovin...LOL. A real attention whore...
She's been an awesome companion and family member for the last 13+ years. Now almost completely grey in the face and slowing down a bit, we fear her time is not far away. All you can do is enjoy their company while they're still with us
Name: Full name - King Louie, We called him - Lou, Babalou, Loubird
Weight: 55 lbs
Age: passed 2011 at age of 10.5
Breed: Boxer
Likes: dog park, eating....EVERYTHING, escaping from the yard
Dislikes: not getting enough attention
Lou passed in 2011 at the age of 10.5, which is about normal for a Boxer. He was a great dog, a real character. Boxers are such great family dogs. Also so expressive. Lou was no exception. His eyes told stories...
You could actually read his looks (or I'd like to think so). He was also a bed hog... he'd get between us and stretch out, pushing us to the edges of the bed.
One of younger Sissy and Lou....
Name: Full name - Issabelle. We called her - Issabelle, Izzy, Boo, Izzyboo

Breed: Pit/Boxer
Likes: playing in the hose stream, dog park
Dislikes: none
Yes, 14 years was a long time ago, but I mention Izzy any chance I can. She was by far the best dog I've ever owned. She was so smart, and really did nothing bad. The mix of Pit/Boxer is a GREAT mix. She would actually smile when you came home, her top lip would recede exposing her teeth as she snuffled and got excited. She was quite the ambassador too. When me and the ex would get into fights, she would literally put herself between us, distracting us and making us stop arguing. We lost her WAY too soon. She was killed by a 5 in 1 vaccination shot. It overwhelmed and destroyed her immune system. I always tell the story to other dog owners in the hopes that they will learn not to do the combo shots. Since then I've heard kids vaccinations should be treated the same, no multiples.
