Article Title: Understand Boxers And Their Health
Author: Shareen Aguilar
Boxer dogs may not be the most adorable looking breed of dogs
but they know how to keep an eye on their masters whom they
treat as friends. They know how to give you that look with
caring eyes and they certainly know how to comfort you during
your sad moments. Humans are certainly not sure how they do it,
but boxer dogs are just the terrific type of breed if you are in
the lookout for a dog that's athletic, cheerful and comforting.
The traits of a boxer dog may surprise you especially if you
are new to the idea of adapting a new dog for a pet. A boxer
dog's trait, for instance, is sometimes considered unlikely for
a dog. But since a boxer dog usually has a short muzzle and the
lower jaw is longer than the upper jaw, this makes it possible
for them to snore when they are asleep. An undershot for this
type of breed though is normal.
You must know also that boxer dogs are very sensitive to
extreme temperature. In times when it is too hot or too cold, a
boxer dog will need extra care from you. Be mindful of this
because boxer dogs have difficulties in maintaining their body
temperature. In times of hot or cold weather conditions, its
best to let your dog stay inside the house. Disregard the walks
for the moment.
When you let them stay inside the house though, the challenge
of keeping them happy and behaved is going to be your main
concern. Naturally, boxer dogs are the intelligent ones and they
also need to be active. Play with them when you can or if not,
give them toys to play with, but it's not a very good idea to
leave them alone too long on their own. They will, while they
still can, follow you and play with you and your family.
Sometimes, simply sitting down with them and talking to them
about anything is enough in keeping them still. Above all, your
boxer pet will always need to know and feel that you love them,
so do what it takes to let them know that you do. They will
thank you for it.
Boxer dogs are fun-loving and intelligent breed of dogs. As
much as possible, boxer dogs love to be always around people,
and even friendly strangers. Unfortunately for everyone, bad
days do come up and boxer dogs are not exempted from it.
Sickness is usually the main enemy of boxer dogs, it actually
goes out for any type of breed or any living thing here on
earth. Thankfully enough, there are ways an owner can partake to
battle the bad bacteria out of the boxers' way.
A boxer dog's health heavily depends on the pattern of eating
and the food and diet he's eating. When a boxer dog is
constantly being fed each day more than what he needs, a deadly
health disease called Bloat may occur. To avoid this from
happening, make sure that you feed your boxer dog with just the
premium brand dog food. Anything spicy shouldn't be fed to your
boxer pet. Also, be sure that your boxer dog only gets to feed
twice a day which, is already the maximum number. Though bloat
may still persist or occur at any given time, another good
approach is to allow your dog to digest what he has just eaten
before you take him for a walk or a physical activity. Asking
for a vet's advice about this health problem is also a good
idea.
As a responsible pet owner, you should always keep in mind the
important factors that are allowed and the ones that are not for
your pet. If you could, before adopting one, make sure that the
breeder have presented all sides of the story to you. Ask for
the healthy histories of both parents of the pup so you'd also
have an idea what to do exactly in case of emergencies.
Don't ever think, just for one moment that boxer dogs are not a
good type of dog breed. Don't worry too much about spending on
medication in case a health problem occurs. What is important is
that you adopt a boxer dog because you want to, and nothing else
is greater than offering a love to this wonderful breed of
animals.
