Having a Boxer is a little different than some other dogs. Inquisitive is not the proper terminology.

Every Boxer we’ve had has had issues with bees.

Not his first rodeo, but Geddy got into some bees today.

Tough to tell from the picture, but his jowls are triple in size and hard to the touch…..very swollen.

It was obvious he was not feeling well as he’s been stuck to Dad for a while.

Some Benadryl will hopefully make him more comfortable.

It's too late now, but if you mix meat tenderizer and water to make a paste and put it on the bee sting right away, the meat tenderizer will break down the protein in the venom and help to alleviate some of the pain. My Weimaraner used to go after the spiders and get spider bites on his lips.

Wouldn't you know shortly after that picture he was back in the same spot. No ground bees. Thinking he just came across one or more.

Guessing he tried to eat the bee(s)....Spicy Bugs. :oops:

Didn't learn first try......:rolleyes:

Thankfully after Benadryl and a few hours the swelling was down a lot.

Today he's about normal and playing with toys.

Spousal unit had to have an indoor cat put down a few weeks ago and it was replaced with a new one yesterday…I’m not sure if it’s really brave or has some mild cognitive impairment…however the dog is listening way better than I could have imagined.

According to picture #2, it should read "dogs". Looks like the cat has them both at attention and giving strict orders!

LOL…Maybe….i am not sure how many lives he has used up in his first day with us, but I guarantee he’s at less than 9 left. Probably closer to 0 than 9.

I’d bet if he tries to use either of the GSDs like a jungle gym it’s not going to work out.

Took the mutt for a walk at the local off leash reserve and he made friends with a 3 year old Collie cross kelpie who was on a long training lead at the time. Pair of them were racing around like loonies and shot behind me.I wasn't paying attention at the time and the lead wrapped around the back of my legs.
Damn he is strong.
My ego immediately kicked in. Nah that didn't hurt. 🤣

James Crane worked on the 101st floor of Tower 1 of the World Trade Center ... He is blind so he has a golden retriever named Daisy.


After the plane hit 20 stories below, James knew that he was doomed, so he let Daisy go, out of an act of love.

She darted away into the darkened hallway.
Choking on the fumes of the jet fuel and the smoke James was just waiting to die. About 30 minutes later, Daisy comes back along with James’ boss, Who Daisy just happened to pick up on floor 112 on her first run of the building, she leads James, James’ boss, and about 300 more people out of the doomed building.

But she wasn’t through yet, she knew there were others who were trapped. So, highly against James’ wishes she ran back in the building.

On her second run, she saved 392 lives. Again she went back in. During this run, the building collapses.
James hears about this and falls on his knees into tears.

Against all known odds, Daisy makes it out alive, but this time she is carried by a firefighter. “She led us right to the people, before she got injured” the fireman explained.

Her final run saved another 273 lives. She suffered acute smoke inhalation, severe burns on all four paws, and a broken leg, but she saved 967 lives.

Daisy is the first civilian Canine to win the Medal of Honor of New York City.

Spent some time at the new place today and for the first time it started to feel like ours (previous owners have recently moved to their new home). So for first time we took the dogs out to the pasture and back to the river. They got their steps in had a big time. The way those tongues are hanging out, if the grinch doesn’t say ‘no you don’t need a milkshake’, might have to go them some pup cups this evening 😆🥃

They definitely have the AC running! Did they get in the river for a swim?

No it’s about a 60’ cliff (at least we have not tried yet) We have not yet found a safe place to slip down there…the shaggy one he is a jumper and could make it down but but most certainly not confident about the landing….he thinks he can fly…but not nearly enough water to let him….and not a good way to get him back up (yet) Eventually we will either rig up a rope ladder or maybe put some steps in to the series of shelves in the shale/cliff. For now they have to settle for a couple of springs and a swampy area.

Talked about dinner fireside in the “What’s Cooking “ thread.

Part of that is roasted marshmallows.

It was fun when we did outside dinner with the 3 kids by the fire.

Lotsa marshmallows for kids and whatever dog we had at the time.

Geddy has only had marshmallows a couple times.

The kids are all grown and gone.

We packed it in at 7:30pm after eating an “Early Bird” dinner.

We’re pretty wild…..😜 At 2, Geddy was ready to come in as well. He has busy days…
