Just got back from the vet for a checkup. We are 82 pounds now.

His sister should be joining us in just under a month. She should keep him entertained

Doesn't seem like that long ago he was a little pup. Boxers are such fun breeds. I can see his goofiness in those first two pictures.

Lite colored pomeranian is my 2 year old female "Clover" and the red/white pom is my 3 year old male "Lucky". At 7 lbs. each they are smaller than my clodbuster----more like traxxas sledgehammer size. :D If you ask them if they want to "play rc" they will shriek , bark and howl until they get to chase one around. They are especially fond of chasing the quadcopter.

Bell my little king Charles cavalier just hit the jackpot ! My wife had just been shopping in my car while I did a little work on her's ,when she got back I took the three dogs for a walk , Bell hopped over the back seat into the boot (trunk for yanks :wink: ) , I had a few weeks before been over to my parents and they no longer have a dog but keep scraps after a meal for my dogs and they had given me some frozen scraps in an old ice cream tub , bell had found the frozen delicacy in the boot and ever since has checked the boot for loot , I told the wife this and we both had a laugh , well today Bell did her usual boot inspection but stayed in there untill I reached the woods for our walk , on opening the boot I found her troffing at a torn open sack of dry dog food :D , my wife had left it in the boot without thinking , no dinner for her tonight ! :lol: :|

Troffing on dry dog food?? That's really funny. I reckon your Bell must have a normal healthy appetite. My Sadie hates her dry dog food (even though I think it's most healthy for her). I have to mix her dry food with something meaty before she'll eat it. She loves peanut butter and french fries (a.k.a chips) but
I must impose a strict limit on those for her. She's very picky (and spoiled :wink: ) and has never been known to trof on anything. lol :lol:

Speaking of eating, check out my two. Both bowls are identical, filled with the same food at the same time. This happens every day, they will not eat out of different bowls. They eat one gone, then later attack the other.

haha... that's funny. It's called TEAM WORK!! As in; a bowl of food must be eaten even if it takes two to complete the mission. :lol:

Bell for a little dog has a big appetite , we have to keep close tabs on her so she stays the right weight , she finishes her dinner and pushes the other dogs away from theirs , we more or less have to feed her in a different room with the door closed , I don't think she eats or chews her food so much as inhales it ! I have to think how much of that sack of kibble she would have eaten if left to it :shock:

Cavaliers are not known for being shy around food.... we've had three over the years, and still have a Cav. cross Beaglier at the moment. Always had to feed them in separate rooms, especially when we had three of them at once!!!
