Sasha looks beautiful as ever..


Answer:
Thanks Sophie and Sue

Sophie, most people say 9-14 it varies,
chances are Sasha wont meet the 14 yr mark since she came from a BYB but its hard to say

I was on a breeders site the other day, all her dogs were CKC registed and she shows them, she has BEAUTIFUL dogs, some of them were old, but she had a page with her past Boxers on there, there was 7 Boxers listed as passed away and not one of them was over 9 yrs old

Craigs parents has had 3 boxers in the past, one lived to the age of 11, one died of a heart attack at the age of 6 and Daisy was put to sleep when she was 13, she was having seizures so bad, by the end of it she had lost all control of her bladder and she could barely walk, the vet said he could put her on meds but it would only prolong her life for about 6 mths and she would still be in pain, so they put her to sleep

Boxers tend to get alot of tumors when they are older, have alot of heart problems, hip problems, and alot are known to get epilepsy , plus allergies and other problems


Answer:
She's so pretty!
