And boxers have surprisingly short life span. They are extremely prone to cancers as well. My dogs have always lived extremely long lives, but it's still never easy when they go. My childhood min pin lived to be 18 as did her sire, owned by my aunt. I adopted a Lhasa apso, surrender at 17. She lived two more years before I opted to put her down bc she developed kidney failure and canine dementia. That breed is known for long lifespans. My pit just recently died at 13. Right now I've got a rescue feist/mutt/ terrier mix. She's 6 & my pek is 4. Hoping these two live as long as my others did.
@KikisGirls that looks like the makings of a beautiful and yummy meal!
