I can answer any questions a Boxer owner might have concerning genetics, breeding, gestation, whelping, personality, character traits, health, needs and requirements, and family dynamics, including aggression and behavioral issues, including other pets in the household. I can help with aggression modification. PLEASE RATE MY ANSWER. I RESEARCH AND DONATE MY TIME FOR THE CAUSE OF ALL BOXERS' WELL BEING.
I have over ten years as a owner and breeder, early training, and behavior modification.
Boxerworld.net, Boxers Breeders Association, Boxer Rescue Austin Chapter,
Boxer owner, breeder, and trainer.
I've owned many breeds, finding that the Boxer is entirely different. They don't know they are canine; believing they are human. Boxer owners will believe they are human too.
Educating Boxer owners in order to have a happy and successful life living with a Boxer
Boxers are the "clown" of all breeds. They are "puppies" up in their years-- even up to the end of their life cycle.
They are playful, devoted and loving, loyal and obedient, and good family protectors. They are NOT guard dogs, but more of an "ALERT" dog, unless family is threatened. Don't expect a Doberman attitude from a Boxer.

First, I would see another vet. Secondly, buy some baby booties (at a dollar store is cheapest) and put them on him every time he goes outside. Of course, you will need many, many pairs and wash often
Vet said: "He said most often this is a result of uterine infection and the only treatment was to spay. " "Most often" IS NOT a definitive diagnosis! Find out EXACTLY what is wrong-- do not spay
Breeding age is no younger than 2 years old and normal weight ranging from 50-60 pounds. Please use the internet (Google, etc.) and gather information about breeding, pregnancy, whelping (giving birth)
GET HER TO A VET IMMEDIATELY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She should NEVER be in labor 2 days!!!!!!!! She could have an obstruction; a large puppy stuck in the birth canal and MUST have a cesarean to deliver
Do not spay her at this age!!!!!!!! No!!!! She IS a 72 year old woman. Spaying helps prevents cancer during reproductive age and she is too old for that health factor now. There are too many
