"The Boxer Diaries" are the adventures of Foxy and Bear, two boxer dogs. With their human family, they share and experience new and wonderful encounters with other animals, humans and the natural environments some of the animals live in. Bear and Foxy learn that all of the different animals that they come in contact with during their travels speak different languages. "Saving Baby Elsie" is the story of Bear and Foxy helping save a calf from a pack of wolves. While learning how they live, hunt and survive in the wilds of the woods they find that they have a lot in common with one another, but that the difference between them would not allow them to live in the same place. But they can give each other the respect that they earned through the time they spend together learning about each others way of life. This book is dedicated to my wife for her strength and her support, and my grandchildren, including my newly found and adopted granddaughter, Elexis Sherice Thompson.
