Boxer

What's not to like about a dog that is an all-around family dog, loves people and becomes deeply devoted to his family, is courageous, sturdy and highly adaptable, never loses his temper around children and is always patient and gentle, always keen in sensing danger and alerting you to it, never becomes destructive and is docile and manageable, seldom starts problems with household animals or dogs from the neighborhood, is an outstanding watchdog, but at the same time is quiet and not as hyperactive as some other breeds?

Whether you live in the city, suburbs or country, Boxers adapt themselves to share your life. Many Boxers have done well in rescue and guide work.

If you became fascinated by the Boxer and think that this breed is just the ONE for you, it is wise to give careful consideration to the Boxers breeders. A good source of Boxer breeders is the American Kennel Club from whom you can obtain a list of recognized breeders close to your home.

In selecting a pet Boxer, you might also consider the advantages of an older dog, maybe a retired show dog from a breeder who is anxious to place a good dog in a loving home. These dogs are always well-trained and make wonderful pets.
