Boxer information
The Boxer's body is compact and
powerful. The head is in proportion with the body. The muzzle is
short and blunt with a distinct stop. The nose is large and
black with very open nostrils. The jaw has an under bite. The
eyes are dark brown. The ears are set high, either cropped or
kept natural. When cropped they are trained to stand up on the
head, tapering to a point. When left natural the ears are thin,
falling forward, laying close to the head. The neck should be
round, strong, and muscular, a without dewlap. The muscular,
front legs are straight and parallel when viewed from the front.
The back legs are well muscled. The tail is set high and usually
docked. The AKC severely penalizes a natural tail, while most of
Europe has outlawed this practice. Dewclaws are usually removed.
The short, smooth, close-fitting coat comes in, fawn, brindle,
tan, mahogany, black often with white markings. Boxers also come
in a white coat that cannot be registered with some clubs.
Temperament
The Boxer is happy, high-spirited, playful, curious and
energetic. Highly intelligent, eager and quick to learn. The
Boxer is a good dog for competitive obedience. Constantly on the
move, bonding very closely with the family. Loyal and
affectionate, Boxers are known for the way they get along so
well with children. A well brought-up and properly
socialized Boxer will also get
along with his own kind and other household pets such as cats.
Animals such as rodents, ducks, chickens
and other farm birds may be too tempting, however, they can be
taught to, "leave it" but it is still not recommended they be
left alone with them. It has been said that the name Boxer came
from the way the Boxer likes to use is front paws for just about
everything. If you have ever watched a Boxer go about his
business you may have noticed the way he paws at his toys, food
bowl and you for that matter, in a very playful cat-like way.
While participating the sport of schutzhund, Boxers are known to
jump up and use their front paws as if they are boxing. They are
very clownish and playful.
The Boxer's nature is to protect
you, your family, and your home. Known visitors will be
welcomed. They are always keen to work and play. Boxers need
lots of human leadership.
Teach the Boxer not to be boisterous and especially not to jump
up at people. This breed is noted for courage and make great
guard dogs. Boxers have a wide use in military and police work.
An excellent watchdog, the Boxer will restrain an intruder in
the same way a Bulldog does. They are extremely athletic,
sometimes even in their old age. This dog needs to go on a daily
pack walk. Daily mental and physical exercise is paramount.
Without it, the Boxer will become high strung. This breed
requires a dominant owner. Training should start young and be
firm and consistent. The objective in training this dog is to
achieve a pack leader status. It is a natural instinct for a dog
to have an order in their pack. When we humans live with dogs,
we become their pack.
The entire pack cooperates under
a single leader. Lines are clearly defined. You and all other
humans MUST be higher up in the order than the dog. That is the
only way your relationship can be a success. Meek Boxer owners
will find their dogs to become
stubborn. If they do not take you
seriously they will be sneaky, demanding, boisterous and hard to
control. Teach the Boxer dominating another dog is not
acceptable. Any signs of dominance needs to be immediately
corrected by the owners in a calm, but firm, confident way.

Needs
An
active, athletic breed, Boxers need daily work or exercise, as
well as a long brisk, daily walk. They also enjoy fetching a
ball or other sessions of play.
Boxers will do okay in an
apartment if sufficiently exercised. They are fairly active
indoors and do best with at least an average-sized yard. Boxers
are temperature sensitive, getting easily over heated and
chilling very quickly.
Grooming
The Boxer's smooth, short-haired
coat is easy to groom. Brush with a firm bristle brush, and
bathe only when necessary, for it removes the natural oils from
the skin. Some Boxers try and keep themselves clean, grooming
themselves like a cat, although some cannot resist rolling in
another animals poop, which calls for a bath. This breed is an
average shedder.
Boxer Origins
The Boxer was developed in
Germany in the 19th century. The Boxer's ancestors were two
German mastiff type dogs, the Bullenbeiszer and the Barenbeiszer.
They were later crossed with the powerful ancestors of the
Mastiff and Bulldog. Early Boxers were used for dog fighting,
bull baiting, cart pulling, cattle dogs, to round up livestock
and to catch and pin wild boar and bison until hunters could
arrive. They later became popular theater and circus dogs. The
first Boxer studbook was started in 1904. Up until then the dogs
varied widely in looks and size. The Boxer is known for the way
it uses its front legs to bat at its opponent, appearing to be
boxing with the front paws, most likely giving the dog its name.
Some of the Boxer's talents are watchdog, guarding, police work,
military work, search & rescue, competitive obedience,
schutzhund and performing tricks. Breeders are breeding two
types of Boxers, the German Boxer and the American Boxer. The
German Boxers have bigger heads and are generally more muscular
than American Boxers.
