The Boxer Dog’s history dates back to feudal Germany, where it was a small hunting dog that could tenaciously grip a bull, wild boar or bear until its master arrived. He was also a utility dog ​​for peasants and shop owners, and even a performance dog in the circus.

Boxer Dogs as we know them today are a larger breed: a mix of the German Boxer with a taller, more graceful English import. The era of this modern Boxer began in the 1880s and it became very popular in the United States in the late 1930s and 1940s.

Handsome Dog – Within the canine world, Boxer dogs are medium-sized dogs that stand 21 to 25 inches at the shoulder for an adult female and weigh between 50 and 65 pounds. The male can be taller and 15 pounds heavier.

He has striking good looks with a chiseled head, square jaw, and muscular body that make for a very handsome silhouette.

The ears are cropped and erect, which improves their hearing, the Boxer’s most developed sense. He is always alert and watchful, an instinctive watchdog.

The shortened muzzle makes hot and humid weather uncomfortable for Boxer dogs.

The coat is short, hard and smooth, and has a natural shine that can be enhanced by rubbing with a chamois (especially after bathing).

The short coat cannot protect it well from the extreme elements of the weather and therefore Boxer Dogs should definitely not be kept outdoors. It is a domestic dog, sensitive to extreme temperatures, it does not enjoy the drafts, the heat or the cold of summer.

Boxer Dogs come in attractive basic colors of fawn and brindle. The fawn ranges from a reddish tan to an especially beautiful stag red. Brindle (clearly defined black stripes on a fawn background) can be sparse, medium or dense.

A beauty standard for Boxer Dogs is that their white markings or “flash” should add to their appearance and cannot cover more than one third of the entire body. Some predominantly or all-white pups (known as “check”) may be born in a litter.

However, in the US, members of the American Boxer Club agree not to register, sell or use these “whites” for breeding in order to preserve the beauty of the breed’s true fawn and brindle colors.

Personality wise, the Boxer is a cool dog that doesn’t bark for no reason. The expressive face of him, the wrinkled forehead and soulful dark eyes, is a charming quality that distinguishes the Boxer from other breeds.

He can imitate his master’s moods, and adopting one could provide him with 9 to 11 years of joyful companionship. In exceptional cases the Boxer can live up to 15 years.

Boxer dogs as pets

Boxer dogs as pets, while low maintenance, require your constant attention, exercise, human interaction, constant obedience training, and lots of love. You can’t leave them to their own design for too long or they will feel lonely, bored and in trouble.

Being a large and strong dog, as well as highly intelligent, Boxer dogs need both physical and mental stimulation to keep them calm and dignified, while keeping their mischievous spirit and intrepid courage intact.

All the best!!!
