What do you like about this subject?

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.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

Educating Boxer owners in order to have a happy and successful life living with a Boxer

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Boxers are the "clown" of all breeds. They are "puppies" up in their years-- even up to the end of their life cycle.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

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.

Hi Kristen, Let me address one thing at a time. You are correct. Crate training for "bladder control" is cruel- especially for a puppy-- it does not train the bladder. Puppies cannot hold their

Andrea, I am confused as to why you would breed Allie and Peanut, just to give away puppies that possibly won't sell. Why even breed? If you are not confident that all the pups will sell to good
