Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
ok thanks for the replys. i will let yall know how it works out. found a rescue or sorts. a lady i found is a boxer breeder. she breeds and shows them. Im gonna go check out her place next week and all that. What research i have done on her so far is shes on the up and up. She has a white male boxer that is neutered, papered, and microchiped. He was sold to a couple as a family pet and they wife didnt like him so they returned him to the lady. hes almost 2, fully house broken, loves kids, cats, and small dogs. And no not for dinner. lol. She said that hes not a rescue like abused or anything. people paid 1000 bucks for him and then didnt want him after havin him for a couple months. so he came back to her. im gonna go check out her kennels and everything next week and pick him up the week after. if i dont get him. ill probably call the lady who PMd me back about one. thanksComment

Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
That's great!
I was tempted to suggest looking into Boxer rescues around the area, but since you said not to say anything about the adoption thing, I didn't. :) If for some reason this one doesn't work out, there is a Boxer Rescue (I think it's called Lone Star, or something) and I'm sure they have dogs/puppies who are in similar situations as the white one. Good luck! And post pictures whenever you get one!"Millennium hand and shrimp!"Comment

Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
I've heard white boxers are considered "undesirable" to the breed because many of them are deaf or carry deaf genes. A couple I know found a stray one, but ended up giving it up. I'm sure whatever color, they make just as fine pets and companions as their "colored" siblings. Just something I thought was interesting.
Good luck!Comment

They are genetically prone to tumors later in life. But they are BEAUTIFUL dogs. Just be prepared for a big goofy dog who will still act like a puppy later in life!Originally posted by Cameo";p="
You'll have loads of fun with a boxer.
PLECOS SUCK!

Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
White boxers or even boxers where more than 1/3 of their body is white are not a breed standard even though 25% of boxer puppies born are born with white fur or more than 1/3 of their bodies covered with white fur. Deafness is not only more common in white boxers but other breeds as well.Originally posted by Cameo";p="
White boxers are just as amazing pets as a fawn or brindle dog and you would be more than happy with either.Comment

Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
yes the white hair is a weird reason that alot of breeds are deaf that are white. weird. by the way i did look at the lone star boxer rescue. problem is they pick the dog for you not u pick the dog. they come to your house, interview you, and bring dogs over and they pick the one they want you to have not you getting to pick. so i told them that if they wanted me to adopt one im picken and noones comin to my house or they can go to hell and have better luck findin another fool. its a dog people. not a freakin endangered animal or something.Comment

Be very careful purchasing pups at this time. The parvo cases are starting to trickle in. Soon, we'll be seeing 4-5 cases a day. :(PLECOS SUCK!

Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
i have been breeding and showing apbt's for 13 years and i worked as a vet tech for 2 years parvo does not effect pups according to the time of year you just have to buy from a breeder that keeps a clean yard and vaccinates his dogs. parvo is a very nasty disease and it is highly contagious even a fully vaccinated pup can get parvo if it comes in contact. the only thing that kills parvo is bleach not hot weather or cold weather. boxers AKA walking tumor factories are funny and pretty dogs but unfortunately they do have many health problems.Comment

Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
I have been working at a veterinary clinic for the past 17 years. Because of the high stray population in the neighborhood we practice in and the misinformation that was circulated a few years ago by the media concerning vaccines for cats and dogs [clients were bringing in that newspaper article as if it was a notarized legal document or their bible], as well as unscrupulous breeders who claim that their 6 week old pups are "completely vaccinated/had all their shots", when we start seeing a few cases of parvo here, we soon see many more. It's an observation made at my workplace from my many years here. This may be different at other practices in different neighborhoods. But you are right, it's not due to the time of year. But parvo does seem to have a snowball effect here in the Heights. And agreed, boxers are FUNNY dogsOriginally posted by james";p="
I love how they wag their entire rump, not just their tail stub. There's one boxer who come to this clinic who does this funny dance when he walked on to the scale to get a current weight. :wink:

Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
Wow, I never knew my neighborhood was considered a slum 8O . I have five lots for sale there for about a half mil, anyone want to write me a check for them?
I will do without personally if one of my pets needs medical attention. Prevention is the key, vaccinations and regular exams.Reasoning with some people is like trying to nail jello to a wall...Comment

Re: ANYONE KNOW ANYONE WHO HAS BOXER PUPPIES?
I know opinions are like belly buttons.....everyone has one.....but I've just retired from breeding and showing purebred dogs after 39 years. PLEASE, PLEASE do your homework BEFORE you vaccinate your dog. And, PLEASE do not feed ANY commercial foods. I've raised more than 15 litters on low vaccinations and raw food and I do not have sick animals. All of my top winning Specials were raised this way, traveling all over the US and numerous countries in Europe and none were ever ill or sick.
I know all this may go against everything you know but I would NEVER steer you wrong. If you'd like more information, please feel free to contact me privately and I'll do everything I can to educate you. It's really simple and easy and less expensive, and your dog will LOVE you for it.
