Boxers are a very devoted, energetic, inquisitive and social breed. Because of their loyalty they make great watch dogs.
Boxers can sometimes be stubborn, making training more difficult than other breeds.  To resolve this obedience training is particularly important. For this reason professional dog walking companies such as London dog walkers are often asked to help Boxers respond better to positive reinforcement training such as training with a clicker. Whilst a caring and protective dog, they are powerful so carefully monitor when kids are about. They are prone to separation anxiety and are easily bored, combined with requiring a lot of exercise, results them in not being a good choice if you cannot give them the time they need.
They evolved from an old battling breed called the Assyrian Molossian, that was fought in battles. This dog arrived Germany in the 1700s this was called the Bullenbeisser and used for its power, even in boar and bear hunting. It further developed into a general utility dog. When the Bullenbeisser and English Bulldog  in the nineteenth century  the resultant offspring was the Boxer. The name Boxer was coined because of the way they pawed at the air or ground during play.
They are an extremely well-liked dog, constantly in the top 10 breeds in most countries.
Boxers are strongly built and are sixty centimetres  ( two feet) at the shoulder and have an average weight of 30-35 kgs ( 60-80 pounds). As a breed Boxers are part of the Working dog group.
Boxers heads are very distinctive, with short broad skulls with very powerful jaws and a square muzzle. The lower jaw protrudes beyond the upper jaw. Boxers were often docked and cropped, which is now prohibited in most countries. In the UK there is a naturally short tailed (bobtail) version that has been bred, and though accepted in the UK kennel club, this trait disqualifies the breed in many countries.
They are simple to groom with their somewhat short hair and that they shed little, so only require occasional brushing, a couple of times a week, to keep their fur in good condition. The [normal~ typical] colours are fawn and brindle, with a paler or white underbelly and the front paws, which may extend to the face and neck and all four feet. If they have more then a third white, they are known as white boxers. White boxers are about a quarter of all births. They are not albinos, but they do suffer from a higher risk of sunburn and associated skin cancers. Being observant of the condition of the dog, the faeces and skin is important dog care. The extreme piebald white marking gene, also results in [eighteen 18]   percent of white Boxers suffering from deafness. Boxer clubs have banned white boxers from being shown and breeding.
Boxers live around ten years on average.
There are certain hereditary problems such as hip and heart related problems and seem to suffer from cancer more than many breeds, with a UK survey showing that nearly forty percent of Boxer deaths were due to cancer.
They are a great breed so if you have the time and energy for them, go find one!
