Boxer Puppy for Sale
It is only possible to find a purebred Boxer Puppy for Sale if you take your time and do a little bit of selective work while choosing a reliable and devoted Boxer breeder. Do not purchase dogs from “puppy mills” – dollar-motivated breeders, who produce large quantities of puppies and pay little attention to their dog’s quality or health. Steer clear of pet stores and street brokers, because they are usually hired by “puppy mills”.
Boxers are known to have descended from the Bullenbeiszer – a large fighter dog of the old times, which is non-existent today. As they are related to the Molosser group, Boxers have a prognathous lower jaw, i. e. it extends beyond the upper jaw. Boxer dogs are medium-sized, males standing 22-25 inches tall at the shoulder, and females measuring 21-24 inches high at the withers. The short and smooth coat comes in different shades of fawn and brindle. Brindle species often have some white, which should not exceed one third of the body.
Boxers are very friendly, communicative and devoted companions. They are usually protective around their loved ones and therefore they can be a little suspicious of strangers. However, they bond easily and it is possible to make friends with a well socialized Boxer after a while. These dogs can keep company for children. They play in a very specific manner, standing on their hind legs and toying with things using their front paws in a cat-like fashion. These dogs appreciate outdoor activities and love to run and play intelligence games. Puppies can be rowdy, so it is important to keep them busy. Breeders who have Boxer Puppies for Sale usually warn their clients about this trait of the dog.
In general, Boxers are healthy and energetic, but there are reasons to be scrupulous in studying each puppy’s pedigree heritage. Some lines show proneness to some hereditary diseases, such as cardiomyopathy, aortic stenosis, serious intestinal disorders, hip dysplasia, patella luxation, and epilepsy. These dogs can also be prone to cancer. Gastric problems are more likely to develop due to poor nutrition, but genetic predisposition is also a common factor. If you feel like you have found a purebred Boxer Puppy for Sale, please, make sure it has a healthy genetic background.
