Pet Paws >> Care your dog’s Paws


Did you know that pet Paws can be a problem area for dogs. What do you feel on the soles of your feet when you walk the streets for a whole day? What hurt? Try to imagine if you walk with your feet without protected by shoes or bare feet? Of course your feet will be scratched, scuffed, and even hurt. This is experienced by your pet Paws. For example dog Paws. Your pet is walked all day, playing, and even run without covered by the foot or shoe pads. Although you rarely pay attention to this, of course, is enough to make the pet Paws suffer and feel pain, can make your pet Paws hurt, scarred, bleeding and even their feet are not covered by footwear.

Is not that pet paws strong? From the first pet Paws in this world are not covered by any base? I know you will think it, but not in earlier times they did not know of marble, highways, asphalt, concrete, and chemicals that they are often trampled in the present.

The best solution? A mixture of equal parts lanolin and petroleum jelly. By rubbing this mixture into your pet's paws it will not only moisturize the dry skin, it will also act as a barrier cream that can be used in the winter months to protect your dog from street salt. If your dog is unfortunate enough to suffer from paws are cracked add a teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide to the mix and it will help to heal the cracks while adding the extra benefit of helping to prevent any infection. And if doggy should decide to lick his/her wounds, don't worry. Both mixtures are 100% safe.

Cats For Adoption>>Reasons to Choose a Rescue Dog or Cat

Reasons to Choose a Rescue Dog or Cat

Those of us who volunteer in rescue all have at least one rescue and we know what terrific pets they can be! Here are some reasons to consider a rescue if you are ready to add a new pet to your family.

You're not starting from scratch with an older pet - When you buy a puppy, you're essentially bringing an infant into your home... a completely untrained, unsocialised little critter who thinks the crate you bought for him is a jail (and who cries to get out... at 3 AM!), the newspaper you put down for him to squat on is a wonderful toy to be shredded, your new shoes are much tastier than rawhide, and your best carpet is an excellent substitute for grass when nature calls!

Most rescue dogs have been house dogs in the past, come with some basic manners and may have even been living with a foster family to teach them the ropes.

An older cat most likely will be content being alone - a perfect match for someone who has an active lifestyle.

The bond is strong - Contrary to the belief that an adult dog cannot bond with a new family, a dog that has been abandoned once is usually eager to become part of a loving pack, where they feel safe and secure, and are likely to act accordingly. We find that rescue dogs are generally eager to please their new owners. Animals rescued from puppy mills often want to be in your lap at all times and will follow you from room to room, just to be near you.
Adult cats may sleep at the foot of your bed, in a cozy spot in your bedroom or under your bed. A kitten will most likely run around all night climbing and play attacking anything low enough to jump on - including you.

Fewer vet fees - Rescue pets have had physical examinations, have been desexed and are up to date on shots. When you buy a puppy or kitten, you pay for the pet AND for the vaccinations, desexing and other medical expenses.
What you see is what you get - When you buy a baby pet, you can never really be sure what type of adult you're going to get.

All puppies are cute and playful, but their adult personalities aren't visible until they're about two years old. So you don't know whether you're getting a dog who wants to play all the time (ALL the time!) or a couch potato. When you rescue a dog, you know what the dog's personality is like and whether it fits with what you want in a dog companion. You also know in advance about any problem areas you, as the new owner, will have to address.

A cat's personality has already been developed by the time it's one year old. A lap cat will continue to be a lap cat and it is easy to determine if the new cat will work out in a multi-cat household. With an adult cat, you definitely know what you're getting.

Adult pets are generally better for families - Adult pets generally are better with kids. Pups and kittens can play rough and cause harm to children by biting, nipping or scratching. When excited, large breed pups can knock children over accidentally. Children sometimes handle animals too roughly and can cause harm.

Adult pets are more mellow and more able to get themselves out of harms way and because of this are often more patient with children.

It teaches your kids good values - Face it - we live in an extremely materialistic society, in which TV teaches kids that everything can be bought, that they should get their parents to buy them everything, and that anything worth having costs a lot of money. Adopting a rescue pet for your family presents a wonderful opportunity to teach your children basic values of compassion and caring, and also about the value of second chances.

Adopt Puppy>>Guide When You Will Get / Saving Puppy

How big is your desire to have a puppy?

So you want to have a puppy? Did you so want it? Wake up early on a sunny Sunday, and took a walk in the rain? Are you ready to always spend time with your puppy?

Thing to remember when we first decided to adopt puppys, adult puppys or older puppys is that puppys will always be with us for years to come.

Adoption Puppy Process

Before you visit a shelter, you should have prepared your home to welcome puppy of your choice. For example, by providing items needed to make it easier to adapt to new environments.

Try and try again

Visit the shelter as often as possible, the goal so you can find the puppy of your choice, try to not expect to find Puppys 'dream' on the first visit. It is important to find the right puppy for you and the owner the right to Puppys.

Make a small note to contain important information you need to know. Even if you can bring a digital camera as well. Some shelters may not allow you to take pictures, but most will give permission. Sometimes by looking at records and observe some of the pictures can help convince you with your choices.

Dog shelter

Most Dogs adopted from shelters are not children Dogs. In fact, dogs adopted an average age of 2-3 years or more. Wherever you go, you'll find a lot of dog shelters like a comfortable home. There are many benefits when we adopted the dog from the pound. We have saved more than one dog by giving more space to the other dog, or give to another dog to stay alive in the shelter any longer and give him a chance for adoption. Another valuable aspect is the establishment of a special bond between the owner of the dog with a rescued dog.

What kind of puppy you want?

Many things to consider such as whether the dog will be adopted from a shelter is a dog that is specially dikembangbiakan. Suppose you want a Labrador dog. You certainly will find lab-rottie an enchanting, or maybe you'll find Dogs workers, which means you need another type of dog again. The best is to seek as much knowledge before you visit the shelter, so you do not fall in love with the wrong dog for you.

Adopt Dog>>Choose Cute Dog Adobtions

For dog lovers, you are very fond of cute dogs and sweety.I recommend that you save a cute puppy from a dog adopted from a rescue dog, or a shelter dog who was assured. So important that you carefully in choosing a pet shelter or pet rescue.

There are so many shelter dogs / rescue dogs that offers a lot of fun for the dog you have, but to find a pet shelter there are several considerations should be noted.

Shelters are stressful places to visit, with lots of dogs jammed into small, harshly lit, noisy spaces. The surroundings can make dogs depressed, anxious, even manic, so it's often hard to know what they're really like.
Still, it's possible--and so rewarding--to find your new best friend in one of those cages. Here's how to go about it.

Some questions for shelters dog
Keep in mind that you won't always get good answers. Shelters that focus more on animal control than adoption may know very little about the dogs. And an employee who hopes to save a dog who's tugging on her heartstrings may not give you the full story.
Still, these are questions worth asking.

  • Why is the dog here? A stray is an unknown, but if a dog was given up, you'll want to know why. It may have nothing to do with the dog--a move, a divorce, an allergy--or it may be a behavior problem. Behavior problems are often treatable, but it's good to know about them up front.
  • Does the dog have any known medical issues? It's better to know in advance if you'll be facing large vet bills.
  • What's the best thing about this dog? What's the worst thing about this dog? You'll learn more than if you simply ask if a dog is nice or well behaved.
  • Has the dog been temperament tested? Temperament tests try to gauge a dog's personality and catch red flags such as object guarding and aggression. But take the results with a grain of salt: they're more a snapshot of a dog's behavior at the moment of the test than a lifetime guarantee.
i suggest, if you will saving a cute dog from pet rescue, maybe better you choose a not-for-profit organisation Pet Rescue

We know that puppies are cute animals with physical forms that are smaller than a dog. With a small physical form is then possible puppies vulnerable of the dangers. Therefore important for us to provide extra supervision and care of our puppies. The decision to make puppies for adobtion not an easy thing. There are many people who want to have puppies, then they adopt or buy puppies from breeder, but soon they felt sorry, because they are not healthy puppies . they will spend a lot of costs for caring for puppies that are sick. This is because they did not choose the correct puppies when they will adopt or buy puppies.

Health Problems In Puppies

Because their immune systems are still being developed, newborn puppies are very susceptible to health problems. To prevent the possibility of infection or other health problems, puppies must be well cared for. Colostrum, the antibody rich first milk of the puppy's mother, is vital to the puppy's health, so getting the puppy to take as much as possible is important. Caring for an orphaned puppy.
Another big puppy healthy problem a pet owner might face is taking care of an orphaned puppy. If the puppy's mother dies or, for any number of reasons, does not have any milk, the difficult job of caring for and feeding the puppy falls on the owner.

How will you choose your next puppies? •
Adopted pets have been examined by a vet and have usually been given a clean bill of health

Shelters can often give impartial information about a dog’s background, and its temperament

Adopting a pet frees space in the shelter for another dog to be saved and adopted out. When you adopt a dog / puppies you can be sure that the staff at the shelter has had the dog / puppies examined by a vet for diseases and parasites and that the dog has had its shots. This is not always true of dogs acquired by other means such as taking on an older dog from a private advertisement (“Dog Free to Good Home”).

The puppies at a shelter don’t consist only of strays or dogs that have been cruelly abandoned, but are often turned in to the shelter by former owners for various reasons. Adopting a dog could very well not only save the dog’s life, but it allows the shelter to bring in another dog in its place.


How To Choose The Right Dog Breeder

There are several types of dog breeders. The puppies this breeder produces will often be more expensive than other puppies, but there are several advantages to buying one. These breeders test their dogs for common genetic diseases and they only breed their best dogs, because they are breeding dogs to acquire a new generation of champions.

The second type of dog breeder is usually called a backyard breeder. These breeders rarely show dogs and often have a litter of puppies just because they want other people to have a dog just like theirs.
The final type of dog breeder is often called a puppy mill breeder. These breeders have many different breeds of dogs and often breed their females until the dogs become run down and die. Obviously, you want to find a good dog breeder. Fortunately, if you look for signs of a good breeder and ask the breeder the right questions, you should be able to tell if you've found a good breeder.

Puppies Adoption>>Pros & Cons Have Puppies Adoption

Having puppies is fun. Puppies have a very funny shape, small and cute. There are many ways to have puppies. Able to adopt puppies from the adoption center or you can buy puppies from breeder. But before we decide to have a cute puppies there are several considerations that we need to know. Some of the considerations that will try my resume as a pros & cons of a puppies.

Pros

Adopting your own puppy give you total control of how behaved it will turn out. Great opportunity to bond from the beginning and watch your puppy grow with you just like a child. You will meet new people, grab lots of attention, everyone loves puppies.

Cons
  • Getting your puppy trained for indoors can be very difficult. Expensive Food, proper medicine and treatments, bedding, toys etc.
  • Furniture can be destroyed if you are not keeping a close eye on your puppy at all times.
  • You must have the spare time to take the puppy out for daily exercise. If you don't the puppy will act crazy indoors with all the energy it has.
Make sure you are seriously ready to adopt a puppy.

Once you know the weaknesses and strengths in having puppies you can decide whether you are ready to care for puppies, or maybe you better get a dog or other pet animal. If you are a very strong desire to have puppies, below I will try to give you an idea where you can adopt / purchase puppies. A place where you get the puppies a great effect on the future growth of puppies, so you can consider anything following

Where we Buy Puppies?
It's easy to find people with puppies to sell. If you want to be sure about the character and health of your dog your best bet is to choose a reputable breeder. If you are serious about finding a good purebred dog then here are some tips for choosing a good breeder.

  • Reputable breeders know a lot about the breed they specialize in.
  • Some breeders have puppies booked years in advance.
  • Breeders will usually look to help their breed.
  • Also notice if they will take a puppy back if for some reason the buyer can’t take care of it.
  • The most obvious clues about the quality of the breeder is by looking at the puppies themselves.

Puppies are a product of their upbringing and a healthy puppy will have a pleasant temperament as well as a healthy look. If you are buying over the internet see if the breeder can send you a video of your puppy.
The environment in which the puppies are kept will also tell you a lot about the standard of the breeder. If the environment is clean and the puppies have space then it is more likely that the breeder is a good one.
It's a good idea to talk and find out about your intended breeder before seeing the puppies. Most Puppy millers wouldn’t have time for this. If a breeder is good then they will be just as concerned about figuring out if you are going to be a good dog owner. A good breeder cares a great deal about the puppies and the homes they are sent out into.

Any puppy that comes from a backyard or puppy mill can be a dangerous buy. A backyard breeder will know little about the breed standards. Often they don't maintain puppy’s health properly. Puppy mills produce large amounts of puppies often in horrible conditions. Puppy mills often sell directly to pet stores. For this reason it is best to avoid puppies bought from pet stores. When choosing a breeder look find out how many breeds they breed. If a breeder breeds more then this most likely the person started out with one. Most reputable breeders will not let there puppies go before they turn eight weeks of age or more depending on the breed. This varies among the breeds.

Small or Older Dogs for adobtion

In taking the decision to adopt a dog, there are many things that need to be considered, apart from the cost of living pets, animal care, as well as the age problem of the dog for adobtion we will adopt. because of age will also affect the physical size of the dog that we will adopt. The size and age of the dog that we will adopt is an important consideration when we decide to adopt a dog, because of course we must prepare for a comfortable place in the family and our environment to take care of our pets animal.

In this article I've written some of our considerations in determining the age and size of the dog when we will choose dogs for adobtion from a pet shelter

Small Dogs Good With Kids

Most small dogs good with kids are not just born that way. How are the kids with the small dogs or any dog? Any dog, large breed or small can be great or totally untrustworthy .The real key to how a dog reacts to people, places and things is how the dog was socialized from the beginning. How kids play with the dog must be considered also. Small dogs for adoption
If a dog has never been around children than they may be frighten by the kids activity. Kids always want to pick up and hug small dogs but if they are use to children than they may get bitten. The child was terrified and the dog was in agony. That is why you should not have a tiny dog with kids.
When considering dogs good with kids don't forget you must teach your children how to handle any size dog. Children do not understand about animals unless they are taught and teaching them is very important.

Small Dogs For Adoption - Bring Home a New Part of the Family

You may be thinking about adopting a dog, dogs make excellent pets and they come in all sizes. However, it's the small dogs that really charm us with their cute little mannerisms and their attempts at appearing big. If you're looking for small dogs for adoption, there are so many great places to look. For example, there's always the pet stores such as Petsmart or Pet City. There are tons of places to find great dogs to adopt. Sometimes, people were just not ready for the full commitment a dog comes with. How about the local animal shelter or the county pound? These are places that spend their entire time trying to get dogs without a home, into a home.

Should You Adopt an Older Dog? - Help For Owners of Older Dogs

There are so many pluses to raising your pet dog from puppyhood. What I intend to do here is simply present key benefits of adopting an older dog, even a senior dog. My motivation is two-fold: Because of the wonderful experiences I've had adopting older dogs; and, my very strong conviction that these abandoned animals are so deserving of a second chance and saved from euthanasia.

And keep in mind that dogs are abandoned for lots of reasons, like: death of a guardian, owner's old age, new baby, change in work schedules, job transfers, a move into a "no-dogs allowed" housing complex, kids off to college, allergies, new spouse isn't a "dog person". I'm sure you've already thought of some of the obvious negatives of adopting an older dog. Here are the three big ones that went through my head before I adopted my first rescue dog:

Dogs from a rescue shelter can come with some baggage. Just plain old time. Your older dog will have fewer years to bring you joy than a brand new pup. Health issues. Your older dog may have already begun showing the signs of age. What I would prefer to do is to focus on the positive attributes associated with adopting an older rescue dog. I also peppered the list with several testimonials I pulled off of the more popular rescue dog web sites.

It's your chance to provide an older dog with the best years of his life. In return, you will be rewarded with a grateful dog's unwavering devotion and a whole lot of pleasurable times.
I believe that older dogs deserve happiness and love and a good home as much as younger dogs. Love knows no age." -- Nadine Killion, Taunton, MA
"Adopting a senior dog has been one of the best things I have ever done. I've enjoyed so many of the advantages of an older dog -- such as his being more settled and already housetrained. Older dogs also appreciate love and attention more so than a puppy. "Many people criticized me for adopting such an old dog.

Determine Before Decision Dogs Adoption

Guide for dogs adoption

Dog adoption is not something to be taken lightly or without forethought, especially if you plan to give a home to a shelter dog.

One way you can help fewer dogs be put to sleep is adopting a dog from a shelter. Make sure you select a dog that you and your family get along with.

Check over any dog who seems to take a liking to you and your family. A quaint myth that any dog will grow up well if it's raised well is just that - a myth. You never know what kind of dog you will end up with when you go through the dog adoption process at the local shelter. You don't know if he has medical issues now, or if he will in the future. Adult shelter dogs are much easier to consider when you're ready to adopt. You may be saving an adult dog's life. If you're not sure how to decide what dog will work best for you and your family, take a "dog person" with you.

Dog Adoption Centers

Just about every city and town across the nation has animal shelters, where you can choose a loving, caring pet that needs a new home. What should you look for when you choose a dog from dog adoption centers?

  1. Find out what types of services they offer, such as neutering and micro-chipping the dog before they adopt them out . Many dog adoption centers now perform many of these services as part of the adoption fee, so it makes sense to adopt from a center that offers the most services for the dog you plan to adopt.
  2. Ask about fees, and guarantees up front. How much do they charge to adopt a dog, and do they guarantee the health of the dog? Do they know the background of the dog, and why it was surrendered for adoption? If not, the dog may have behavioral issues that are more than you can handle as an owner.
  3. Make sure the facility and the pens are clean, with proper amounts of food and water for the dogs.
  4. Look for a dog adoption center that asks a lot of questions of you, the prospective owner, too. Good dog adoption centers screen potential pet owners to make sure you're ready and able to care for a new pet.
  5. If the adoption center can't provide a few people as references, it may not be the right dog adoption center for you.

The best dog adoption centers have good local reputations, and truly care about the health and well being of the dogs they adopt out. Don't choose dog adoption centers by fee only. Some centers may charge lower fees, but may not offer as much for your adoption dollar. The best centers offer spaying or neutering, microchips for identification, a clean bill of health, and even free food or other incentives when you adopt.


You could be another dog adoption success story!

Parasites And Your Pet Dogs Health

It's on every pet dog owner's agenda to protect and see to it that their pet dogs has the best possible opportunity to stay healthy. External parasites such as, fleas, Ticks, Lice, as well as different types of Mites are the culprits that tend to threaten the health of our pets (dogs, cats).

Out of the parasites mentioned above Fleas is the number 1 most common pest. Fleas live off your dog's blood. There is no mistaking a flea infestation on your pet (dog, cat). Dogs with allergies suffer much more significant negative reactions to a flea infestation, and usually develop "hot spots".


These hot spots are areas of sore, inflamed, flaking, bleeding, and infected skin, caused by the flea saliva and your pet dog's own reaction to it. If you groom him with a flea comb (which is like a fine-tooth comb), try wiping it on a paper towel: if red blotches show up on the towel, you know that your dog has fleas (on a white background like a paper towel, flea poop shows up red: since fleas subsist on blood, their poop is colored accordingly).

An adult flea lays hundreds of eggs per day. Each egg will then become an adult flea, which lay hundreds more eggs of its own. One flea can become a major problem very quickly!

Fleas actually spend a small amount of time on your pet dog, and the rest of their time leaping through your house laying eggs and feeding on human blood, it's not enough to just treat your pet dog: you also have to target his bedding, the entire house, all human bedding, and the yard (yes, fleas lay eggs all through the yard, too. You'll need a broad-spectrum treatment which kills not only the adult fleas (which are the ones that bite), but also any developing fleas, and the eggs.

A particular benefit of prescribed flea treatment is that most are also designed to prevent other parasites (like mites, ticks, and heartworm) from affecting your pet dog.

If your dog already has fleas, you have two options: You can 'bomb' the house and yard with a flea-pesticide. A more health-friendly alternative is to target your pet dog with a topical anti-flea solution prescribed by the vet (like Advantage or Revolution), and to rigorously clean the house on a regular basis until the flea problem has gone. Flea collars are no longer recommended as a safe option for flea prevention, since the collars are highly toxic - vets have realized that placing a toxic material directly against your pet's skin for long periods of time (flea collars have to be worn 24/7 to be effective) is detrimental to your dog's health.

Basic Cosiderations Indoor to outdoor dog kennels

dog kennels(src:http://www.great-pyrenees.us)

dog kennels|-. Selecting the right dog kennel can be difficult, especially if it’s something you’ve never purchased before. But once you have a better understanding of the reasons why purchasing a dog kennel makes sense, it’ll be easier to know which type is right for your dog.

First of all, unlike what some people believe, putting a dog inside a dog kennel is not inhumane. The enclosed environment actually offers many dogs a sense of comfort, especially if a kennel is used from a young age. Think of it as the dog’s home, the place where it can go to relax and unwind. Better yet, think of today’s kennel as a modern remake of the traditional doghouse, updated for the 21st century.

Second, a dog kennel gives a dog owner a sense of relief knowing that while gone, the bored dog won’t fill its time destroying the rest of the house or the yard. In addition, if you plan to travel with your pet companion, a kennel is an absolute necessity.

Third, a dog kennel is an invaluable training tool. When a dog is locked inside, it learns to control its bowel movements. How? Dogs by nature don’t like to relieve themselves in the same place where they sleep. Learning to “hold it” until it’s allowed out of the kennel is one of the most effective, and humane, methods of house training any dog.

The last real consideration is whether you want a kennel designed for outdoors or indoors. Both types are readily available. Inside kennels are fairly basic. They’re rectangular in shape and usually made with wire or plastic and they’ll have a secure locking mechanism.

Outdoor models range from basic to luxurious, literally, and you’ll find wide a range in price. Like anything, the more features the dog kennel has, the more it will cost. If you plan on keeping dogs for years to come, you’re better off spending a bit more on a well-constructed dog kennel that will last long and that will accommodate your dog’s changing needs.

Great Pets are Boxer Dogs

The great thing about dogs is that everyone has their own personal opinion of what they look for in a dog. Boxer dogs for instance to some may look ugly but for other, they just see past this and see them for what they are, a great loving pet.
What makes a good dog varies by nature but generally people look for the following aspects when choosing a dog:
• Boxer intelligence — Boxer dogs are extraordinarily smart dogs. Obviously training plays a large part in growing their skills but generally they do have a good intelligent brain.
Boxer dogs are easy to train — Some dogs can be almost untrainable, even by experts. So choosing a dog that is known to be easy to train is vital in most peoples eyes. Boxers are very versatile and agile in nature and once they mature enough are very, very affectionate to their owners.
• Boxers are easy to look after — Let's face it, looking after a dog is not always an easy task. Especially when they are young and need house training as well as obedience training. Not to mention cleaning them when they come in covered in mud! Boxer dogs have a short hair so are very easy to clean and do not shed too much hair, so they are quite easy to look after.

Boxers Aren't The Prettiest Dogs

People don't always look at how pretty or nice looking a dog is. That's a good thing when it comes to boxer dogs! They have a face that only a mother would love. Yes, harsh maybe but they are certainly not the prettiest of dogs. But when it comes to being obedient, they certainly make up for any downfalls of looks.

So if you are looking for a dog that is easy to train, very obedient and relatively easy to look after then a boxer dog is an easy choice to make. If however, you are the type of person that wants a dog to look pretty and nice then a boxer dog may not be the ideal choice. Whatever you choose, just remember a dog is for life and you must care for it.

By nature, Boxer dogs are working dogs.

- hunting dog
- police dog
- seeing-eye dog for the blind
- guard dog
- circus dog

The American Kennel Club (AKC) categorizes dogs into 7 groups of herding, hound, non-sporting, sporting, terrier, toy and working. And the largest breed registered in the working dog category is the Boxer.
No doubt the Boxer Dogs make for great utility dog but the greatest advantage to owning one is that Boxer Dogs can be your most outstanding companion on four legs and great source of personal fulfillment.
The Boxer Dog's history could be traced back to feudal Germany, where it was a small hunting dog that could tenaciously hold onto a bull, boar, or bear till the master arrived. It was also a utility dog for peasants and shop owners, and even a performing dog in circus.
The Boxer Dogs as we know it today is a bigger breed – a mixture of the German Boxer with a taller, more elegant English import. Handsome dog: Within the canine world, Boxer Dogs are medium-sized dog standing at 21 to 25 inches at the shoulder for a full-grown female, and weighs some 50 to 65 pounds. The male can be taller and 15 pounds heavier.

The ears are cropped and erect that enhance its hearing – the Boxer most developed sense. It is always alert and vigilant, an instinctive guard dog. The shortened muzzle makes hot and humid weather uncomfortable for the Boxer Dogs. The short coat cannot protect him well from extreme elements of the weather and thus Boxer Dogs should definitely not be kept outdoors. It is a housedog, sensitive to temperature extremes, does not enjoy the draft, summer heat or cold.
Boxer Dogs come in attractive basic colors of fawn and brindle. The fawn varies from a tawny tan to an especially beautiful stag red. In the US, however, the American Boxer Club members are pledged not to register, sell or use these “whites” for breeding so as to retain the beauty of the true fawn and brindle colors in the breed.

Personality-wise, Boxer is a cool dog that will not bark without cause. Its expressive face – the furrowed forehead and dark, soulful eyes - is a charming quality that sets the Boxer apart from other breeds. In exceptional cases the Boxer can live up to 15 years.

Boxer Dogs As Pet

Being a big and strong dog as well as a highly intelligent one, Boxer Dogs need both physical and mental stimulations to keep them even-tempered and dignified while still keeping dogs impish spirit and fearless courage in tact.
