START TO KNOW

Boxers are good watch dogs. They are very strong and like to run in open spaces. They come in various colors like fawn, brindle, fawn-brindle mix, white, black, black-white mix, white-fawn mix, and brindle-white mix. Males are 23-25 inches at the withers (tops of the shoulders) and the females are 21 1/2- 23 1/2 inches at the withers. The boxer was bred in Germany and was originally bred for bull-bating and dog fights, but when that was ruled out they were used as hunting dogs and farm dogs and just regular house pets. The boxer was first called the brabanter bullenbaiser.
