From the Author:
Dogs 101: Boxer will help you raise the ever-popular Boxer to be a well-behaved beloved family member, as thousands of Boxers are today throughout the world. Each chapter covers a different subject, including breed characteristics, supplies, grooming, health, training and activities.
Anecdotes about the many Boxers I have known appear in each chapter and help you get a feel for this happy-go-lucky breed that is especially devoted to his owner. Elegant and powerful, Boxers are also big lovers, full of fun and mischief. They are really, really smart, in a different way from a Lab or a Border Collie. They have a mind of their own, and are always thinking, so your Boxer will keep you on your toes!
Boxer-lovers are loyal to their breed for good reason. Boxers have been one of the most popular breeds in the United States since the turn of the century. Today's Boxer is not much different from that dog from over a hundred years ago. I have had Boxers living in my home and as guests, and I've always enjoyed their company.
