Instinctively a hearing guard dog, his bearing is alert, dignified, and self-assured. In the show ring his behavior should exhibit constrained animation. With family and friends, his temperament is fundamentally playful, yet patient and stoical with children. Deliberate and wary with strangers, he will exhibit curiosity, but, most importantly, fearless courage if threatened. However, he responds promptly to friendly overtures honestly rendered. His intelligence, loyal affection, and tractability to discipline make him a highly desirable companion.

About puppies:
I know this is probably obvious to most people reading here, however.
Boxer puppies from our program are living beings and not consumable merchandise on a shelf available to anyone with the ability to pay for them.
I do ask that people have knowledge of the breed, (preferably experience), and dog experience as well.
Boxers are active, high drive dogs. As puppies, they love to play, experience new things, and learn. If they are not properly engaged in something active (either mind or body) they will get themselves into all kinds of mischief.
European line boxers are especially high drive and need owners that match their energy. They appreciate any kind of work, including brain work. For those owners who are less active, they do beautiful in learning obedience, tricks, barn hunt, dock diving and fast cat amongst so many other activities. They even appreciate outings to parks, playgrounds and dog friendly cafes. The point is to ‘work’ the dog in some way so that they don’t become restless. They are happy if they have any ‘job’ to do. Even if that job is a down-stay while you drink coffee at a new place they’ve never been.
Please be prepared to actively engage with your Boxer and include them. Especially during their critical puppy socialization windows. This will ensure that you develop a well rounded, fulfilled dog.

2024 UPDATE
Babies expected fall of 2024 with a Go-Home date very close to Christmas. Please fill out the puppy application below to start the process of being matched with a puppy. After receiving your application, we will talk about your expectations more in depth about what you are wanting in a Boxer long term and what your goals are. All puppies are temperament evaluated at several points in their development. My goal is to match the puppies with the homes that are best suited for their personalities. If you want an agility friend for example, I would look for those traits in the puppies to screen out ones that wouldn't enjoy it as much.
FAQ: Yes I take your coat color and gender preferences into high consideration of course! The reality is that these are not factory made products but living beings. I'm a very small breeder so it's important to me more about matching to ideal families than about selling to customers for profits. I hope people are understanding about this concept as it is part of being responsible with the breed as a whole.
Our ideal family will be flexible with things like color markings and be more concerned with whether the puppy is suited for their home and lifestyle. That being said, I hope to meet everyone's expectations in every way including colorings and markings.
Thank you for working with us to preserve the Boxer breed.
We may have Boxer babies available in the future. Please contact us to be placed on a waiting list for any upcoming planned litters. We also may have foster babies available on occasion.

A working diet for working dogs
The Boxers here are fed a combination whole prey raw and Homemade diet.
Links to durable safe treats can be found here as well as recipes for homemade appropriate foods to supplement a raw diet.
Performance & working dogs (and high energy dogs in general) require this diet and do not generally do well on kibbled foods.
