Boxane

Foofy has been a most excellent dog. She weighs about 100 lbs, and looks a lot like a Great Dane. When she meets a pure Great Dane in person, it's clear that she is more compact and stocky, but she still has those long legs, and the Great Dane lean, and that habit of putting her back paws against her chin. She is definitely more Great Dane than Boxer, but I think her Boxer side has made her more energetic and playful. She loves to run around like an idiot, either chasing, or being chased, and she loves to chase a sprinkler. She does not like to play fetch, and she doesn't really have any use for dog toys. I've had dogs who loves to play tug rope, or who would play with a squeaky toy until they destroyed it. Foofy has saved a lot of money, I guess, since there is no point in buying her toys. She did enjoy tennis balls when she was younger. Foofy is in no way, shape, or form a water dog. I went swimming in the river one time, with her on shore, and she never got more than about knee deep before saying nope. I've had dogs who loved to swim, and would dunk in any water, but Foofy is not one of those dogs. She will occasionally play with a stick briefly, but she doesn't really like to play fetch, and loses interest very quickly. I had a black lab who would try to walk through the front door with a telephone pole in his mouth, if he could pick the thing up. Not so with Foofy. Really, she is pretty chill, and pretty low maintenance. She does like to run and play, and she likes to go to stores that allow dogs, and just sniff other dogs, and all the places other dogs have been. Mostly, however, she just likes to snuggle, cuddle, and get petties. She loves, loves, loves, loves, loves petties. She could get petties 24/7/365 and it wouldn't be enough petties for my baby princess big old farting puppy. She is a rescue who was in a bad situation as a pup, and she has always been skittish. She isn't aggressive, and neither do people terrify her, but they do make her uncomfortable. Everywhere we go, people want to pet her. She tolerates this, as long as Daddy pets her at the same time, and as long as there aren't too many people at once. One time, on a hike, an entire troop of sweet little girls wanted to pet the beautiful princess puppy, and I had to turn them away, because all of those strange girls at the same time were just too overwhelming for her. I have had many, many dogs over the last 40 years. All of them were loved, and many of them were unique, and memorable. However, I am on this site now, trying to figure out if getting another Boxane is an option. Foofy is old. Large breeds like this don't get much older than 10. In order to avoid getting buried in the same hole she does when that dreaded day comes, I need to start getting a plan together now. I don't know how I could function without this dog in my life. My wife left me. My daughter hates me. I haven't had a date in years. My life is joyless and miserable, except for this big, brindled bundle of fur who greets me when I come home, and follows me everywhere she can. She got too old to jump into the back of a pickup truck, so I bought a Jeep. I bought a four-door, with the back seat just for her. After I lifted it, it was too tall, so everywhere I go, I carry a flight of dog stairs just for her. She is my beloved.

One of the goofiest and sassy breeds to come across. Extremely loyal and friendly. He loves being the centre of attention and loves playing. Very hyper at times but can also be quite lazy.

One big ball of energy. She bounces off the walls (literally) and loves to wrestle, just like a boxer. She definitely has selective obedience, and what I mean by that is she knows not to do something, such as getting into the garbage, but does it anyway and acts like she had no idea she wasn't suppose to do it. But as soon as you turn your head, she's back to doing something bad.

So far so good. She is a very happy, friendly puppy that gets along with everyone. Very easily trained. Such a gorgeous pup that sucks you into cuddles and treats with her beautiful blue eyes.

The best training experience ever. Quick learner, gentle and loving! Wouldn’t get another breed ever

Basically my 1st dog George (an American Bulldog) I loved to pieces. George got cancer and I cared for him until the very end. Brokenhearted, approx. 7 months later, Petey was rescued, and given to me as a gift. I fell in love again! Petey has been such a blessing~ What a wonderful, affectionate dog. Petey occasionally needs to be reminded to be aware that his 'sister' cats Stoney & Mojo are near his feet and to be careful as not to step on anyone. I have caught both cats enjoying a Petey "kiss (aka big-lovey-lick)" from on top of their head(s). Petey has an amazing personality, is extremely intelligent. He has very acute sense to human feelings, and has a HUGE sense of humor.

Lena is a very active dog and her temperament is much better with constant exercise. She LOVES to be outside. She is fiercely loyal. She is good with children, but is large (85 lbs at 12 months) and extremely strong, and doesn’t always understand her strength. She is a squirrel fiend. She is always hungry. Her favorite place to be is sitting on her perch in front of our large window starting at the neighborhood. She has son separation anxiety. She LOVES to run and is very fast. She chews anything on the floor and we haven’t gotten that out of her, yet! She is stubborn but loveable.

I adopted my box and through the local dog foster program, not knowing his breed or his temperament. It wasn’t love at first sight since he was so excited and big and I was not quite used to it. It’s been 3 years since I picked out my baby. I’m so obsessed with him. He’s spoiled greatly. Can’t wait to start taking him for long walks!

We got Zoe Marie from a walmart cart, she's 51/2 no old and brindle color. She's absolutely amazing and loves her barkpark time. She goes every morning from 6am to 8am,comes home eats and naps we're in Vegas so it gets hot here and she gets short walks during the day and bark park at night. She has become my whole world and Zoe makes life worth living again.

I absolutely love my boxane. He is by far the best dog I've ever had. He is my emotional support dog. He is naturally protective but sweet as can be once you get to know. I love this breed and want another some day.

Shes new so shes still learning but shes a teddy bear always wants to cuddle and gets jealous of our other boxer very quickly!!

He is very needy. He loves attention and has a hard time being away from us. He likes to have his cage around you when he sleeps so he feels secure. He does bark when we leave him in another room but other than that he just wants to be wherever we are so car rides are the best.

Harlem is a very big chewer, he chews everything, but, he is only 10 weeks at the moment. He rarely barks, is always full of energy.

My mom adopted kooper 3 months ago he was 47# now he is 99#. He is a little stubborn when it comes to training him, I know he knows what to do but he only does it at his pace. He loves my mini bully mix, she does pretty good with him but he does get on her nerves occasionally lol Very sweet & loving, extremely smart! So glad he is in our family. He was a rescue from hurricane in north Florida last year.

Blue has been one of the best dogs we've owned. Shes very energetic and great with our young kids. She can be jealous at times and loves attention.

Duke was a rescue dog, apparently experienced some abuse, he jumped right into our truck almost as if he picked us. He has been phenomenal with our children and cat. He is super protective of us in general and has a hard time allowing anyone around us. He is quick to want to attack anyone who comes into our area... Which has been the most difficult task for us... He usually warms up to people who come around a few times. He has energy for days!! He's very playful and is an attention hog! We love our little fur guy and wouldn't trade him for anything in this world.

Quiet friendly,protective,cute one

Ellie May is the best dog we’ve ever had!! She is extremely smart & was very easy to train! She gets along with every dog she meets & is very submissive. She has an extremely high level of energy so she loves her zoomies. She has been the best dog for my wife & I, due to the fact that she is always down for whatever- whether it be car rides, hiking, going to the lake, taking a walk, playing at the park- she’s ready to go!!! The only “problem” we’ve encountered with her is she’s extremely shy around people. She’s been that way since we rescued her. She isn’t aggressive at all, but she never wants strangers to touch her. She’s been well socialized & we take her out in public & introduce her to new people, places & pets regularly, but she likes to stick to her family lol would highly recommend this breed to anyone if they can handle the high energy of this breed💛

Scooby is a great dog! He was a rescue and we were told to not leave him in a yard as he is athletic and can jump a fence easily. He does not like water...at all...except to drink. He is dog picky, loves chasing squirrels, lizards, and bugs.He can be mischievous...like getting into things on the counter or opening cabinets so we now Scooby proof the kitchen.He is extremely affectionate...loves to cuddle and even lay his 85 lb body across your lap. He is also extremely protective on our walks...nobody unfamiliar can come withing 5 feet of us.

They are intelligent, loyal, loving , sweet dogs

We found her for sale at a flea market in a cage and had to have her. She was almost 8 weeks and she was very shy. She bonded with my 3 year old male boxer almost instantly. She’s very gentle, extremely affectionate, loves to cuddle her humans and the other fur babies. She is still a bit timid when it comes to loud noises. She has beautiful blue/gray eyes and her coat feels like velvet. She is a bit of a diva and very vocal. She whines when wanting something. Easiest puppy I’ve ever owned.
