Boxers are silly, sweet and mischievous. They clown around with family and friends, are patient and playful with children, but show a deliberate and wary face to strangers, responding with unmatched courage to anything that threatens their loved ones. Those characteristics are why people love them.
It’s been often said that dogs are the only creatures on earth that love you more than they love themselves. Well, Boxers are no exception!
But sometimes, we take our furry friends and wonderful companions for granted. There are important life lessons that are sometimes easy to forget in our hectic lives, that all Boxer owners must never forget.
If we want to pay back the favor and give them the best life possible, these 20 important reminders should serve you well as awesome Boxer owners. The last one (#20) brought me to tears…
Check out the 20 Things All Boxer Owners Must Never Forget on the next page:

We had to say goodby to our beautiful almost 7 years old Nikki 3 days ago. She had cancer and it progressed quickly… we were with her until the very end. Loved her dearly and always will! #20 hits home….

So sorry to hear about your loss. We also had to make that decision for our Boxer boy, George Foreman. He also had heart issues and strokes, the last one paralyzed him and at his age of almost 12 years, it was the awful choice that had to be made. Prayers for you and your sweet pooch.

As hard as it is I have always thought the most important job as a fur parent is knowing when it is there time to cross but its never easy. I have had to make that same decision over the years, I have 6 dogs now and I have 13 cremated loves of my life in my house some passed on there own some not but they are remembered every day here are 2 of my boxers Pew the dark one and K.O. the fawn
