Boxers are the Best!

Say Hello to Caesar and Cuba

Boxer Rule! (everything else is just a "dog")

Caesar and Cuba are my Boxer babies! Caesar is 6 and Cuba is, well we don't know for sure, but we guess about 8 years old.

I first heard and learned about Boxers from my father. We "D" and I were engaged we decided to get a dog since we'd bought a house and had a yard. I remembered how much my father loved his Boxer Zip. Zipper was from one of the original German lines of Boxers brought to the states in the 50's. Zip had a pedigree but was not a show dog but rather my dad's best friend and constant companion. "D" and I started researching Boxers on the internet and pretty much decided that this was "the dog" for us. Little did we know how deeply we would come to love this breed!

Caesar came into our life as a puppy we purchased him and brought him home at 5 weeks old (much too early in my opinion but....) and he has been my shadow ever since. A year later we came to the realization that rescue groups exsist - did a little research- and then adopted Cuba from BoxAR Rescue.

When we adopted Cuba we got the best dog there is! Since the day she came into our lives she has never had an accident in the house, chewed up anything, and is very well behaved.

If you or anyone you know is interested in adding a dog to their lives please consider adopting a rescue animal. There is a rescue group for nearly every breed of dog in every state. Just check out Petfinder for information by typing in the breed you are interested in along w/your zip code to see what animals are available in your area. www.petfinder.com

Because of my intense love for Boxers I eventually found my way into becoming an active member and volunteer for BoxAR Rescue. Our group rescues Boxers from shelters in our area as well as other situations. We have them vetted, give em some TLC, and find them new homes. Often times these dogs have been neglected, abused, or are just given up for reasons beyond their control. Animals don't have a voice and can't fight back for themselves so I help in my own little way to give them a chance at a new life.
