The Boxer
The
Boxer is a playful and fun-loving dog, who is also capable of
communicating his feelings with his face. His twinkling black eyes
show his intelligence and emotions. His face wrinkles up into
expressions of curiosity, excitement, happiness, surprise, or
sadness. Boxers particularly love children. They are playful and
patient, but are also strong and defensive, so early obedience
training is important.
