Looking for boxers

[Bighead]

I know this is a herp forum, but I know you all love animals of all kinds, so I thought I would ask:

I'm finally moving into a place that allows dogs! It's about time! I get weird looks when I tell peope I'm a pet trainer, but I don't have a dog. I am going to get a boxer, but I am a little picky. I want a puppy that doesn't have his or her (pref. female) ears cropped. It has to be an AKC or CKC registered dog, but I'm not going to be showing at all. I'm more concerned about a pure bloodline for temperment and possibly breeding. I'm not worried about tail docking either way. I understand that I will probably have to reserve one before it's born, but I have no problem waiting. Any of you have any leads you might be able to give me?

Don't know of anything specific, but try http://www.dogsincanada.com ... I've had some luck finding breeders through there, they've got a pretty good listing

PS - boxers are amazing! Be sure to post pics if you do find a puppy....

I have a friend who's parents breed them, and they're planning to again this summer, I would have to ask, but I think they're regestered. To bad KS is a long way away...

A good place to start is with the CKC and your local Boxer club. It shouldn't be hard to find a puppy without it's ears cropped. Most breeders leave that up to the owners unless it is a "show" quality dog which comes with a "show" contract. Tail docking and dew claw removal is done at a very young age so the tail will be docked unless you purchase your pup before birth and have that arranged. You shouldn't have too much of a problem getting a female; last time I looked into another boxer, flahsy fawn males were the hardest to get. Good luck, boxers are awesome!

My boxer/rottie or dobbie cross, we're not sure as he is a rescue.
