Where Every Paw Feels at Home.
Also known as German Boxer
A bouncy, loyal clown who never quite grows up
The Boxer is a muscular, playful working breed that stays puppyish well into adulthood. It bonds closely with its family and loves company, but needs plenty of exercise and steady, patient training to channel all that bounce.

This breed needs about 90 minutes of activity a day. Around 5 sitter-led sessions a week keeps that routine going when work or travel gets in the way.

Best-matched service
About 90 minutes a day, split between brisk walks and play. Without an outlet, a young Boxer can become destructive and hyperactive indoors.
They are usually patient and affectionate with children in their own family. Their size and bounce mean supervision with small kids is wise.
They dislike long absences and can become anxious or destructive. Midday visits or a walker help a lot on working days.
