QUESTION: i have an akc female boxer and i am alittle worried about her narrow face, would like to know what you think.  she is about 8 weeks here with our male who we think is beautiful

ANSWER: If I were you, I would question the full-blood Boxer. Do you have her AKC papers?

She really looks like a mix, although some Boxers are more narrow than others.

I have a female that is narrow and a male that is short and wide.

But the puppy looks like "something" else is mixed in.

QUESTION: yes we have akc papers on her,  her mother was a white boxer and father is a brindle if that makes a difference. here is an another pic of her.

ANSWER: She IS NOT purebred Boxer.

I am sorry, but the breeder/seller registered her under false pretenses.

She is mixed- her sire (father) is another breed entirely.

The people that sold her told AKC false facts (who the sire was) in order to register them and sell puppies for more money.

Somewhere in there is another breed.


Have you seen the entire litter? And if so, that does not mean they have the same sire (father) because each puppy can have a different father. She does.

QUESTION: yes we are questioning the pure of the first puppy i talked about, we will have dna testing on her, our vet could not believe in two different pic. of her,  we have bought another female and would like to know what you think of her. she is alittle smaller framed but still so loving

Answer
That puppy in the picture is NOT purebred Boxer at all! It is something mixed.

Google "Boxer puppies" and go to breeders websites where they have a picture gallery of puppies for sale and you will see exactly what a Boxer puppy looks like and characteristics it is suppose to have.

Join boxerworld.com and go into the forums and also the picture gallery of pictures that Boxer owners upload. Join boxerforums.com too.

Apparently you are not familiar with the breed because this is the second puppy you've shown that is mixed breed.

You can only buy a purebred Boxer puppy for $500 and up---- up to $1800 or more.
