Question
how long does a boxer carry puppies& how does labor start?

Answer
Hi Penny

Gestation is typically 63 days.  Not necessarily from the day you bred, but from when the eggs where fertilized.

For any whelping female, you should have a whelping box lined with old towels, sheet or newspaper, where she can nest.

A sign that labor is at hand is panting and refusing her food.  

Good luck
