One of my favorite things to do is research Boxers. Their personalities
are very unique! They are super, fun loving, crazy animals. Baron has a heart
of gold. He loves his Daddy so much; they are attached at the hip. As we speak,
they are both snuggling on the couch after a couple hours of playing outside in
the heat. My sweet little babies J
Here is some information I found in regards to Boxers and their
personalities!
Personality
“Boxers may look like imposing figures from afar, but up close and
personal they are playful and loving family companions. Often dubbed the Peter
Pan of dogs, Boxers are highly energetic, and as they grow into adulthood, they
never lose the desire to romp and play like a puppy. Perpetual cuddle bugs,
Boxers will try to wriggle into even the smallest spaces possible to get close
to the ones they love. They love to be the center of attention and make a sound
unique to their breed that some owners call a “Woo Woo.” When they want
something they will make this “woo woo” sound to attract an audience” (PetWave,
2014).
“Protective of their family, Boxers are alert and reliable watchdogs,
sounding the alarm that strangers are approaching. Their menacing, muscular
appearance will deter anyone whose intent is not above board. Boxers get along
well with other pets, including cats and make a loving and loyal addition to
any active family” (Petwave, 2014).
Personality Traits
“While Boxer generally tend to get along well with family pets, they can
be aggressive toward other dogs, especially dogs of the same sex. They should
be socialized from puppyhood on to accept doggie visitors as friends” (petwave,
2014).
“Because Boxers feel deep attachments to people, separation anxiety can
develop. Proper levels of physical activity and mental activity can keep
anxiety from being a problem” (petwave, 2014).
This is very true to Baron. He is a cuddle bug, and a great watch dog…
however if someone comes with treats – he is no longer
our watch dog but our drool dog! We love him any ways!
