Boxers

Owning boxer puppies as family pet has started to become popular over the past years. In fact, more and more people are considering owning a boxer per year as evidenced by the increasing number of registration with the American Kennel Club.

When it comes to their temperament and behavior, boxers are considered as a warm breed with a distinct intelligence, friendliness, and a great pet for children. Aside from being a family dog, the boxers are also considered as working dog. Thus, these dogs need to be physically active and love to work and do other physical activities.

In order to bring out the best in your boxer dog, there are some basic training routines that dog trainers do specifically for boxer puppies.

Boxers don’t love getting into trouble. But this doesn’t mean that you don’t have to train your dog. As a general rule, dogs don’t have a concept of morality or simply, they don’t know right from wrong.

In order for your boxer not to develop undesirable and annoying behavior, owners must start the training right from the start. Training the boxers, or any dog for that matter while they are still young is the best approach in making them a nice dog.

When you have decided to commence your training, you should remember to reward positive behavior. As much as possible, emphasize rewarding the desirable behavior than punishing the negative ones.

Since boxers are generally working dogs, they need constant exercise. Since this is an important part of owning a boxer in particular, owners should ask themselves if they are willing and can commit quality time to at least walk their dogs.

If you live in a small apartment, ask your landlord if raising a dog is allowed. You don’t want to get involved in some problems in the future.
