Known for its playful, energetic, loyal, friendly and intelligent temperament, Boxers are one of the most popular dog breeds in the United States (and among celebrities), and for good reason.
Athletic and alert, they are great companion dogs that love to please the owners. In the 19th century, boxers were bred for hunting & dog fighting purposes.
During the war, they worked as messengers, but since have become popular as family pets. Although they are gentle with humans, they make great guard dogs as well.
But as popular as they've become, there are surprising fun facts that you may not know about them. Check out the following fun facts about Boxers:

I have had five boxers 2 white,2 brindle and 1fawn. My best friends ever make me laugh when they can look human at times. Large lap dogs. One of my white ones was deaf he new sign and no one could tell. He did sleep sometimes when he should have up. He was in his silent world. Tufferbear 85 lbs of pure love.

I also like pigs, and I always enjoyed the fact that our boxer used to grunt like a pig when he was eating. He so loved his food. Miss that boy. He’s in doggie heaven now.
