I haven't known many boxers in my life so im not sure about what is common, but I have a 1 1/2 yr old female brindle.
I used to hate dogs, but now i hang out with everyone i can.
Some of gurly's traits are:
1. I have her trained to give kisses and hugs whenever i want one. and now she greets me with them for minutes at a time whenever i get home.
2. She also will get rowdy in the yard and just run around for no reason in particular as soon as i let her out the door.
3. she likes to play keep away. its her favorite game........i throw her the ball, she rectrieves it and i get to chase after her to get it back, although i can just say 'drop it' and she puts it down.
4. She loves all animals. She would never want to kill one.....all she wants is to play. unfortunatly my other animals don't realize this. she usually makes the 'woo woo' noise when she wants to play.
5. i think its a dominance thing.........if im laying on the floor she will come up and stand over top of me.
6. she seems to have this thing for sticking her ass in my face. not on my face (eww) but right in front of it. especially if we are in bed. she lays with her head the other way (i think b/c she doesn't like to be breathed on)
7. she snores.......LOUD
8. she gets jealous if i try to play with another dog and tries to steal my attention.
9. she follows me everywhere
10. she wakes me up by stepping on my face and hair.
11. she tends to stick her bottom in the air when she plays with a bone.
12. she twitches in her sleep as if she is dreaming about running.
13. she grew up with a pit bull that taught her to growl really mean sounding when she plays with other dogs. even tho it sounds scary she is really just playing.
14. when she knows she is bad she lays down and shows her belly and does a funny licking action with her tongue until i tell her its ok.
15. she likes to get filthy dirty by running through mud puddles.
I could go on some more but i'll stop b/c now i realize these traits aren't all common, but this thread is interesting b/c u can read what other boxers personalities consist of. all dogs are unique and that's why we love them. especially boxers, because their personalities are very much like people's.
