Calling All Long Tails

[Cherokee]

My Cherokee has a long tail. Just out of curiosity how many others out there still have there natural tails? For you older ones what's it like. I keep hearing how lethal it is and am beginning to worry. It doesn't matter to me I love every bit of her and with the tail well there's more to love. I'm just curious.
I attached a picture of my girl with her beautiful tail.

I like your picture of Cherokee. I saw the one from your visit to the park the other day. I have never seen a boxer with a tail. Quite interesting.

I love Monty to bits. He is two and has a big strong tail. We have had to learn to adapt the house. Coffee tables with precious ornaments are out, Likewise search out any house you are visiting first or at least warn them in advance before taking your long tailed Boxer. :D :D :D .

I take great care when I'm on floor level with Monty because when he gets very playful and excited, his tail becomes leathal. He has actually split my lip with the force of it. .

I try to keep him away from enclosed spaces when he is excited as I also don't want him to hurt it.

I'm so used to his tail now that the precautions become second nature. It's still fairly rare here in the UK but amazingly peoples comments are so favourable.

Hannah's tail is docked. We always thought that it could be a lethal weapon if it wasn't. Then our neighbor got 2 boxer puppies and they have their natural tails. They are baout 6 months old now and I can honestly say that I'm glad Hannah's is docked.

The neighbor advises the trick is to take anything breakable and put it up and never leave a glass of red Kool-Aid (they did that) on the coffe tables (they call it Boxer-proofing the house). :D

Tess is docked but when we had the puppies we decided to keep them intact. All but one of my puppies had a white end on their tails just like your Cherokee. She is gorgeous by the way. I just love their long waggy tails but do take on board how lethal they can be. When I was younger we had a dachshund and his tail was very long and bony like a boxers. It used to really hurt when he wagged it on your legs. On my website (designed by my daughter) you can see photos of my puppies at 8 weeks all with their tails. I also will attach a photo of Belle last week.

Well the good thing is I don't have many knick knacks. Although I'm sure I will have to tail proof something or other when the time comes. I bruise easily so i'm going to have to learn to keep clear of the tail.
Belle is true to her name the picture is adorable.

I saw Monty in the other post and he is truly handsome tail and all, too bad my Cherokee is too young for Monty I'm sure they'd make a great pair even though she will be spayed next month she can still date.

I look forward to hearing more stories about other boxers with tails and any adventures you guys have with your little ones.

Thank you so much for posting a picture of a Boxer with a tail! I have never seen one before.....and it looks so cute!

My little Leisel has been docked, as it was done by the breeder before we got her, but I guess if I had the choice I wouldn't get it done.

I know when I see Leisel's little stump moving, it goes crazy.....I could just imagine what your little ones big tail would do!

With Cherokee I didn't have a choice. Although I love every bit of her just as she is. I think next time though I'll try without just for a change. Listen to me I'm new at this and already thinking about my future boxers. Actually my husband and I would like to buy a house just so we can get 2 more. I want to get a boy and a girl so I can name them Duke and Duchess although my husband says we still have to discuss the names. Cherokee will then get to be a big sister. That's still a long way away so I'll stick to here and now. Yes I too other than Cherokee haven't seen many boxers with tails which is why I decided to put this post. I figured others would come out and show me some pictures. Did you see Monty? He's 2 and has a tail and he is very handsome.
