does anyone else have a "lazy" boxer?

I think Oscar is nicely in the middle. He does get tired fast but when he's on he's on. Long walks wear him out. He'd rather be in the house with his chin on the window sill watching birds and squirrels.

My little Daisy is naick named... Lazy Daisy. She's is still really young but she loves to lay everywhere relaxing without a care in the world. Except sometimes at night she will turn into... Daisy the Lightening Bolt baby...and.... she's off running...running and running some more- My crazy lazy Daisy

Jackson is lazy in the morning but even when lazing around , he'll never pass up a walk. He dearly loves walking..He prances so proud no matter how far I walk with him. Sometimes I don't doubt that he would out do me.

One thing I feel the need to point out: If you have a boxer that really does seem to be very sluggish (I don't mean lethargic like when they are very sick), You may want to look into getting their thyroid level checked. Low thyroid is very common in boxers, as I found out. When J.C. was taking his obedience classes, some days it felt like I was dragging him around by his leash. It was suggested to me to have him checked so I did. He tested very low and was put on medication. He is a very different dog now and is currently taking agility classes, something I wouldn't have dreamed of doing before with him. So please get them checked if you think this might be the case. It might seem nice to have a really laid back boxer, but it is not much of a life for them.

I don't really think of Chaos as being lazy. He likes to sleep in during the morning but that's about it. I guess it's all according to whats going on around him. If the skin kids are active he beomes even more active. If someone happens to pop in he has to have their complete attention. If we are on a walk and someone stops to admire him, oh my gosh he is just so excited. But on the other hand if I need for him to calm down he will. He seems to know my limitations and act accordingly.Such a smart boy for being only 10 months old.
