Hello again! To answer your question Olly, I have two sons who really wanted a dog and I just never saw myself having one until I started dating a guy who had a female boxer named Bo. I fell in love with her and I knew I had to have one. It took over a year for a breeder in our area to have a litter of pups, if only I had known about the boxer rescues then. Diamond is now a major part of our family, it's just like having a third child. She is so comical to watch, it's almost as if she were part human. I know now and forever there will always be a boxer in my life.
