OK...just how hyper are boxers?

[Joodles]

If you love Boxers (which everyone on this board does), then
it's "enthusiasm." People who hate dogs call it "hyper."

I love my dogs' high energy. They do have a high need for
daily exercise. If you neglect that, you will have trouble.
If you don't have time to spend with your dog each day, then get another breed.

My Cooper is very laid back. He is happy at your feet just following you around. I think all they need is attention so they do not do naughty things, like jumping, to get you to notice them. Cooper is always with us, fiance and I work at home so he gets plenty off attention!

Brennan,

These things they are using to persuade you against the Boxer is what we all love the most. They aren't hyper, they are just excited.

A Boxer responds to you coming home from work like a child does on Christmas Day. This personality is what sets them apart from the rest...

Yes, they can be a handful... but if raising a child didn't kill you, a Boxer will be a walk in the park... or a run depending on the day

I do suggest hanging out with one for awhile... not because I feel you need to prepare yourself, but because I think this will be the quickest way we can sell you on em!
