Rare Boxers
Black Boxers
Don't let anyone tell you that black boxers are "Rare", They aren't!! They have been around for a long, long time. Check out black boxers info website about black boxers. They just aren't as popular as the fawns or brindles. Sealed black boxers are actually reverse brindles where the black striping has blended together. They are classified as sealed brindles. They are registered with AKC as brindles. You can see that they are not rare by going into Google and type in black boxers then click on Images. You will find a lot of them, just as you would if you did it with Yahoo or any search engine. Also you can find a lot of ads for boxers and many have the black boxers.
There are also a lot of boxer breeders who have litters of black boxers in many states: Alabama alone has at least 10 breeders (having black boxers) that I know of. There are also some in Georgia, Tennessee, North & South Dakota, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Missouri, Ohio and Mississippi, just to mention a few. So, you can see they are "NOT RARE".
As defined in the dictionary: Rare: 1. seldom seen or found 2. not happening often, unusual
Think about it!
Mahogany & Deer Red Boxers
Usually the mahogany fawns are a little harder to find, but they are out there and they are not rare either. Be careful of people claiming that their dog or dogs are mahogany. Also watch for breeders claiming that their puppies are mahogany. In order to have mahogany puppies, one of the parents would have to be a true mahogany. To have a full litter of mahogany puppies would probably be unusual or "rare", both the sire and the dam would have to be true mahogany. Don't be confused with a mahogany and a deer red fawn. The deer red is just a bit lighter than the mahogany, both are still fawns
White Boxers
The white boxers are getting to be more popular. We do our best not to have them. Some white boxers can have just the normal or average healthy conditions like all the other boxers. All white boxer pups are registerable and come with a LIMITED registration for AKC.
Puppy Searching
As you know from your experience that looking for the right boxer puppy for yourself or your family is about as important as buying a house, a vehicle or picking out the college or making a decision about a career/job. This puppy that you choose should be part of your family. You will expect certain things from your pup, but he or she, of course needs to learn and be trained so both of you will grow together and be as one would say...be on the same page.
Your pup is like a child, and needs to be train in the path you want him to go.
Buyer Beware!!
While you are looking for that puppy to fill that empty spot, there are a lot of people out there that will help you. Some breeders are just great about helping and there are some are there to sell you a puppy. There are people that will buy several puppies if not the entire litter from a small breeder and sell those puppies at much higher prices to people .by "false advertising". They will advertise that the pups have champion bloodlines but don't. They can't produce or show the parents, or the "parents" are really not the parents, or they may give false information. Ask to see the pedigree papers and the registration papers on both parents. Basically, watch out for the puppy mills, pet shops, or large breeders selling lots of puppies of several breeds and/or always have puppies to sell. And these people can also be licensed...for what or by who?
The scammers are out there trying to get your money too, so be careful. And thank you for looking at my website. Please come and visit us again.

Beware of breeders who claim they have been breeding for 10, 15, 20, 30 or more years. If they have been, they should have a written contract/health guarantee by now that should be on their website for you to read over so you know what you are getting into. If you don't see one, they could be hiding something that they don't really want you to know until they get your money.
