I'm no expert, but the ones I'm familiar with are very good-tempered. My daughter purchased a boxer as a pup 1 1/2 years ago and was given another one earlier this year that had been neglected and/or abused. Both of these dogs are well behaved (for puppies), don't bark alot, seem to be very loyal and can be trained fairly easily.

The only drawback is they will eat you out of house and home!

One of the best tempered dogs! In my experience, boxers are wonderfully tempered dogs, especially with young children. I've seen boxers put up with babies and toddlers....the children have pulled, pinched and even bitten the dog.

The boxer has done nothing more than a little yelp, and loves to play with the children.

Oh yes! Energetic, Playful, Loyal, Family Oriented. If owners of this fun loving breed were asked to describe a Boxer these are just a few examples that would be used.

The Boxer was originally bred for work but also makes an excellent choice when looking for a family pet. Although no two Boxer dogs are alike, there are common characteristics that a Boxer should display. From boxer-dog.org/item/9 Blunt face, steady gaze with a hint of mischief, an undeniable joy of life, and incredible grace, the Boxer is affectionate to children and a steadfast friend and guardian to the whole family.

What more could a dog owner ask of his best friend? Low maintenance? The Boxer is a clean canine with a short coat that needs little more than a wipe-down and an occasional bath.

Intelligence? The Boxer scores well in the smarts department. Versatility?

The Boxer does well in obedience, agility, and therapy work and has served credibly as a war dog and a police dog. From here: http://www.canismajor.com/dog/boxer.html The Boxer is patient, dignified, and self-assured. They exhibit curiosity, but are wary of strangers.

This breed is fearless and courageous if threatened. They are keenly alert and have a heightened sense of hearing, which make them excellent guard dogs. The Boxer adores children and other pets they have been raised with.

They have an inordinate need for human companionship and do not like to be alone for extended periods of time. They are not well suited for a two career family. Insufficient attention may lead them into "bad" behavior in an attempt to be noticed.

From here: http://www.nextdaypets.com/directory/breeds/1100050/ You need plenty of room to exercise and plenty of companionship with him. As the last quote mentions, it is not the dog to be left alone all day. Please trade him in for another if that is your situation..

Yes! We had a boxer about 15 years ago and she was a very good-natured dog. Never had any problems with her even when our grandchildren played with her.As with any dog it all depends on how you treat it.

You take care of it and it'll be just find. Love it and it'll love you back..

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
