I used to have a two male boxer, Max and George. Max died a couple of years ago (he was old). He was the best dog I’ve ever had...gentle, funny, forever acted like a puppy, good with people. I say go for it.
I now have a basset hound whose personality is very different. Boxers will always have a special place in my heart.
We bought our nine year old Boxer when he was 9 weeks old.
I kid you not, he has made me laugh at least once EVERY SINGLE DAY since.
