I am sure this thought has crossed your mind - Hey, I wish I knew exactly how to train our boxer (dog or puppy). Maybe that is what led you to this article. Just to give you a little background on Boxer dogs - This dog was first bred as a German guard and working dog. Boxer dogs could even still maintain those abilities nowadays in small percentages. In addition, as strong a s the look, Boxer dogs are not fighting dogs at all.
Here are some dog training tips that can go a long way, on how to train the Boxer breed whether dog or puppy.
A) Make sure to pick your boxer puppy from a responsible breeder that knows the "Boxer" breed and loves dogs and not just the money. This goes for any dog breed. Once acquired, start training the Boxer puppy as early as possible. Boxers, being known for their sharp intelligence, are a breed that can start training as soon as two months old.
B) Socialize your puppy as early as possible. Boxers are known for their terrific attitude and playfulness. Boxer dogs are typically great with people in general. Boxers and their high energy levels require a lot of exercise and attention.
C) When training a Boxer Dog or training any dog always remember you are the pack leader, not them. If you do not practice a calm assertive position as the pack leader (instead of yelling and force), your setting the stage for emotional behavior problems in the future. I suggest a downloading Dog Training Guide to hone your Boxer dog training skills, which always prove to be useful.
So just to recap:
>> Find a good breeder
>>Commit Early to Socialization with Other Dogs (and people)
>>Calm Assertive Training Methods
Keep in mind - dog behavior problems are common in Boxers due to their high energy levels mixed with little exercise. High energy can lead to destruction, hyperactivity, and other aggression issues that need the expertise of a trainer or licensed professional.
This dog breed can sometimes have hip problems - due to poor ownership (diet, lack of exercise, etc). There are genetic problems in White boxer dogs such as being prone to hearing problems (small percentage).
