MANNIX BOXERS - New York - USA
Description
My love for the Boxer breed started as a young child growing up with a wonderful black faced fawn female named Sandy.
Sandy was from a litter of 14 pups and my mother's cousin gave her to our family. Sandy was our constant companion. My mother always said she felt safe with Sandy guarding my twin sister and older sister and I while playing in the yard. Sandy would not let a stranger near us, and she was the best babysitter my parents ever had. If my parents raised their voices at us when we were bold, Sandy stood inbetween them and us. She took her protection job very seriously. My parents were amazed how protective Sandy was of us. Sandy lived to be 12 years old. When we put her to sleep I was also 12 years old, and I was heartbroken because I felt I had lost my best friend.
I have had other breeds over the years too. Two German Shepherds, a very smart Irish Setter for almost 14 years that finished her CD with a 195 average, and two Standard Manchesters. I have had many Boxers over the years and have done obedience, and dappled in Schutzhund, fly ball and finally the conformation ring.
