When correctly trained, the Boxer is renowned for unswerving loyalty to its master and its fearlessness as a guard dog. Training Your Dog books teach ordinary nonexpert dog owners how to train their own pets. Virtually every aspect of training is covered, with special focus on the distinctive traits of individual breeds. Dog owners are instructed on humane but effective methods of housebreaking and paper training, obedience training, teaching the dog to respond to verbal commands and hand signals, walking on a leash, and more. Also covered are methods of correcting bad habits such as begging, unwanted barking, and showing hostile behavior. There are many instructive, full color photos in each book.

With their lovable personalities and easy-going attitudes, it comes as no surprise that boxers are such desired pets! Sweet, caring dogs that love their families, boxers make great and loyal friends.

Your Happy Healthy Pet

30-minute large-breed training DVD contains bonus material specifically for your Boxer!
Dog behavioral trainer Peggy Moran shows you how proper training makes your best friend a Happy Healthy Pet for life.

The Boxer is a lover—not a fighter. Her sensitivity is astonishing and her eyes are almost human in their expression. She is devoted, fearless, and ready to defend her family. But the Boxer can also be a clown—she loves to romp and play, and her goofy personality will never cease to make you laugh. The Boxer makes a wonderful family pet, but her innate strength and natural tendency to leap require an owner who is willing to teach her the manners she needs to reach her full potential.

Packed with full-color photographs, this fun and practical guide gives you everything you need to make your relationship with your best friend even better. Inside, you'll find:

• Characteristics to look for when choosing a Boxer

• A list of supplies you'll need before you bring her home

• Advice on grooming, feeding, and training

• A reproducible pet-sitter chart to keep track of important information

A bonus DVD shows you that educating your Boxer positively is easier and more fun than you think. You'll learn how to teach your furry friend basic commands and tricks, correct inappropriate behaviors, and understand her unique personality.

The loyal and friendly Boxer proves as devoted and affectionate as he does elegant and proud. A popular addition to the family and a true friend for life, the Boxer offers owners everything they could expect from a canine companion: protection, loyalty, obedience, intelligence and good clean fun. This book provides the much-needed factual information about Boxers and their ancestry, character and standard, as well as puppy selection, feeding, training, preventative health care and behavior of the breed. The new owner will welcome advice about puppy-proofing the home, preparing for the pup's arrival, housebreaking and preventing puppy problems.

In addition to an authoritative, comprehensive text, this book presents over 135 photographs in full color, which prove to be as informative as they are attractive. Helpful hints and important information are highlighted to provide easy access to everything the reader needs to know about life with a Boxer from puppyhood to the senior years.

A.F. Hochwalt's 1921 classic work of Airedale history, lore, and legend is filled with fascinating dogs, people, and events, the famous and the obscure. "A number of books have been published on the Airedale; so many indeed, that the reader may ask, "Why another?" ... The aims of the author of this book have been, however, to investigate those bypaths hitherto but little trodden by his predecessors...the keynote of this book is that the Airedale is primarily a dog for real use in any sphere where one may wish to place him." A.F. Hochwalt, "The Airedale for Work and Show"
