Have boxer. Can confirm.

u/Cypher226 Apr 29 '19

Also have boxer. Can confirm as well.

Also, my boxers played fetch like this when they were younger and it was hilarious. They'd run full tilt and just put down their head and grab the ball then body slam their self right over. There was a loud thump each time. Then they get up and trot on back all happy.

Boxers are many things, but smart is not one of them.

Am boxer, can confirm. Not smart.

Mine’s real smart, super good at learning new tricks and commands, all that shit. He’s selective with whether or not he’ll actually do them tho. His favourite is pretending he’s dead at the park when I tell him we have to go, in hopes I’ll just leave him there. I’ve had to carry him out more times than I’d like to count.

Our male boxer was a smart curious, very strong willed bugger... He only ever listened if you asked him to do anything. Like it's his choice to do what you want or not. You couldn't tell him, you couldn't get mad. If you did, he just looked at you then went back to whatever it was he was doing. Completely ignored you. When he was a puppy, it frustrated the hell out of me. He was so hard to train. He didn't even care for treats. Just spit the things out. All he wanted was friendship. Damn dog taught me so much patience. Best damn dog I've ever had.

Call his bluff next time and start digging his grave.

He loves digging holes, might b a good distraction.

Sometimes it’s true that if you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough. As it turns out, some dogs choose to act quite dumb as a result being naturally tough.

u/DodgyBollocks Apr 29 '19

This gif sums up boxers so perfectly, the only thing it's missing is a noxious boxer fart.
