Walking a Boxer

Boxers stay puppy-like for a while; many owners keep walks brisk and playful.

High energyenergy level — general orientation

Playful and athletic with a brachycephalic (flat-faced) build that limits heat tolerance — avoid midday walks in warm weather and watch for heavy panting as a cue to rest. In cool conditions they have good stamina and enjoy energetic, brisk outings. Their exuberant personality makes them fun walking companions once leash manners are established.

The Boxer is a flat-faced (brachycephalic) breed. See our simple guide to walking and caring for flat-faced dogs — heat safety, harnesses, and the breathing signs to watch for.
