The Boxer Club of Hawaii strives to promote the breeding of quality Boxers, to protect all interests of the breed, to maintain the standard of the Boxer in Hawaii, and to encourage true sportsmanship among Boxer owners.
Boxers are great dogs with great hearts! In fact, they are the King of Hearts.
A short introduction to the Boxer Standard can be found here. A visual study of the AKC Standard can be found here.
The next quarterly meeting will be a Boxer Health/Grooming Seminar on September 4 at 6 pm. The address is 3021 Anderson Ave, Honolulu, Hawaii 96818 (Halsey Terrace Navy housing). We'll discuss health issues most common in the breed and easy, low-cost ways to keep your Boxer healthy and happy. We will also have snacks and door prizes. Since we'll be using our Boxers for demos, we ask only owners come for this one. Please RSVP (
) by Aug. 23 so we know how much food to purchase.
