Description |
Looks may vary as this is not a set breed but a Boxer
crossed with other bull breeds. |
|
Temperament |
The Bull Boxer is easy to obedience train. Breeders
of the Bull Boxer say it has characteristics that make it in some ways superior
to their parents, the Boxer and the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. While Boxers
remain puppy-like and seldom outgrow puppy behavior until they are over three
years of age, Bull Boxer puppies are said to mature earlier. Although many
Staffordshire's are unreliable with small animals, the Bull Boxer is said to be
less inclined to chase. It has also inherited the Staffordshire's sociable
nature. Breeding of the Bull Boxer continues in Great Britain. |
|
Height, Weight |
Height: 16-27 inches (41-69 cm.)
Weight: 37-75 pounds (17-32 kg.) |
|
Health Problems |
Bull Boxer breeders say it is possible that this
crossing reduces the Boxers predisposition to skin cancer and the
Staffordshire's predisposition to heart disease. However some Boxer breeders
protest this claim. |
|
Living Conditions |
The Bull Boxer will do okay in an apartment if it is
sufficiently exercised. They are fairly active indoors and do best with at least
an average-sized yard. |
Exercise |
Bull Boxers need daily work or exercise, as well as a
long brisk, daily walk. They also enjoy fetching a ball or other sessions of
play. |
|
Life Expectancy |
About 12-13 years. |
|
Grooming |
The close, smooth coat of the Bull Boxer is easy to
groom. Occasionally comb and brush the coat to remove dead hairs. Bathe only
when necessary, for it removes the natural oils from the skin. The ears should
be checked regularly and kept clean. The Bull Boxer is an average shedder. |
|
Origin |
The Bull Boxer, also spelled,
Bullboxer and Bulloxer, originated in the 1990's in Great
Britain by crossing the Boxer and the
Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Today there
are variations of this cross using the Boxer and other Bull breeds. Some other
known variations are the Boxer and American Pit Bull Terrier,
Boxer with the English Bulldog and Boxer with the
American Bulldog. The Bull Boxer is
controversial. Some Boxer breeders protest the development of the Bull Boxer
saying it is a bad mix, while others love it. This type of dog is still being
bred in Great Britain and other parts of the world.
Not all of these designer hybrid dogs being bred are 50%
purebred to 50% purebred. It is very common for breeders to breed
multi-generation crosses. |

"Tahoe, my Bullboxer is 2
years old in this picture and he is at his favorite place, the
beach. I’ve had about 5 dogs now and he is by far the best dog yet.
You can just look at him and laugh…he’s loving, dorky, smart,
protective, and a friend to everyone and everything…including cats!
Some of Tahoe’s hobbies include getting buried in the sand, chasing
flies, hanging out with everyone and barking at objects he views for
the first time…fake plants, fire hydrants, and parked motorcycles!"
