What are boxer females really like?
As we are getting two dogs...It has been decided that the boxer we get will be a female.

I am leaning toward Zailey...but like Tilly, Sidney, Dani and Meadow. Good names?

Both male and female boxers alike are very loveable. They are loyal,
good with children and are good guard dogs.
