based on 2006 american kennel club statistics, boxers are the seventh most popular breed of dog in the united states\u00e2\u20ac\u201da position they have held since 2002\u00e2\u20ac\u201dwith approximately 35,388 new dog registrations during the year. the head is the most distinctive feature of the boxer. the breed standard dictates that it must be in perfect proportion to the body and above all it must never be too light. the greatest value is to be placed on the muzzle being of correct form and in absolute proportion to the skull. the length of the muzzle to the whole of the head should be as 1:3. the boxer is a short-haired breed, with a shiny, smooth coat that lies tight to the body. the recognized colors are fawn and brindle, often with a white underbelly and white on the front or all four feet. these white markings, called flash, often extend onto the neck or face, and dogs that have these markings are known as "flashy". boxers were originally a docked and cropped breed, and this tradition is still maintained in some countries. however, due to pressure from veterinary associations, animal rights groups and the general public, both cropping of the ears and docking of the tail have been prohibited in many countries around the world. in the united states and canada as of 2007, cropped ears are still more common in show dogs.
an adult boxer typically weighs between 55 and 70 lbs (25 and 32 kg). adult male boxers are between 23 and 25 inches (57 and 63 cm) tall at the withers; adult females are between 21 to 23\u00c2\u00bd inches (53 and 60 cm). boxers are a bright, energetic and playful breed and tend to be very good with children. boxers have earned a slight reputation of being "headstrong", which can be related to inappropriate obedience training. owing to their intelligence and working breed characteristics, training based on the use of corrections often has limited usefulness. boxers often respond much better to positive reinforcement techniques such as clicker training. the boxer by nature is not aggressive, but needs socialistion to tolerate other dogs. the name "boxer" is supposedly derived from the breed's tendency to begin a fight by standing on its hind legs and "boxing" with its front paws. boxers are prone to develop cancers, heart conditions such as aortic stenosis, hypothyroidism, hip dysplasia, gastric dilatation, torsion (bloat), intestinal problems, and allergies (although these may be more related to diet than breed). many famous people have owned boxers, such as:
