3 out of 10 stars (1 vote)

The well-bred boxer is energetic, gentle, and fun loving with adults and children, although it is wary of strangers. Boxers generally get along with other dogs, but some females may be aggressive and some males inclined to fight for dominance. Early obedience training is therefore very important. With a consistent, determined owner, the boxer does well in obedience classes.

Bullmastiffs are fearless and confident, yet docile. They are reliable, intelligent, and have a natural instinct to guard their families. Early obedience training is essential for these powerful, active, and stubborn dogs. Games like tug-of-war and wrestling are not recommended. If socialized, bullmastiffs accept strangers and are affectionate and patient with children and other animals in their family. They will not, however, tolerate trespassers. Some are heavy droolers.
