Vander

Vander is ever bit the example of a great boxer. Beautiful headpiece, smooth rich mahogany brindle coat, nice balance and angulation, good topline, and has great movement. Aside from his beautiful structure and handsome face, he's got an awesome show attitude, out there and ready to go!

Vander has the most outstanding temperament. Very easy to live with, happy, confident, not an aggressive bone in his body. I have dogs that come and go, (dog sitting, rescues, etc) and he welcomes all other dogs with no questions. (This is pretty amazing being that a lot of unaltered males get very territorial and do not tolerate others on their turf) He loves all people, and is great with kids. He definatly has his little bouts of energy, like all boxers, but knows when it is appropriate and when it's not. He is not overly "soft", (soft being sulky or pouty when learning something new or being corrected) and is super easy to live with.
