COLORADO BOXER BREEDER! NEBRASKA BOXER BREEDER! We are a small breeder of Family Raised Quality AKC Champion Sired Boxer puppies. We are now located in both Colorado and Nebraska. What started out as just my small business 18 years ago now includes two of my daughters; Amy (my oldest) and Tori (my youngest). Due to this collaboration with my daughters, we now reside in two states; Colorado & Nebraska. Amy is east of Denver in Bennett CO, Tori in Arapahoe NE and myself (Kim) in Beaver City, NE. We still raise the same Happy, Healthy, Beautiful & Quality AKC Boxers. Please learn a bit more about our Boxers on our "Meet Our Boxers" page where you can see pictures, video, and information about them.
We are a very small breeder and our puppies are Family Raised as the three of us each have only 2 breeding females that are part of our family. Regardless of which one of us might currently have a litter of puppies; you are always able to pick up your puppy at which ever location is most convenient for you. Those that are out of state and planning on flying in to pick up their puppy may request that we bring their puppy to a nearby airport so that you can fly back home with the puppy in-cabin with you. It is easily done, and the puppies do great with that!
Our emphasis here at Box Elder Creek is on doing our very best to provide families and individuals with a quality puppy; one that is healthy, well socialized, has an outstanding well-rounded disposition and has the look of a true quality Boxer. We do not have puppies all the time, as we chose to only have a few litters per year; in doing so we are able to dedicate a lot of time, care, love, and attention to each and every one of our puppies. We know that we have a very limited amount of time before our puppies will be leaving us and joining their new families; we feel it is our responsibility to get our puppies off on a great start in life while they are here with us, this helps ensure they will be ready and able to become a valued and much-loved member of their new family.
We utilize selective breeding practices to try and breed away from ARVC and DM in our lines. Our parents are DNA tested for ARVC & DM to help us avoid producing ARVC and DM at risk offspring, and to significantly reduce the gene frequency in future generations by helping to eliminate carriers from the breeding pool to better the breed for the future.
Boxers make wonderful family pets, they are great with kids and have excellent temperaments, but they are not for everyone. They love to be a part of the family and enjoy any activity that involves interaction with people, be that hiking, jogging, agility, games that make them think, lounging, babysitting, learning (try clicker training),
patrol duty, stealing children's toys to get everyone to chase after them, they are prone to collect shoes into piles (they seem to think this is an important job), re-arranging the laundry is a favorite past time (Boxers are always very helpful!!), prized possession.......come and get it from me! Life with a Boxer is never dull!!! They are silly and very much a jokester. Please make sure a Boxer is for you before purchasing one as they will test your patience at times. If you are looking for a dog that is independent, a Boxer is not for you as their family is very important to them and they tend to want to follow you around all day long. Boxers adore their family, and it is very important that they be a part of it. I also highly recommend before purchasing a Boxer that you make sure you will have the time for proper training, as lack of training is the #1 reason Boxers end up in Boxer Rescue.
We are delighted to welcome you to our website, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you into our Boxer family!
Sincerely,
Kim Shockman
