I go over to the Capital Area Humane Society a few times a month during the warmer month with my kids. While up there the other day my daughter fell in love with a 1 year old boxer. In the 2 hours we spent up there today I found that the dog knew 6 different commands, is definitely house broken, loves my daughter and my wife, and listens very well for a young dog. I did however noticed a scar on his hind leg which I found was some type of hip surgery.
I put him on hold to think it over. Any insight from the boxer community would be appreciated.
