I was gifted a boxer by my grandparents for my tenth birthday, as my first "real" pet. We named her Tasha after Boris & Natasha, as the (admittedly terrible) live-action Rocky & Bullwinkle movie had recently released. She was the love of my life. She went through puberty and all its ups and downs with me; she went through the death of the same grandparents who gave her to me, with me; she survived high school with me, and came with me when I moved out of my hometown and went to college; she served as the ring-bearer in my wedding. She was very smart, and seemingly convinced she was human...I once caught her sitting on a chair on my parents' pool deck, not on her haunches like a normal dog, but flat on her butt, with one front leg propped up on the armrest. She had problems with small, cancerous masses several times in her life, the earliest being when she was around six. But the four or five of those she had were all just under her skin and very easily removed. Cancer was what took her in the end anyway, though...Whether is was metastatic from one of her skin lesions, or a new cancer all its own, I will never know, but one day she just collapsed. The next day, the vet did exploratory surgery and discovered a mass the size of a baseball latched to her spine. There was nothing they could do; they put her down that same day. She was quite old, for a boxer. She lived 13 and a half wonderful years. She died in February, 2013. She would have been 14 that June. I have owned and lost another boxer since then, (who also beat the average, living to be 11), and now I have a little blind mutt who is almost 8. As much as I love the latter two dogs, Tasha was the greatest, most wonderful dog I've ever known, and may ever know. She was the glue that held my life together throughout my adolescence and early adulthood. I still miss her every day. She made me laugh and smile like no human has ever been able to. Her little wiggling nub of a tail and the in-constant-motion butt it was attached to never failed to make me grin. I miss the little things like that. This is a long story for a comment. But boxers are wonderful. Dogs in general are amazing. I wish humans were more like them.
Mine would do the same thing and sit upright on the couch with us. She’d even watch tv in the evenings sitting upright or cuddling with a lucky family member. My favorite part is either the boxer face or the butt wag.
Outstanding tribute to Tasha. While she made your life a blessing while she was alive its obvious that you made her feel like the absolute queen that she was. I was visiting my parents when lockdown started and was stuck in New Zealand for 3 months, while I'd obviously known Gem from previous visits the lockdown gave me a solid 3 months of having her bless me with her love and affection every day. Just the little things like she'd randomly come into my room just to say hello and have a cuddle, to being told by my parents that she waited outside my room every morning until I woke up. She's 10 now and I'm dying to get back to New Zealand so I can see her one last time as I know she probably doesn't have much time left. I'm praying that restrictions get lifted soon over there. It's crazy but out of all my family in NZ I miss Gem the most. Sorry if it seems like I'm trying to grab the attention from your story, I just wanted to endorse your tribute by giving my experience of Boxer dogs. Thank you for your wonderful comment.
The energy of duracell.....the face of a squashed ham....the body of a sprinter...and the coordination of a blind hamster.....the best breed in the world!
My father never cared about dogs until we took in a friend-of-a-friend's senior boxer. He went gaga over that dog. He seemed genuinely happy about something for the first time in years. She died from liver cancer 6 months later. But he kept the happiness she gave him and now we've got a 2-year-old pit mix he dotes on just as much.
I had a boxer named Lucy, she was literally the sweetest, kindest and most love giving dog we ever had in our family. I miss her everyday… I almost never see my father crying, but when Lucy passed, it hit him really hard. He placed a photo of her on our fridge and wrote with a pen “Lucy, the loveliest dog ever”. Every time me and my brother went to play with her, we always sang “Lucy in the sky with diamonds” and now she really is ❤️
Sorry for ur loss n ur comment is just 😭😭🥺🥺 remember our loved never leave n we will reunite, I have lost a hell lot of my animal friends too, I always imagine what it would be like when we meet 🥺🥺❤️❤️
We lost our boy, Moose in September from his 3rd time with cancer. Each cancer was different. It is so hard to lose them, but biy do Boxers fill your life with joy!! Cooper is a cutie!!
I love boxers. I've known them as "the eternal puppy," because they don't seem to ever grow up. Each one I've known has been playful in old age, just like when they were pups. Sometimes even hurting their self with their own excitement. Glad to see that this one has made it through some hardship.
Older dogs that go into the play-bow stance while frantically wagging their tail/hindquarters activate my 'd'aww'-mode even more than puppies do. Wait, what am I saying? All dogs are puppies. Bu- NO EXCEPTIONS! Playful older dogs are delightful, is what I'm saying. Pretty sure Donkey's movements in Shrek were based of of our boxers, though I cannot prove it. :P
my grandparents' last boxer was like that. 9 years old, an arthritic. running on the beach like a puppy and limping afterwards. a puppy until his last breath. god i love boxers.
We had the privilege of being a forever home for an eight-year old boxer, Peyton, who had not had the greatest life to date. We loved her so much. She got sick at eleven years old. What a wonderful, fantastic, dog. I miss her so much.
I have a boxer, he's 7 years old and he has skin cancer. We are doing everything we can for him. He's one of the best dogs I've ever had, boxers are great.
“Boxers tilt their heads side to side just to hear the marble roll back and forth” is probably my favorite comment I’ve seen about them. My goofy boxer would always slam her head on cabinets and walls as she was turning around, not a thought or awareness or worry or care. I miss my silly girl
Thanks for adding the heartbreak caveat. I love boxers. My family had one. Old dude lived to 14, but developed a heart murmur and just went downhill immediately. We let him go. When we started crying, instead of worrying about the vet and everything going on with himself, all he cared about was getting us to stop crying. These dogs are magic.
My Boxer, Bruno, was the joy of my life. I had him for 8 amazing years and then cancer took him in just a few short months. I couldn’t make it through this video without tears streaming down my face, and he’s been gone for many years. That is how much you will love a Boxer. It will be for life.
Boxer “mutts” are a great way to get all that Boxer personality without so many of the health issues! I have a twelve year old Boxer/god knows what mix; they’re hilarious and still fit as a fiddle.
I'm not a dog expert or a geneticist, but that sounds right to me, and even a necessity. The common occurrence of cancer seems to indicate something's gone haywire in the genes - the breed may require some "mutting up".
The idea that mixed breed dogs are healthier than purebred dogs is a myth. Mixed breed and purebred dogs are just as likely to suffer from common health issues like cancers, hip dysplasia, and patellar luxation. There are simply more mixed breed dogs on the planet than purebred dogs, and that skews people's views on their "healthiness" because they have anecdotally met or owned more mixed breeds than purebreds. And there's also the fact that *_not every purebred dog is well-bred_*, and thus should not be judged on the same level of overall "healthiness", as careful breeding and health screening potential parents can easily reduce the risk of common health issues.
@@atreyu4ws Thank you, I was about to say that but in a very simplistic way, lol This idea that mixed breeds are "healthier" than pure breeds is a complete myth. I am not against the "adoption" mentality that many people follow blindly, you do you... but let's not vilify the pure breeds either, both sides offer advantages, neither is "evil" or "morally right"
My family has owned 2 boxers and both of them were/are so so sweet. Their current girl loves stuffed toys and likes to bring me the toy I gave her when I come to visit. She’s such a goofy little sweetheart
@@luci-fer250 they’re incredibly goofy, yeah 😂 both of our boxers got the zoomies and were extremely floppy when they ran. Also, since they just have a little nub for a tail, they usually wiggle their whole butt/body when you would normally just get a tail wag. Disclaimer: I don’t know how everyone feels about cropped ears and docked tails, but the first boxer was cropped/docked before my family or I knew how harmful it can be (we got her when I was really young), the second was cropped/docked by her previous owners.
I know I'm going to catch a lot of flack for saying this, but Cooper has the BEST Happy Hoodie look so far. This is a request for Cooper to be to the next t-shirt.
We recently got a rescue called Cooper! He's a Staffordshire Bull Terrier / Boxer and he's stubborn and adorable in equal measure. Although still a bit mouthy he's a lovely chap and does use his front legs to give you a hug!
My boxer died from heart failure when she was only 8 years old. That was 20 years ago, I still miss her!... and now im crying thinking of how good of a dog and companion she was. Dag nammit! 😭
I lost my boxer, Apollo, in 2018. Your video brought back some very wonderful memories. "Slobber on the ceiling." I still remember that event. Thank you. 😊
"Bullenbeißer" means "bullbiter" in english. Fun fact: In Germany people call policemen "bulls" as an insult. So practically "Bullenbeißer" could also mean "Copbiter"
we lost ours last week too we think she was boxer/mastiff/staffy cross & looks very similar to the one one in the video & she was also 13 and had her for 11 years
My condolences for you and your sweet Lucy. My girl is approaching 11 yrs and I'm thankful for every day I have with her. She's still doing 5 miles a day without fail, they truly are forever puppies.
My aunt and uncle had a boxer in the 60s and anyone alive then STILL talks about how great she was. Ming was part of the family for sure... more missed than some humans lol
Aw poor Cooper that was sad that he had cancer but I'm glad that he survived it. So an extra big hug to him. You look handsome Cooper and you did a good job and so did your groomer you look very very handsome ♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@BlueTilda96 I'll put it this way- in her older age, when my late mother had severe dementia, I had moved back home (kids, dogs, cats and all) , he was her constant companion, she even crocheted a collar for him, that said "spoiled rotten dog" I miss them both greatly
@@arkansaslibertarian5051 I'm so sorry to hear about your mother.❣ My dad past last year from Alzheimer's disease, it's such a struggle. I'm happy to hear your little pittie could bring joy in such hard times. They truly are special beings❤ I hope you have a great day/evening depending on your timezone. Much love from Sweden :)
Happy tears here. I grew up with a brindle boxer mix. Best dog we ever had. He used to play fetch with himself. We lost him at 6 to aggressive bone cancer. I miss that good boy.
We always talk about the dogs but Vanessa, you are a dear and beautiful woman (inside and out)! I am very grateful for your channel, your knowledge and your gentle spirit! Thank you for the lovely content and cudos to the cameraman (and anyone else, if there is) contributing to creating these videos and sharing them. Great job!
"Slobber off your ceilings" explains a lot about visiting one of my friend's houses as a little kid and her mom was on a stepladder looking exasperated at said ceiling, Chloe the boxer running amok outside in the yard.
Boxers are awesome silly goofs. A had one as a very young child. Or, rather, my grandparents had one and I got to use him as a willing nap pillow all around friend. Still miss you bubber
My Boxer baby is 4.. his name is Tyson, best dog EVER..so good with our kids.. he gives hugs and kisses to everyone, and anyone that sits the couch becomes his personal seat...he's completely unaware he's not a human🤣💕🐶
They are the pure energy of love contained within a dog body. My present Boxer Rocky is my fourth. It tears my heart out to lose them but I love them forever.
I took care of a boxer for a few months while the owner was away and she took great pride in guarding the farm we lived on 😍 she even used to drag herself out of her warm bed to come outside with me when I went outside at night for a cigarette (smoking is bad kids don't do it), I'm convinced she did it to make sure I was ok and I will not hear otherwise lol.
Buddy, hitting on women in the comment section of a TH-cam video is not the way. Please do yourself a favour and read about what women want and most importantly what they DON'T want. Spend at least 5 hours on it. I'm not trying to be offensive or mean, but you need to be better than this
Pumpkin pie spray is perfect for this pumpkin colored Cooper, good memories of my Libby girl from 1970’s. Yes, they are kind and affectionate, great breed for children to grow up together, no fur baby ever lives long enough for sure.🦮
My grandparents had a boxer named Boswell. He was so smart and sweet, but when we had to ride in the back seat with him, we argued over who got the slobbering or the farting end. 😆
Loved this one! My mom and dad adopted a Boxer back in 1963, and named her Ginger. When dad was laid off from Boeing, we moved to Sacramento (and he worked for McDonnell Douglas) and brought her both down and back to Seattle. She was a great dog!
Oh my gosh he is adorable so handsome - as a child my Dad owned a dog like this, Bongo was his name and I was so proud as he walked me to school. Memories from over 40yrs ago.
Owned 3 boxers in my lifetime, did 7 years of RSPCA volunteering too, and I can entirely agree that when it comes to boxers, no other dog comes even close when it comes to the idea of "human like" personality.
Thank you for sharing this sweet video. We lost our best boy, Joe Boxer, on December 6, 2019. He was 10 years old and took his last breath with his head in my lap. He was the greatest dog we’ve ever owned, our once-in-a-lifetime pupper. We miss him every day.
When i was in New Zealand i encountered a boxer. At first she barked nonstop, but after a few seconds of sniffing me out and memorizing my scent, she calmed down immediately and boy was she playful after that. Lol such a gorgeous breed.
I must agree with Boxers being one of the best breeds ever. Our Boxer lady Sissi is now 10 years and still acts like a puppy. She's doing great and the thought of loosing this loyal and so incredibly human like friend is heart shattering to me. She never encountered the problems listed above but she did have some medical situations. If you feel like getting this breed, you're in for a very emotional, loving companion :3 I truly love this dog
He didn't cheat death, he charmed him by being adorable.
Best comment
💕TOTALLY 💕
Death: “I have come for you! ‘Twas the salmon mousse they gave you for dinn-“
Cooper: *gives puppy eyes*
Death: “… On the other hand, I just remembered I had some urgent business back home. Yes, too many funny Boxer videos in my backlog that still need to be watched…”
Bonus points for anyone who got the reference in the first sentence!
At 18 months he didn't cheat death. Death tried to cheat him, but Death failed miserably (or failed luckily, from the dog's perspective).
Aaaawwwww... That's so sweet..
He has my favorite dog look, that being “I don’t know why I’m here, I’m just happy to be included.”

We recently got a rescue called Cooper! He's a Staffordshire Bull Terrier / Boxer and he's stubborn and adorable in equal measure. Although still a bit mouthy he's a lovely chap and does use his front legs to give you a hug!
My boxer died from heart failure when she was only 8 years old.
That was 20 years ago, I still miss her!... and now im crying thinking of how good of a dog and companion she was.
Dag nammit! 😭
cute beagle

Love your name and pfp fam. May your dog rest in doggy heaven.
Death took one look at him and said, "He's a good boy. He has to live".
It's incredible that he had never been professionally groomed before. He was so well behaved!
Hi Amy
Oh I like dogs too. How are you doing today and where are you from? 😊
The most joyful hello and the most heartbreaking goodbye ...❤💔
I lost my boxer, Apollo, in 2018. Your video brought back some very wonderful memories. "Slobber on the ceiling." I still remember that event. Thank you. 😊
"Bullenbeißer" means "bullbiter" in english.
Fun fact: In Germany people call policemen "bulls" as an insult. So practically "Bullenbeißer" could also mean "Copbiter"
Scheiß Bullen alter!! 😂😂
awww the perfect breed for me 🥰

What a good boy!
Interesting. In the US there are many who call policemen "pigs."
We just lost our Boxer, Lucy, on Friday. We were so lucky to have her for 13 years. She was the goodest girl.
we lost ours last week too we think she was boxer/mastiff/staffy cross & looks very similar to the one one in the video & she was also 13 and had her for 11 years
@@jonathandavid9389 I’m so sorry. It’s unfair that we outlive them.
My condolences for you and your sweet Lucy. My girl is approaching 11 yrs and I'm thankful for every day I have with her. She's still doing 5 miles a day without fail, they truly are forever puppies.
She’s in doggy heaven with all of the other dogs with endless treats and endless play💕
Ahh that’s so sad, big hugs too you. Your home will not be the same, but your memories will live on😊
It’s like they know that they have a short time with us so they squeeze as much love as possible into it
Those hugs tho… 🥺
The slobber on the ceiling!!! So true 😂
My aunt and uncle had a boxer in the 60s and anyone alive then STILL talks about how great she was. Ming was part of the family for sure... more missed than some humans lol
Hi Copper, you’re such a strong dog both physically and mentally overcoming your health concerns! Handsome too! Gooo Cooper!
2:56 He was hugging you on a job well done
Cooperinsky you are so lovely ❤
Aw poor Cooper that was sad that he had cancer but I'm glad that he survived it. So an extra big hug to him. You look handsome Cooper and you did a good job and so did your groomer you look very very handsome ♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰🥰
Happy hoodie faces are my favorites 😂
My pitbull doubled his expected life span, lived to be 16, hope these pups do the same
Must have been a very happy and content pitbull ♥️
@@BlueTilda96 I'll put it this way- in her older age, when my late mother had severe dementia, I had moved back home (kids, dogs, cats and all) , he was her constant companion, she even crocheted a collar for him, that said "spoiled rotten dog" I miss them both greatly
@@arkansaslibertarian5051 I'm so sorry to hear about your mother.❣ My dad past last year from Alzheimer's disease, it's such a struggle. I'm happy to hear your little pittie could bring joy in such hard times. They truly are special beings❤ I hope you have a great day/evening depending on your timezone. Much love from Sweden :)
A breed of my heart. Ive had my heart shattered to pieces, twice, by two of these beautiful goons. 😔💔
What a handsome, well behaved boy.
"Wags his little nubbin" love that line.
Excellent video.
I have 2 Wiggle butts! Father and son, my 6th and 7th boxers!😅
so sweet, lost my boy last December to heart condition. Luckily we got 10 years with him.
Sorry mate. We get so attached to our pets.
watching Cooper made me tear up. Lost my Betty 2,5 years ago. But smiling with all the sweet memories than come up as well. Best doggo ever!
I had one for 14 years and saw my two children come to this world and played with them . Still today cry missing him , he was the best in every way 😊
Hi dear
Incredible how the 2 of you bring warms smiles AND a warm heart to an old man. Thanks.
It is a beautiful channel, isn't it?
Our boxer lived 16years. I miss her dearly 🥹🥹
They are just precious 💕
Absolutely the most protective dog breeds ever, truly man’s best friend
Happy tears here. I grew up with a brindle boxer mix. Best dog we ever had. He used to play fetch with himself. We lost him at 6 to aggressive bone cancer. I miss that good boy.
We always talk about the dogs but Vanessa, you are a dear and beautiful woman (inside and out)!
I am very grateful for your channel, your knowledge and your gentle spirit!
Thank you for the lovely content and cudos to the cameraman (and anyone else, if there is) contributing to creating these videos and sharing them.
Great job!
"Slobber off your ceilings" explains a lot about visiting one of my friend's houses as a little kid and her mom was on a stepladder looking exasperated at said ceiling, Chloe the boxer running amok outside in the yard.
I cried thinking of my Josie I lost from cancer. She will always be in my heart.
So happy to see that I’m not the only one. I had one for 12 happy years and often people were amazed how human he was. And how a kisser too.
Imagine having a new dog coming in to your door every day ☺️
My boxer passed away 3 months ago, we are yet to get over it. They are the best ! RIP Bosco
I know the pain, I lost my boy almost a year ago, he was only 6 and half, I still get teary sometimes thinking back..
Cooper’s face while in the happy hoodie needs to go on a t-shirt….too adorable ☺️
That was an epic Happy Hoody reveal!
That pitiful happy hoodie face was too cute.
Ha he’s certainly looking happy in his happy hoodie 🤣🤣🤣
Boxers are awesome silly goofs. A had one as a very young child. Or, rather, my grandparents had one and I got to use him as a willing nap pillow all around friend. Still miss you bubber
My Boxer baby is 4.. his name is Tyson, best dog EVER..so good with our kids.. he gives hugs and kisses to everyone, and anyone that sits the couch becomes his personal seat...he's completely unaware he's not a human🤣💕🐶
They are the pure energy of love contained within a dog body.
My present Boxer Rocky is my fourth.
It tears my heart out to lose them but I love them forever.
Reminds me of Faith!!!! I loved her and Hope too. Sweetest dogs ever!!!!!
"Their bravery trait..."
I'm not doubting your historical knowledge, girl, but I have literally seen a Boxer be scared of its own shadow. 😂
My Boxer was afraid of everything, but maybe in the 1800's they were more brave 🤣
My dog's brave!!!!!
As long as I'm standing with him.
If you were actually in danger, I know they'd step up. But it wouldn't be a display of aggression. They play defense.
I took care of a boxer for a few months while the owner was away and she took great pride in guarding the farm we lived on 😍 she even used to drag herself out of her warm bed to come outside with me when I went outside at night for a cigarette (smoking is bad kids don't do it), I'm convinced she did it to make sure I was ok and I will not hear otherwise lol.
Our boxer fought two Rottweilers to protect a kid
There should be a TV dog crime drama called, “Cooper and the Meatball”. I would watch that. Lol.
I would too!
Always think they have such expressive faces...how could you not fall in love with Cooper
Such a cute boiiii!!! 🥺❤
Humans getting cancer is sad and all but I will never be more inspired to find a cure to cancer then I am when I find out a dog has it
Whenever I feel down I'm going to come back and look at Cooper in his happy hoodie.
Hi Luna
Oh I like dogs too. How are you doing today and where are you from? 😊
Buddy, hitting on women in the comment section of a TH-cam video is not the way. Please do yourself a favour and read about what women want and most importantly what they DON'T want. Spend at least 5 hours on it. I'm not trying to be offensive or mean, but you need to be better than this
I love my boxer so much, he's such a blessing for my family.
Pumpkin pie spray is perfect for this pumpkin colored Cooper, good memories of my
Libby girl from 1970’s. Yes, they are kind and affectionate, great breed for children to grow up together, no fur baby ever lives long enough for sure.🦮
He was so interested in what she was doing, but so good.
The cooper hug at the end was priceless 😢😢😢
Amazing!! First time in his life at a professional groomer, he was no trouble at all.
1:06 - "Fortunately for us, Cooper is still here to make us all smile." Then why am I fighting back tears when I heard that?
Same
My grandparents had a boxer named Boswell. He was so smart and sweet, but when we had to ride in the back seat with him, we argued over who got the slobbering or the farting end. 😆
😁

Got to agree Boxers are the best. I had my Lilly for 13 years. As a grown man I shed tears over my girls passing.
Loved this one! My mom and dad adopted a Boxer back in 1963, and named her Ginger. When dad was laid off from Boeing, we moved to Sacramento (and he worked for McDonnell Douglas) and brought her both down and back to Seattle. She was a great dog!
Girl With The Dogs: "This dog cheated death."
Death: *"Yo, what the-"*
Death was thanos spanned by the thanos dog
Love the username!
YOUR NAME HAHAHAHHQHQ

@e no, not a rickroll
Oh my gosh he is adorable so handsome - as a child my Dad owned a dog like this, Bongo was his name and I was so proud as he walked me to school. Memories from over 40yrs ago.
Oh mah gravy! Tell me he’s going to be Mr October in a 2022 calendar because the still at the end was PERFECTION 💜💜💜
I grew up with them and got one for my son. They're are very loyal and sweet.
Having had 3 boxers I can say they are the best. Very good traveling companions. Very smart, funny, loyal, protective and sensitive.
Owned 3 boxers in my lifetime, did 7 years of RSPCA volunteering too, and I can entirely agree that when it comes to boxers, no other dog comes even close when it comes to the idea of "human like" personality.
It’s crazy how this is the only breed i’ve ever heard this exact characterization for by anyone who’s ever owned one!
100% agree, fantastic they are
Thank you for sharing this sweet video. We lost our best boy, Joe Boxer, on December 6, 2019. He was 10 years old and took his last breath with his head in my lap. He was the greatest dog we’ve ever owned, our once-in-a-lifetime pupper. We miss him every day.
When i was in New Zealand i encountered a boxer. At first she barked nonstop, but after a few seconds of sniffing me out and memorizing my scent, she calmed down immediately and boy was she playful after that. Lol such a gorgeous breed.
I had a lovely female boxer for 12 years. Berlin was perfection. She was and will always be the best dog I ever had ❤️
I had a boxer that lived up to 10 years old and died a calm painless death sleeping in the living room. She was a big sweetheart
I must agree with Boxers being one of the best breeds ever. Our Boxer lady Sissi is now 10 years and still acts like a puppy. She's doing great and the thought of loosing this loyal and so incredibly human like friend is heart shattering to me. She never encountered the problems listed above but she did have some medical situations. If you feel like getting this breed, you're in for a very emotional, loving companion :3
I truly love this dog
