Brindle Boxer Dog
What does reverse brindles mean? These are boxer dogs
that give off an effect of fawn colored striping on
a black coat. The stripes that appear are only illusions
that these boxers have a reverse coat. If you are to
follow the guidelines of breeding, your boxer must be
able to show its fawn coat through the brindle. If not,
they can be ineligible. Do you want a black boxer? Chances
are you won't find one because boxers do not carry the
black pigmentation gene.
Another thing you should know about the coloration of
your brindle boxer. Look down at your brindle boxer.
Do you notice the dark stripes on his coat runs towards
the ribs? Breeding standards states that any stripes
must contrast with the dog's coat. If your dog should
have white marks, as long as they improve its look,
it is okay for them to have.
The American Kennel Club (AKC) developed seven categories
for dogs to be sorted under. These categories are: herding,
hound, terrier, non-sporting, sporting, working and
toy. Boxers make up the largest breed in the working
category. No matter what the color of the dog is it
has been proven to be useful, loyal and loving rolled
into one.
There is no difference to caring for a boxer when the
boxer is of a different breed. They still need the love
and attention too. Brindle boxers need to have an all-natural,
healthy diet to help aid in his/her growing. Having
natural food is much more recommended than commercial
brand dog food.
There is a special diet designed for boxers. Owners
can use the BARF diet to give or take away appendages
that are in his/her food. The Biologically Appropriate
Raw Food diet will usually comprise of raw meat, raw
vegetables, milk products, eggs, bones, grains and fruits.
BARF is wonderful because you make the choice of what
goes into your boxer's body. With BARF, you can also
take out food products that your boxer canine doesn't
seem to like.
It would not hurt to add in yogurt to the diet plan.
It can keep your boxer fit and hearty. However, like
people, your boxer can have allergies to food too. Two
not so good foods for your friend are raisins and grapes
especially in large quantities. Too much of these can
cause your dog to suffer from acute kidney failure.
