The BOXER: Family Favorite, by Stephanie Abraham.
A Howell Best of Breed Book.

Boxer Lovers -- Buy This BOOK!!!

As a librarian, breed book collector, and longtime Boxer fancier, I can say with no fear of contradiction that this is the best and most up-to-date book on our breed published since I started out in Boxers nearly 30 years ago! It has everything the new owner OR dyed-in-the-wool fancier could want: gorgeous, carefully selected photos from today's premier Boxer photographer, Marcia Adams, as well as numerous other color photos; well organized and easily accessible information on breed genetics and health problems; and sections on Boxer temperament and care and feeding from newborn to old age. The chapter on breeding is especially thoughtful, with a discussion of present-day issues such as pet overpopulation. There’s a fine history of the breed's beginnings (several photos I've never seen before), and a "Who's Who" of present day notable dogs and kennels.

The striking format of The Boxer: Family Favorite makes it an eye catching coffee table display book, too. Run, do not walk, to http://www.amazon.com to snap up The Boxer before the first printing is history. :-)
