Bo, is without a doubt large! What nobody told us is that having a boxer is similar to having a hyper 3 year old child with allergies and a VERY bad case of the slobbers. However, he is the sweetest dog we've ever owned, he adores the children and would guard them with his life. He's also incredibly gentle with them, especially considering his size! We got Bo when Kairi was 6 months old, because we had heard that boxers are great family dogs, and that has proven to be true.
Just today Bo showed that he will protect his children in all regards! Ky saw a bee in the house this afternoon and as any 2 year old female would she began screaming as though it had already stung her! Captain Bo came to the rescue, which seems an odd thing for a dog to do when it's only a bee! In any case he jumped in front of Ky and began aimlessly pouncing (did I mention that he is always using those heavy paws of his, I guess you have to get your name somehow), he ended up getting stung in the mouth, but the bee definitely didn't get Kairi. Korvin says he's a hero, silly kids.
All kids need a pet, as annoyingly hyper and disgusting Bo is we couldn't be without him! We went out of town for 4 days leaving Bo at my parents house and the only reason the kids were ready to come home from our trip is so that we could go get their Boey. When they finally got him back you would have thought that it was Christmas, they were so excited! Bo was understandably tired since according to me dad he slept little and wore a path in their carpet from all of his pacing and after greeting everyone he proceeded to pass out and not wake until the next morning.
