Not very helpful Amazon Customer This book was a disappointment. It seems to be written for boxer breeders, or show dog owners not for your average boxer lover. Too technical and boring. I wish I could find the book I had 13 years ago when I bought my first boxer. It was awesome. Now that we have taken in a rescue 8 month old I needed a refresher and this book wasn't it!!.
