EPITOME BOXERS

I think as soon as I could BREATHE l loved dogs! As a child (the youngest of 6) my parents had already heard every story there was about how "I will take care of it" and by the time I came along and begged for a dog, they just weren't having it. When I was about 14 new neighbors moved in and they had a boxer. He was tied up in the back corner of their yard, and it just so happened that Zeus was right by our shared fence. I was so taken with his looks and his demeanor that I knew from that age this was the dog for me... As an adult I just couldn't wait to fulfill my dream as a boxer owner and eventually I met my mentor and soon to be my best friend, Sandee Leschewski, Shadoefax boxers. She taught me so much about breeding and showing and health testing. Back in that day we were laughed at by many of our "peers" because we were wasting our time doing echocardiogram, thyroid panels and hip x-rays (early 90s). Sandee and I co-bred and co-owned many litters/dogs together and I learned so..
