I say hands down, Boxer. I have a 1 year old grandson and got my Heidi 5 months ago at 12 weeks of age. She lets him crawl all over her, sleeps by his bed, if he cries she has to go see what's wrong and now that he is trying to walk, she lets him hang on to her and try to walk. She is, by far, the easiest dog I have EVER trained. I have done rescue for years - but never had the pleasure to have a Boxer until I got one myself on HUGE recommendations from many with their nature with little ones. They were all correct! She is flat out spectacular! Any time I have tried to teach her something, she has learned it in under 5 minutes! She was house-trained in 3 days. Without "formal" training yet, she will sit, lay down, shake (both paws), high five (both paws), stay, come, and more. She aims to please and cannot wait to learn new things.

Subject: [boxer lovers] Hello
Hello,
My name is Sam Finch and I am kind of narrowing down my choices between a boxer and a german shepherd. I have 2 small children and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what type of boxer, training tips, etc. Thanks
