His belly hit the ground about 2 feet from me and he anxiously watched, not twitching a muscle, until I figured a way to get up. I'd really been afraid he'd be trying to "help." Once I was up he very carefully escorted me back to the house ... and wouldn't let me out of his sight for hours.

OUCH Boxers never grow up. What is odd though is how gentle they are with babies and the elderly. They seem to know who they can be rough with and who they have to be gentle with.

The worst injury happened after we first rescued him and we were tying him when we went outside until we could determine if he'd take off. One day, I'd just got the hook onto his collar. He saw a chipmunk and bolted. I couldn't move fast enough to get the rope from around my ankle. This was the result (not for the weak of heart :-)

What is cute in a puppy and maybe acceptable with a small poodle (because they can't hurt you as much or be as destructive) is not even a little acceptable in a dog hitting 50 or more pounds with a lot of muscle mass behind them.
