We are looking for a boxer puppy, in the ny state area. I know that they can be expensive. we just want a good family dog, not a show dog. I am looking to not spend over $500 it is just to much. I do know they are not free or cheep. I do know vet bills are a lot too and I am fully ready for it. our last boxer just in vet bills was over $5000 just in the first year alone. (but don't tell my husband). I do want to be conservitave in the cost, because you never know the dog could be fine and than something shows up down the road, and yes a good breeder will take the dog back. but once you fall in love with a dog you would never give it a way just cause it needs medical attention. I have looked at a few breeders & they want 800-2000 and up. I don't want a puppy mill dog. I have had a boxer before, my husband has had 3 or 4 before we meet. I feel that they are best for kids, my boys are not young they are 8,10,13 years old. but every kid needs a dog. please if you can think of someone that can help me that would be great. I was told that if a breeder with show dogs, had a white puppy, they are usually sold for around $200.However I did speak to a breeder and she wanted $800. for a white puppy. and on the AKC boxer site it said that a wwhite boxer from a good breeder should be any where from free to $200. (does any one know) I do under stand that white boxers are usually with more medically conditions, and I am fine with that either def or blind. there are special training classes for them and I think it would be a great bonding experiance. I am willing to go to nj, pa or ct.
thanks,
Lorraine
