The United States Boxer Association is the only organization of its kind in the USA.
We are dedicated to preserving and promoting the original, working heritage of this
magnificent breed of dog.
The United States Boxer Association (USABOX) club was formed for the purpose of advancing
and preserving the original working heritage of the Boxer. Our shows and trials
follow the German/European show and trial model as set forth by the German Boxer
Club (bk-muenchen.de) and ATIBOX (ATIBOX Home). We also accept and abide by the
FCI standard (FCI Breed Standard - Deutscher Boxer ) for the Boxer breed. Many of
our members, to prove the ongoing merits of the Boxer as a premier working dog, train
and participate in the sport of schutzhund (What is schutzhund?). Training and being
successful in this sport requires a life-long commitment as it is NOT easy! It also
requires you to have a dog that's mentally and physically cut out for it. Unfortunately,
not every Boxer has what it takes to be a schutzhund competitor. Every one, even
those bred from strong working lines, has different levels of drive(s) and different
levels of interest in particular activities. That doesn't make one Boxer better
than another, though. Oh no! EVERY Boxer is the greatest dog on the face of the
Earth! You may have a schutzhund star. Another may rock the obedience and agility
rings. One may be an “all arounder” that loves to do everything and does everything
well. One may be content to play around the yard and go for leisurely walks. The
most important fact is that YOUR Boxer brings a smile to your face every single day
of its life, regardless of *what* it is doing. There is no greater reward than that!
USABOX is a proud member and supporter of ATIBOX and the AWDF
