I heard one women on here telling this one women that she bought her dog thru a BYB and her dog was big for the Standard. Then I see the album pics of her Boxers. Wow, they were way off the Standard in terms of Head structure. Just saying that size is not the only disqualification for a boxer.
I don't know what thread you had originally posted this in but I don't know where you are getting that everyone seems to have a preoccupation with size. It appears you're pretty new to the site... stick around for a while and you'll see that's not ALL we talk about And there certainly is NO need to point out flaws in other peoples' boxers just because they failed to mention every little disqualifying feature of their dog. If overall adherence to the breed standard was not the original topic of discussion then that's probably why the poster didn't feel the need to address every little thing that's "wrong" with their dog.
