Finn is the same with the big brindle eye patches and his spots over his body he has been mistaken as a dalmatian a few times before. So techically he is a very, very flashy brindle boxer

I would agree with the above posters that if they did indeed lack a black mask I would think the background being all boxer would be sketchy. I was able to open the links and the puppy shown indeed has a black mask so I am not sure what the OP was talking about. There is white in some areas as all flashy boxers have but there is a black mask. Maybe she meant the other puppies?

On the subject of the breeder, regardless of all the money or love she has with the puppies she breeds, it doesn't make it right. I would be curious to find out what her idea of doing all the health test is. As well, if she doesn't know anything about general boxer breed info such as colour, she certainly has no business breeding them and IMHO no business owning them. Why is it people don't even research a breed before owning, let alone breeding?!

I was able to get the links to work by clicking on them, deleting the ".jpg" and typing it again...odd, but it worked.

Anyway, I agree...the black mask is there. Maybe since the mask is faded the OP assumed it wasn't black?

Weird. I did exactly like you said Alisha. I clicked on the link, erased the jpg and retyped it and bam there were the pictures. That's a first. Thanks. I'm new to this area of the forum. There is ALOT of pink on the noses. I would really love to see a picture of the mom though.

That's normal for a flashy puppy at that age. Chances are the black on the nose will be moslty (if not all the way) filled in by the time the puppy is ready for its new home.
