What is the Best sport for a boxer to participate in?
Hello, I own a flashy fawn boxer, and I would love to know what dog sports he can participate in, like which ones would be the best for his health, more fun for him, etc. he is 3 years old and LOVES to run! Thank you, please reply if you have any ideas.

Woohoo!
But they can compete in ANY dog sport! That's the beauty of a boxer. Well, one of the beauties anyway

Personally I've found agility to be the most accessible activity, and its a blast! I think I'd give Schutzhund a try if there were any clubs participating in it around here, but that isn't the case. So agility it is!

Any canine sport that is lots of fun. Ours do Obedience and are training in agility. Good luck with your decision.

Gina loves working trials .. it incorporates, tracking, searching, agility, send outs and a bit of control.
