I have a 4 month old boxer and it took some time to potty train, but she got the hang of it. We taught her to sit and hi 5 within 4 weeks so i would say they are very easy to train. I have 2 children 9 and 13 and she is great with kids, the breeder has 3 boxers and they are all great with kids, very protective of the kids.
You will love a boxer they are a real nice dog.

Hi, I understand that you are looking for some advice or resources to help fully train your dog or fix behavior problems. If a professional dog trainer is not an option at this time, or if you want to trt training your dog on your own (a great way to bond), I'd suggest you https://bitly.im/aL2x3
A friend recommened it to me a few years ago, and I was amazed how quickly it worked, which is why I recommend it to others. The dog training academy also has as an excellent home training course.

Boxers are one of the smartest dogs. You just have to be patient with the training. You have to work at it whether or not its hyper.

They are great pets, easy to train and willing to learn.
However, they are very easy to excite, and boisterous.
Do not cut off their tail, but do get insurance for it being hurt or breaking stuff.
Good luck, you are buying a great and lovable animal who is great with kids.
Treat him or her well,ok.
