does a boxer get to 29 inches?

Answer 1

Dogs are measured at the withers (shoulders.)
A boxer should NEVER get this big. Great Danes are 30 inches at the withers. Boxers are probably more like 21 - 25 inches.

Answer 2

This is the standard found in the akc.org site.
A dog should be measured from the floor to the withers ( shulders)
Size
Adult males 23 to 25 inches; females 21½ to 23½ inches at the withers. Proper balance and quality in the individual should be of primary importance since there is no size disqualification.

I breed chihuahuas and mine are mostly within the standard of 6 pounds or under I do have 2 femaled that are 8 pounds.
However there is a backyard breeder in my area and she sells her pups as the made up teacup chihuahuas and htey all mature out to 10 pounds or more.
Saying this it is possible that a boxer can get that big but it would be a definate pet quality.

Answer 3

According to American Kennel Club (AKC) this is the standard Size: Adult males 23 to 25 inches; females 21½ to 23½ inches at the withers. Proper balance and quality in the individual should be of primary importance since there is no size disqualification. This does not mean that there aren't boxers out there that are 29" tall it just isn't the common size.

I know that someone made a reference to that being the height of a Great Dane. Just remember dogs can be breed to be shorter than the norm or taller than the norm it really just depends on what the breeder is trying to accomplish and that is usually something a little different than what every one else is doing but still within the standard guide lines. Also just to let you know this is the standard for Great Danes size, Proportion, Substance
The male should appear more massive throughout than the *****, with larger frame and heavier bone. In the ratio between length and height, the Great Dane should be square. In bitches, a somewhat longer body is permissible, providing she is well proportioned to her height. Coarseness or lack of substance are equally undesirable. The male shall not be less than 30 inches at the shoulders, but it is preferable that he be 32 inches or more, providing he is well proportioned to his height. The female shall not be less than 28 inches at the shoulders, but it is preferable that she be 30 inches or more, providing she is well proportioned to her height. Danes under minimum height must be disqualified.

Answer 4

If it did it would be poorly bred or a mix, they are supposed to be MEDIUM sized dogs. Most will be within an inch of the heights listed in the standard.

General Appearance
The ideal Boxer is a medium-sized, square-built dog of good substance with short back, strong limbs, and short, tight-fitting coat. His well-developed muscles are clean, hard, and appear smooth under taut skin. His movements denote energy. The gait is firm yet elastic, the stride free and ground-covering, the carriage proud. Developed to serve as guard, working, and companion dog, he combines strength and agility with elegance and style. His expression is alert and his temperament steadfast and tractable.

The chiseled head imparts to the Boxer a unique individual stamp. It must be in correct proportion to the body. The broad, blunt muzzle is the distinctive feature, and great value is placed upon its being of proper form and balance with the skull.

In judging the Boxer first consideration is given to general appearance and overall balance. Special attention is then devoted to the head, after which the individual body components are examined for their correct construction, and the gait evaluated for efficiency.

Size
Adult males 23 to 25 inches; females 21½ to 23½ inches at the withers. Proper balance and quality in the individual should be of primary importance since there is no size disqualification.

Answer 5

I have a 2.5 y/ male boxer (awesome dog), my first boxer. My vet commented that he is a tall boxer and very lean-all muscle. He is taller than most other boxers we've been around. He is 24 inches at the shoulders (if I measured correctly). Hope this info helps.
