There is no way to completely stop the shedding since it's a mammal.
Go to the pet store and get a brush called the Furminator. It's about $45 but it's completely worth it. It works wonders and gets all the extra hair out. Brush your dog every few days to help reduce the shedding.
Also, make sure you are not bathing the dog too often because that can cause excessive shedding (once a month is enough for the baths). And a good quality dog food will help (I feed my dogs Canidae).

You wont be able to stop the shedding completely but you may be able to cut down the shedding by brushing.
buy a very good brush you may be able to get a good one from your nearest vets there might have special ones for shedding or may not,it depends on way you live.
Brush the dog a couple times day outside may be best or you could lay down some newspaper. When you wash your dog buy some special shampoo for dogs for shedding and it can stop the shedding also when you wash your dog after brushing him and every thing get a slice of bread and sometimes it removes lose hair it depends on the type of dogs hair(im not sure how it works with boxers)

No one can stop any dog from shedding. It's what dogs do. You can cut down on the shedding by brushing the dog often, feeding a really good quality dog food and by not over-bathing and drying out their skin and coat.

i had a white boxer, what I realized is that if you take him outside and brush him twice a day it really cut down on the amount that they shed in the house. Brush him with a thick brush that get lots of loose hair out. Good luck!

sorry but nothing can compleletely put a stop to shedding. feed a good quality food with at least 3 meats in it(not meat by products) Feeding quality food reduces shedding. and don't forget to groom your dog at least once a week.

Dogs shed. There is no way to stop it but you can control some of it through diet and grooming.
