Description
The Boxerdoodle is a hybrid breed that
is developed by breeding a Boxer with a
Poodle. This breeds appearance is a
combination of both of its parents. Since
both parents have distinct features,
these usually stand out in the breed.
The coat is usually luxurious. It may
have many curls or just long wavy fur.
This breed is usually a combination of
the standard Poodle, so the body is

is average in size with a short muzzle
and vague stop. Its neck is typically
average in length and well muscled. It
extends to its shoulders, which are
slightly sloping. The back should be
level. The limbs are strong. The front
legs should stand straight while the
back legs are well angled.

The temperament of the Boxerdoodle is
based on the general temperament of
its parents. In general, this breed
should be an easy-going family
companion. It gets along with everyone

special breed to their family.
ADOPT A
BOXERDOODLE
This is the boxerdoodle,
Gustav, compliments of
Annielie.
Above and to the right are examples of some boxerdoodle puppies and a couple of adults I found on the internet and Gustav compliments of Annielie. **I will be docking the tails and dewclaws on mine also** I hope to have assorted colors in this litter but don't expect them to be large as Gustav because my male is only 38-40lbs and Layla is only 48-50lbs. These are NOT from my dogs just examples.
Here is the email from Gustav's mom:
"I saw you were going to breed boxerdoodles, I have one, his name is Gustav and is 70lbs. His temperament is a boxer with his playfulness and energy. It's the best mix, and they are cute! He is from a brindle boxer mom and black standard poodle dad. Figured maybe you wanted some pictures to show, there is none online of an adult boxerdoodle. He has a wavy non-shedding coat but I keep it short for convenience."
