I can also say one thing about boxers or 2,I had gotten Rosie when my oldest was 2 and my little guy was about 8mo old( the boys are 17 mo apart
)
my 2 boys have put that dog threw he!!,jumping on her, pulling her ,sleeping on her,they even held on to her when the youngest started to walk.That dog is more like a guardian /big sister to them than just a dog.Some days I luv my dog more than people
..As the say,if you ever want to know who is more loyal,your dog or wife put them both in a car trunk,after 1 hr open trunk and see which one is happy to see you
my bet is on the boxer
