White Boxer Facts
I hope that this information will help dispel any myths that you have heard about White Boxers:
- White Boxers are not as rare as some believe. Approximately 25% of all Boxers are born white. Some of the first foundation dogs for the Boxer breed were white.
- They do not have more health problems and are not sick more often than fawn or brindle Boxers. There is no clinical evidence that shows that the White Boxer is at a higher risk for health problems.
- Not all them are deaf. Only about 18% of all White Boxers are deaf and they can also be tested for deafness when they are puppies. Deaf Boxers can be trained using a variety of methods including hand signals, sign language, flashlights and more. Training any Boxer, hearing or deaf, requires time, patience and understanding.
- They are not mean. They are like any other Boxer and have the same personalities. People think they are meaner because of their looks which some confuse with a Pit Bull or American Bulldog.
- They are not albinos. They have white-colored hair and do have pigmentation. Albinos lack any pigmentation and have pink eyes and no color on their body. White boxers have colored eyes, sometimes colored patches on their coat, and black spots on their skin.
- They can be registered with the American Kennel Club and the Canadian Kennel Club to show that they are purebred and their pedigree despite the popular belief that they cannot. What they cannot do is to be shown in the conformation ring which is unfortunate, but they can be shown in obedience. Even though White Boxers are usually not used for breeding, they make great family dogs and are just as loving and playful as brindle and fawn Boxers.
