I have a pond behind my house and was curious as to if boxers like swimming or the water?

 

[Bubbaboy]

I guess there is only one way to find out...  go to the pond

 

[Scoop]

actually boxers are not very good swimers so you have to keep an eye until you consider it's safe

My boxer daisy loves water. She kept digging the water out of her water bowl so we put her a kiddie pool outside and she is happy.

Depends, Milo HATES water, Kaci LOVES water and Harley would stick his head in, but wouldn't go in over his chest...so it differs boxer to boxer.

Mine love the water as long as there is no soap involved.  LOL

I really don't know with my two...I got Jetta early september and by the time she was vaccinated, swimming season was over...we just got Bo...so no idea yet...i hope they like to swim

Some do, some don't. Buster would sink like a cinderblock, Maddie swims really good, but doesn't really care for it.  :roll:

Before Mine passed on,1 loved it(but would swim until exhausted & had to help him out a few times) & other only like water to drink or when being bathed.no swimmin for him he would walk on water to get out of lake & back on boat.

Lola did not like water originally.

we only took sumya to the doggie beach once. the water was a little chilly so i think she did not care for it.she does however, love a nice warm bubble bath.

You tell me.  Here are a couple of my Boxer Retriever

I put Tyson in our pool over the summer and he was such a good swimmer ( I have a video of it).  My parents also live on a lake, so we are going to try that next year.

Maggie loves going in the ocean or the bay... Jessie runs away from the smallest waves when were on the beach...

Lola absolutely loves the water now.

Charlie is not a fan of water.  Completely my fault, I'd never owned a pet before and everybody told me to give em a little toss and mother nature would kick in when they hit the water.  Boy was that ever wrong!  Charlie looked like a boat anchor, the wife had to move in to pick him up outta the water.  If we go to the lake, he gets in with a little force, but never above the bottom of his chest.  I was more delicate with Sadie, I carried her into the lake and her little legs were kickin before she touched the water.  She loved it!  I'm hoping over time Charlie becomes more comfortable with water.

Aww Vinnie, Kiah loved Vinnie but he wasn't too thrilled with her

 

[GollyMissMolly]

Molly loves the water. If there's a pond, lake, creek, or even a pool anywhere nearby, she's in it.

It depends on the Boxer...Buck was water dog, anytime anyone was in the pool, so was he. Tia didn't like it but she could swim if she had to. Samson isn't real thrilled either, but when we take him to the creek, he can be coaxed in for a swim....Angel, I don't know about, she may be a water Boxer for all I know :lol:
