Is a miniature boxer good with children?

Answer by  CptMorgan (41)

My friend has a miniature boxer and it is the most well behaved dog you will ever see. Even around kids it is a great. The dog minds well and does not jump up on his small children. He also has a lab and the boxer gets along fine with the lab as well.

Yes a miniature boxer is very good with children especially if the dog is a puppy and grows with the children, the miniature boxers are well mannered and playful, their temperament is mild and they are well mannered, it being a miniature boxer it would have less of a tendency to jump on the children and knocking them down.

There is no such thing as a miniature boxer. Boxers, in general make wonderful family pets. They may not be the best for small children because they do tend to play a little rough.

I personally believe that there is not dog that is better or worse with children. I would be careful if they tend to attack the dog because hip and joint problems could occur in a minature bred. They have lots of energy and what a better way than to give them children to play with!

This dog will do very well with children as long as the children are not too timid. The boxer will be loyal and loving, but it will also have a lot of energy that could lead to the dog accidentally knocking the child down in play.

Boxers are very high energy dogs, and will enjoy being able to play with the children. A miniature boxer would be better for kids than a standard boxer, as well.
