10. Boxer

Boxers represent medium to large dogs with boundless energy and playful spirits. Originally developed in Germany for hunting and guarding, Boxers demonstrate strength and athleticism. They show loyalty to their families and typically interact well with children, but their exuberance can overwhelm. Without proper training, Boxers may become aggressive, especially toward smaller animals. Consistent guidance and early socialization remain essential for this breed.
