9 Reasons It Is Scientifically Proven That Boxers Are The BEST Dogs

9 Reasons It Is Scientifically Proven That Boxers Are The BEST Dogs
Leslie Stratton

Who does not want a puppy? I want to overcommit and get ten. But seriously.

Getting a dog is so exciting. From naming the little gal/guy to the full grown years, dogs bring so much happiness, no matter the breed.

If you have ever owned or knew someone who owned a Boxer, you know they are not like any other type of canine. Their squishy faces and weird personalities (come on, it is true) make you fall in love with them over and over again.

Here are nine things Boxer lovers/owners know to be true:

1. Waggy Butts


Fun fact: soon after they are born, the majority of a Boxers' tail is cut off. For this reason, when Boxers wag their "tail," they whip their ENTIRE BODY. It is amazing. And so happy.

2. The Head Turn


I know other dog breeds do this, but there is something about a Boxer doing it that makes you that much happier. I may be biased.

3. The Squishy Face

Insert drool here.

4. The Stare


When you look up from reading and they are LITERALLY staring into your soul from across the room. Good times.

5. Boxer Puppies

Maybe I am biased. But Boxer puppies are some of the cutest ever. On earth.

6. Water.

Boxers are really bizarre with water. Some love it, some despise it. Either way, watching them interact with water is massively entertaining.

7. Energy


SO. MUCH. ENERGY. When you are around other dogs, you forget how low maintenance they are in comparison to your Boxer.

8. They are just so endearingly weird.

It is true. This is why we love them.

9. The Love

Boxers have so much love to give and love getting it in return. Who does not love to be loved? I know the baby above does.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
