boxatricks

Thanks bommy, Thought it must be something simple like that as they are such neat and tidy looking dogs. Yes, I understand about becoming a member of the state cc, as I used to show many years ago

Hi, I'm a newbie here and have spent most of my saturday reading through all the very interesting stuff on this forum, often getting side tracked and forgetting where I started. This is a fantasic site loaded with info and very helpful people I'm hoping to be lucky enough to get a boxer puppy soon and I am looking to show him/her. One thing I didn't know (among other things ) is that boxers have to be clipped for the show ring? Can anyone please tell me what exactly needs to be clipped? Also, are their whites still chalked, I did hear that this was no longer allowed? Apart from general bathing and grooming is there anything else I should know about? I know I can ask the breeder when I come to buy my special baby, but at the moment I am busy getting as much info as I can. Thank you
