DAMS
These are my Dams. I keep most of my dogs even if they are fixed. The only ones that leave are females that can not get along with the rest of the pack for some reason. Since all my dogs are now in 2 packs they must get along in one of the packs or they must leave. They must be able to come in the house to stay without causing major dog fights.
Clarice:Retired
This is Clarice, she is a Flashy Brindle Female and she is the leader of my pack. She was born October 10th 2004. She weighs 60 pounds. She came down with Milk Bag Fever with her second litter. Milk Bag Fever is when all the calcium goes into her milk for her babies. This causes problem with her bones and joints, so as not to pass this on to any of the puppies in the future, or in my bloodline. I had her fixed. She is a very sweet girl and leads the pack well. She is CKC registered and will live her life here with the family. She will not be sold just because she can no longer have pups, like a lot of breeders do!

Peling
This is Peling, she is a Bold Face Fawn Boxer. She was born April 21 2006. She weighs 64 pounds. She loves to sit in my lap and give me kisses. She is another Boxer who loves her babies and will take care of any puppies as long as the other mothers let her. She is CKC registered.

SPLIT FACES
There is thought to be a separate gene or modifier that causes some dogs with Irish spotting or the piebald pattern to have a split face. This is when half of the face is white and the other half is colored. This pattern occurs often on double Merle, but it's just a natural part of the double Merle pattern, and is not caused by any extra genes. It's only when it appears on Irish spotted and piebald dogs that it raises eyebrows.
Madia
This is Madia, She is a Black Mask Brindle Boxer. She was born July 15, 2005. She weighs 56 pounds. She is one of my smaller boxers, but she is a great mother. She likes to flirt with the boys when she comes into heat and she picks the male she wants or she won't breed. She is CKC registered.

Shushu
Here is Shushu, she is a Black Mask Fawn Female. She was born August 15, 2006. She weighs 52 pounds and was wormed November 26th 2008. She gets along with the pack most of the time, but she can be a fighter when she has babies. She is CKC registered.

Hallenia
This young lady is Hallenia. She is a white Boxer. She was born October 12, 2006. She weighs 49 pounds. She has not had a litter yet. She has had her first litter and did great. She had 5 pups her first litter and all of them lived and did well. She is CKC registered. PLEASE EXCUSE THE MUD, AS THE DOGS WERE PLAYING OUTSIDE IN THE MUD AND SNOW, BEFORE COMING IN TO BE WORMED!
WHITE BOXERS
One of the most interesting cases of white patterning occurs in the Boxer. Boxers generally come in the irish spotting pattern, so we would expect most examples of the breed to have sisi on the S locus. However, sometimes Boxer puppies are born which are completely or almost completely white. How these puppies could be regularly born to parents with much more colour perplexed Boxer breeders for a long time.
However, we can now provide an answer to this. Breeders have been breeding for "flashy" dogs, which are irish spotted dogs with more white than the normal pattern usually produces. It turns out that these dogs have more white than normal because they are not homozygous for si. Their genotype is, in fact, sisw, so they have one gene for irish spotting and one for extreme white. This is what causes them to have extra white - the incomplete dominance that si has over sw results in a dog with more white than normal irish spotting. When two of these flashy dogs are bred together, one in four of the puppies will have the extreme white pattern:
Meecie
This is Meecie, she is a very dark Black Mask Brindle Female. She was born August 15, 2006. She weighs 53 pounds. This girl looks like her grandmother DyerDyer. She is CKC registered. PLEASE EXCUSE THE MUD, AS THE DOGS WERE PLAYING OUTSIDE IN THE MUD AND SNOW, BEFORE COMING IN TO BE WORMED!
Sachie
This is Sachie, she is a very rare Black, White and Tan Boxer. She was born December 28, 2005. She weighs 66 pounds. She was my first Tri color boxer. I was so up set over her that I took her, mother and father to be DNA tested. She passed with flying colors so I kept her. She is CKC registered.

Anyone who has had a pack of dogs should know that no strange dogs can invade their pack without getting killed. There is no way it could breed the female, lock with it and then wait for her to release him!! Then excape without ending up dead. I had my pack kill one of my males once over breeding rights.
Irish spotting (sisi) is the pattern sometimes known as "boston" or "mantle". It is typically seen on the Boston Terrier, Great Dane, Border Collie, Boxer, Rough Collie and various other breeds. On a dog with irish spotting, white is found on the legs, the tip of the tail, the chest, neck and muzzle. Many dogs with this pattern have a full white neck ring and a blaze. White on the underside of the body is also a common trait. They also carry what is known as a Piebald gene. This comes from having White in the gene pool as well as the reverse seal and fawn. This causes the boxer to have 3 colors in the gene pool instead of just fawn and brindle. I did not set out to do this, but am tired of people who don't know anything about Irish Spotting, Piebald genes giving me a hard time over these boxers!!
I received this on August 16th 2009. This lady is from Maine. Read What she had to say about the tri color boxers:

Subject: Tri color gene and split face gene
Hi,
I found your website on next day pets. I am a boxer breeder as well and have been breeding for 7-8 years. Thou I have never myself personally run into the try color gene in my lines I am interested in any literature and knowledge you may have on this mutation. Is this color pattern linked to the seal/black coat color? I ask this because my friend breeds her black and white male. I would appreciate any information you can give me on this mutation gene so I can pass it along to her. I have wondered for the last 3 years if this gene did exist as I sold a puppy 3 yrs ago to a man who owned a 7 yr old AKC registered tri colored boxer. It blew my mind away. 5 years ago I bought a male brindle boxer who had a litter mate sister who was tri colored. The mother to the litter was white if that makes a difference?
I would also like more information on the split face gene if you have it because I have a litter of pups on the ground right now and one of them has a split face. I didn't expect this to happen as I bred a flashy mom to a classic male. Mom herself is a slight bit mis-marked but not so much so that I would have expect what I got. The male used had been bred to a real flashy female last year and out of 8 pups there was 2 flashy and 1 semi flashy and the rest were classics so I felt safe using him to counter act Breeze's flashy markings. I thought I was well versed into genetics but I have been thrown a curve ball here I guess LOL. I would really appreciate any knowledge you have to share about this gene.
Here is a link to my website to view Boomer my split face boy on my available puppies page.
Thank you so much,
Julie White | |
