(12/7/2009 - 1/14/2020, hemangiosarcoma)

Aka "Truck-man", "Monster-Truck" "Goober-Dog", etc..  Trucker represents our future, our next step in boxers where we put more emphasis on working sport and temperament, along with of structure and health.   After a few years of research, we decided that in order for us to continue working towards our "ideal, dream boxer" we needed to incorporate some of what the world has to offer.  Trucker comes to us from our good friends Colleen and Bill Gable of Lock n Load Boxers in Southern California.  Though he's an American-bred boy, Trucker's parents are German imports from strong working lines (von Felix) and conformation champions (including a long line of German Sieger winners and Atibox winners), proof that beauty and brains can co-exist. So far, he is living up to his pedigree's potential - solid, balanced temperament, quick and eager learner who is willing, and loves to work.  He also has many conformation traits we were looking for, an inky black mask, beautiful rise of skull, a wonderful front-assembly, with an equally balanced rear, bone and substance while still retaining a clean silhouette. He is a very special addition to our home, and he's been more than we could have hoped for.  To us, he is the epitome of what the boxer breed standard calls for: confident, medium-sized, all-around working dog, who is regal, protective, and goofy.  He is patient with our young kids, puppies, and runs just fine with other dogs.  

In January of 2020, we suddenly were forced to say our final good byes to the best boy ever.  We lost Trucker to a fast agressive cancer (hemangiosarcoma), and needless to say, all heartbroken.  We were so lucky to share our home with him. He left a giant hole in our hearts, and we miss him daily.
