1. Yup our old family boxer snores when she sleeps and at times has unbearable gas. She can clear a room! Congrats on your new boxer! They are excellent dogs that truely love pleasing their owners and their so smart! Good luck.
2. Yes!
3. boxers and mastiffs are super loud snorers
4. I dont know if they are known for snoring but I know two people that have boxers and they both snor. Its so funny to listne to them. :)
5. How cool is a snoring doggie? Pretty cool. Yes, Boxers and most of the short nosed dogs snore. Their noses are short and they cannot cool or heat the air going in so it's best to keep them in the cool for the summer because they can have some heat related problems. Just love your Boxer and know that it is perfectly normal for them to snore!!
6. ive heard that boxers and any dogs that have a "smushed" face snores and breaths loud because they have such a small nose
7. ive had several rottweilers and they snore. ive also been around other breeds, everything from chows to mastiffs, and they do too. my guess is that this is just something that larger dogs do. wait till he gets larger has his flatulence clears the room...
8. YES!! I think most dogs snore. Dogs with short/no muzzle have breathing issues du to the nasal passages are too short compared to other dogs. Pug, Boxers, Frenchies, Botons , Bulldogs etc. BTW I have a cat that snores ... but it is a light snore, funniest thing
9. Yes! I am blessed with a boxer and a husband who both snore, lucky me.
