1. Excuse me? You might want to rephrase that again!
2. WOW! Boxers are very intelligent, maybe your stupid! you obviously don't know much or anything about the boxer breed! I show boxers and they are very much intelligent and clever. Why would you even come on here and try to disrespect a loved breed such as the boxer! Get a life troll!
3. Say, WHATTTTT? They are the best, i have one! They are very clever and intelligent breeed! But dont worry, puppies, especially boxers, when they are young are very hyper, jumpy and not to smart. We got a really good trainer and it helped tremendously, i reccomend you do the same, but make sure its not some stupid trainer!! Good Luck! xo
4. Boxers are very intelligent. maybe you should start training him.
5. Well, from personal experience, I can tell you that Boxer puppies are definitely not stupid. They are actually really smart even though it doesn't seem like it at times. Maybe you just need to be a bit more patient and persistent with him because he's still young. Just give him some time to grow and he should be smarter even though I don't believe that any dogs are stupid to begin with.
6. You know, I would be willing to bet that you were pretty stupid when you were 9 weeks old. Your dog is a puppy, for Pete's sake!
7. most puppies arent the brighest crayons in the box. right now he just wants to play, poop, eat, and sleep. i have a beagle puppy, a very smart breed, and he doesnt seem too intelligent at the moment, but all puppies grow into dogs, and dogs are very smart. it might be super frustrating right now, but pretty soon he will grow a little and get a little more sense. also make sure you spend a lot of time training, because his manners will all be a direct result of your training. also, he probably isnt the leader type, he is a follower, leaders think for themselves more while followers do what they are told to do (after you train him of course). but sometimes the smart dogs, or the leaders, can be more difficult to train because they want to do their own thing. so really, be glad you have the dummy. sometimes you wanna give up on him huh? stick with it, theres nothing better than a full grown dog by your side, it is wirth all the stress and time they take as puppies.
