History of Rummer Run Boxers, continued:

Our Kennel name comes from the word Rummer which is a large drinking cup or glass - in short, a victory chalice from which to drink at a time of celebration.  We liked the alliteration of Rummer Run and our logo by Armando Miro combines the chalice and a head study of our first homebred champion - Ch Rummer Run's Rowdy II, one of our most dearly beloved dogs of all time.

If we were to offer any advice to a beginner, it would be to start out with the very best bitch you can find.  Look at her objectively.  Try not to become kennel blind.  Learn, read, observe.  Be very patient, and prepare to suffer some heart breaking as well as some exhilarating experiences along the way.  Do not try to make money.  If you do things totally ethically, you will refund money if a dog doesn't work out, you will work with people who may disappoint you, but always the best interests of your dogs must be served.  Only a few are great ones, many more may finish, but there will be others with health problems or who are not very attractive.  If you have been responsible for bringing a litter into the world, you are obligated to stand behind each puppy, and some will have problems.  If you choose to breed Boxers, and show them, you will become a custodian of the very human-oriented, loving, loyal, but at times challenging breed.  You are responsible for each puppy you bring into the world.

If you are unwilling or unable to take on this responsibility, please follow another road.  Boxers are a lifetime commitment.
