Meet the breeder
I'm Payton B., the breeder behind Bridlewood Boxers located in Louisville, KY. Our dogs are fully health tested and titled in conformation and sports. They are extremely versatile and are just as happy being active as they are laying around the house! We raise all of our dogs with love in our home. We have high expectations for our puppies and make sure to place each one in an enriching and loving home that will match their temperament and personality!
Q. & A. with Payton
Why did you start breeding?
As a groomer, I have met many different breeds. Every time I met a Boxer, they stole my heart. In 2017, I brought my first Boxer, Floyd, home and I was hooked. A little over a year later, Easton joined our family and I knew that Boxers are my lifelong loves. It has been an absolute joy of a journey, and I am so happy to be able to share these wonderful dogs with other loving families and individuals.What makes your program special?
Type and health are my first priority. I want people to have puppies that live long, healthy, happy lives. I fully health test each of my dogs and they are all titled in conformation and sports. We also focus on structure because that's what makes a Boxer a Boxer! I adore this breed and want to preserve the breed standards while giving each of my dogs and puppies full, happy lives. I am very dedicated to what I do and what I aim to achieve as a breeder. I work with passion, heart, and integrity, and I truly want what's best for my dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent health testing
Excellent level
Bridlewood Boxers reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Boxers.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Thyroid (Autoimmune Thyroiditis, registered with OFA)
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC)
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
