Meet the breeder
I'm Shelly B., the breeder behind Brinkhaven Boxers located in Wellington, OH. Our goal is to provide families with healthy, well socialized companions. Our puppies are handled daily from day one. Our dogs live in our home, have a spot on the couch, and have a place in our hearts forever!
Q. & A. with Shelly
Why did you start breeding?
I previously worked in the veterinary field for 5 years. I have always enjoyed working with animals. I decided to start raising boxers as a way to provide families with boxers that are raised responsibly. Our parents are all health tested and our puppies are well cared for, socialized and loved. It is important for us to find the perfect fit for our puppies, as they must be treated like the royalty that they are!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include fawn and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Boxer
About Mila
Mila is our calm, laid back girl! She has always been that way since we brought her home at 8 weeks old. I think of her as our gentle girl, as has always been so tolerant of our 5 year daughter from day one. Mila is not an overly affectionate boxer, but she shows her love by brining you her favorite toy while her butt wiggles continuously. Please note, that boxers personalities vary greatly! We are raising Mila's pup from her previous litter and she is extremely outgoing, loves to give kisses, and is high energy. We handle our puppies daily to ensure the best early socialization possible.

They were amazing throughout the whole process, and my boy is probably one of the happiest and adjusted puppies ever! He is an amazing dog, and Shelly and Ben were great to work with!
