"Sterling", dad
Boxer
About "Sterling"
Sterling is a 100 percent European Boxer. His Sire was imported from Serbia. He loves to play ball and is extremely calm. I adore this big boy. He is so sweet and not hyper. His heavy bone and deep chest attribute to his Euro lineage. We have accumulated many Champion Titles in several different organizations. He is DM and ARVC Clear. He is rated Good with OFA on hips and passed his thyroid and Echo-cardiogram test as well. A holter results was done at age two in 2022 with perfect results, which was 0 0 0. Another was done in 2025, and it had not changed. The holter result was still 0 0 0. God is good!
Brandye, mom
Boxer
About Brandye
Brandye is a all American Girl. She is very sweet, smart, and semi calm. She loves to snuggle and just be a couch potato. The exception to this rule is when it is time to go on our daily 4-wheeler ride. Boy doses, she comes alive. Brandye has several accomplishments. I am so proud of the quality of puppies her and Sterling produced. The stack picture above was when she was younger at an IABCA dog show. She is ARVC Clear and a DM Carrier. She passed her Holter with almost perfect zeros. She is rated OFA good on Hips and passed her thyroid screening as well. Brandye was retired in January 2026. She had two beautiful litters of puppies. She is now a couch potato 🥔 and enjoys the same activities but has gained a few pounds🤣🤣

+5I lost my 13 year old boxer Rosie on December 2 which devastated me. I started looking to see what was out there and I came across Good Dog. I saw Doddie’s puppies and fell in love. I contacted her and she got back to me almost immediately. She was so personable and told me everything that she tests for in the parents, which I loved. Any time I had a question she responded so quickly which really made me feel at ease. I decided on Miles and we set up a day to meet. She even met me almost half way so I didn’t have to drive for so long. I have had Miles for 3 weeks and I couldn’t be happier. He has helped to heal my heart from losing Rosie. I have contacted her a few times with questions and she responds to me very quickly. I would recommend her to anyone that wants a boxer puppy. He is healthy and happy and I couldn’t be anymore pleased with the whole process.

+6Doddie, is the most thoughtful and caring person. We were a little apprehensive had never used this app before, but she made the process so easy and we met in person and she was just as kind in person as she was by text. We picked up Jake and she had also brought the father with her so that we could meet him as well. Jake's father was so well behaved we knew we had made a great decision. You could tell that she was compassionate and caring about her boxers, didn't just breed to make money, she did it because she loves her dogs. Jake is a blessing he is the best puppy, so yes we thank you for making the process so incredibly easy.
