Meet the breeder

I'm Heather B., the breeder behind Goose River Boxers Co located in Caledonia, ND. We are a small, dedicated breeder committed to raising family-friendly Boxer puppies with great temperaments and strong health standards. Our pups are AKC registered and carefully bred with emphasis on strong bloodlines, sound temperaments, and dogs raised with intention.

Q. & A. with Heather

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My husband was raised breeding St Bernard puppies, but I helped him fall in love with the Boxer breed. We wanted to raise Boxer puppies with our family that had good health standards and great family-friendly temperaments.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our pups are raised in a country-like setting with chickens, other dogs, and lots of energetic kids--perfect for building confident, playful, family-ready Boxers.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Good level

  • Vet Wellness Exam

    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).

    From the time I inquired about the puppy to meeting up with them a short cold week later we are thrilled with our "Daisy"! Heather answered all our questions quickly and enjoyed working with her. Anyone looking for a lovable boxer puppy and would recommend reaching out to Heather. Carla (Iowa)

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
