Q. & A. with Whitney

Why did you start breeding?
My husband cut me off from making babies...So the next best thing would be making Boxer puppies. So here I am! Actually, lots of prayer got me here. I was undecided on what I wanted to do once both my boys were in school. I knew that I didn't want to go back into the workforce doing something my heart wasn't into. God placed the idea of raising Boxers on my heart and I haven't looked back!
What makes your program special?

WE APTITUDE TEST OUR PUPPIES TO HELP CHOOSE WHICH PUPPY IS THE BEST FIT FOR YOU. ALL PUPPIES COME WITH A HEALTH GUARANTEE. REFERRAL PROGRAM...FOR EVERY FAMILY YOU REFER TO US, WHO BUYS A PUPPY, WE WILL SEND YOU $100
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

Parent health testing

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Grand Lake 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.
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.
DNA Disease Panel, 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).
