Tina S.

Breeder of Boxers and Boston Terriers

Meet the breeder

I'm Tina S., the breeder behind Ivylane Boxers & Boston Terriers located in Gonzales, LA. Here at Ivylane our goal is to breed quality boxers that meet the Boxer Standard of the American Kennel Club and American Boxer Club. We focus on health, temperament, type, and beauty. We follow the recommended health screening guidelines for the Boxers in our breeding program set forth by the American Boxer Clubs Health & Research Committee.

Q. & A. with Tina

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I had wonderful mentors who taught me well about all aspects of purebred dogs and preserving the standard.

  • What makes your program special?

    My dogs are not bred just to produce puppies. My dogs are carefully selected to produce healthy companions that not only excel in conformation events and performance events. Well rounded dogs make the best companions!

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Boxer puppies include fawn and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    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.

  • Patellar Luxation

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • Congenital Deafness (BAER, 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.

  • Animal Genetics Panel, GenSol Diagnostics DNA Testing, Hereditary (Juvenile) Cataracts (HC; JC)

    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).
