I'm Mary H., the breeder behind Mary Hickey's Boxers located in Massachusetts. We care deeply about the Boxer breed and we aim to help ensure the health and future of these wonderful dogs. Our goal is to produce puppies that are capable of participating in sports and conformation, but that are also happy to be companionable, entertaining house dogs that enjoy quieter moments as well. We want our pups to be adaptable and thrive with their families wherever they are.
