Meet the breeder
I'm Michelle U., the breeder behind Rorschach Boxers located in Seward, NE. Our program is small and intended for ourselves first. We breed to create our next generation of Boxers to build on. We will occasionally have puppies available for pet and/or performance/working homes. My babies are extensively socialized before they go home. They are potty trained on grass pads, raised naturally, and live in our living room with our family. I use Puppy Culture and ENS as a guide for their social emotional development. My program is intentional with daily activities to build confidence and ensure that the best genetic potential is unlocked. Every baby goes home with a puppy pack, AKC prepaid registration and an AKC Reunite microchip that is prepaid lifetime registered.
Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
Preserving all aspects of the standard is important to me -temperament, health & functionality. I have been raising babies from my foster animals occasionally over the years while developing my current Boxers. I am choosy about which dogs I breed. I am a strong advocate for breeding to preserve and protect the breeds. My goal is to create the perfect Boxer, someone’s beloved Heart Dog.What makes your program special?
I put a lot of focus on breed appropriate temperament, epigenetics, and the social emotional development of my puppies. Our whole family pours love into them. They are raised as family members inside our home. I do extensive pedigree research into the background of every dog I breed. All of my dogs are sold on contract. I will take back any dog at any time & offer lifetime support for you.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include fawn, brindle, and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Litter and program updates
Michelle U.
Litter update on 02 Mar. •Pre labor has started! Most likely within 24 hours Megan will go into labor.
Phoenix and Megan's litter
Michelle U.
Litter update on 14 Feb. •…We have about 2 1/2 weeks left until baby time! Megan is in great shape and still bouncing around, active and happy as ever. This hopefully points to an uneventful labor and delivery for her. We are all praying for healthy babies and mom. I am starting to set up the nursery in my bedroom, and double checking that I have a full stock of newborn supplies on hand. If I need to order anything last minute, now is the time! I do have space for a FEMALE on my First Available waitlist. While I can’t predict gender ahead of time, I also wouldn’t want a waitlist of mostly boy homes if the litter ends of being mostly girls! For that reason, I would like a good balance of boy & girl homes ready. For whatever reason, this litter is overwhelmingly boy! Let’s add some girls to the list ❤️

Michelle U.
Litter update on 08 Feb. •…We are about 3 weeks away from babies! This is a time of rapid puppy growth. Mom Megan is just going to keep on getting rounder until it’s time to deliver. The oven is packed- so we are making our best attempts here to keep her from running around too much until delivery. Megan is a very fit and active lady- she bounces around right up until it’s time to deliver. But I do try to limit high impacts and rough play. Babies at this stage have all of their critical body systems in place now and are focusing on maturing & growing them. If you are interested in a FEMALE on my Notify waitlist and wish to get bumped up to First Available, please get ahold of me. I am heavy on boys and lower on girls for First Available.

Litter update on 10 Jan. •…Phoenix and Megan are on a pregnancy journey to bring in the new year of 2026. This litter is so very special to me. It will have my GrandPuppy in it! My oldest daughter is bringing home her first dog from this litter. We chose this pair for their family dog temperament specifically as a priority. There are a lot of Heart Dogs in these pedigrees. We are beyond excited!

Litter update on 14 July 2025 •Babies are three weeks old now and on their feet. They are growling, barking and even howling! Today they practiced stacking for the first time.

Litter update on 06 July 2025 •…Noise socialization is a vital part of puppy raising. Noises (and smells, sights, textures) need to be introduced when puppies are small so that they socialize to them and understand them as a part of their normal safe environment. From the whelping box, these guys hear a wide range of sounds from fireworks, storms, animals, machinery to tools. It’s important that your puppy grows into a confident Boxer. They will also smell, see and feel many novel things before they leave here. This is a video clip of the babies listening to some fireworks while they have dinner.

Michelle U.
Litter update on 05 July 2025 •…Babies are two weeks old! They’re starting to walk under all four feet now, eyes are open, and they are showing a lot more of their individual personalities. Out of nine babies, two boys are available. They are opposite temperaments! One of them (Fyodor) is very laid back and cuddly. The other guy (Strelka) is a strong willed, active baby who might be a perfect fit for someone who wants to do dog sports with their Boxer.

Michelle is such a delight ! She has brought us so much happiness and joy with our new pup! I could tell right away that our little Bowen was given top notch care and LOVE from day one. Michelle takes this very seriously and she really starts socializing the pups right away. Bowen is not afraid of different noises, people or normal surroundings. He has been a breeze to house train. He is 10 weeks old and sits, shakes, goes to his "spot" to sit, goes to the door when he has to potty, goes to bed at 10pm until 6am. He's an excellent traveler, walks on the leash and LOVES people and our old boxer. He's absolutely gorgeous and fits right into our family! I hope to get another pup from her in the next few years! Excellent experience and HIGHLY recommend!!!!
