Meet the breeder
I'm Michelle U., the breeder behind Rorschach Boxers located in Seward, NE. We breed AKC European line Boxers with high trainability and working drives. 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. 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 breed standard is important to me -particularly 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 much consideration and planning into my program. I am breeding for both working drive/trainability & classic Boxer family dog temperament. My dogs are from European lines. They are genetically and structurally health tested and I only choose studs with these health clearances and with working/conformation titles. All of my dogs are sold on contract. I will take back any dog at any time.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 14 July •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 •…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.

Litter update on 05 July •…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.

Litter update on 18 June •…We are in the final week! Babies can be seen and felt moving around ❤️ Babies can be here ‘on time’ anywhere from June 21st-June 27th. Just like humans, the due date isn’t always exact but it’s pretty close!

Michelle U.
Litter update on 09 June •…Megan has her own private suite at this point and she’s loving it! This is where she will birth and raise her babies for the first few weeks of their lives. Making this whelping box her own private peaceful happy place has been priority so that she feels totally comfortable with her babies here. All of her supplies (and me!) will be within arms reach for her. At this point we have about 2 weeks left in her pregnancy.

Litter update on 02 June •Megan is showing a lot more! She’s always been nice and slim, so this is definitely her looking ‘massive’ 🤣 She’s gonna get much bigger!

Litter update on 29 May •…It’s been very busy here preparing the puppy pen and the whelping box! The puppy pen (shown) is for when babies graduate from their nursery and are weaned. They will sleep and play in here, as well as start to learn the concepts of potty training! This pen will have separate areas for each of these things. It isn’t *nearly* done, but this is the floor and structure! We are also working on an outdoor setup that includes play yards and activities to introduce them to lots of new surfaces and challenges.

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!!!!
