You're interested in a Boxer puppy. You have come to the right place. All my puppies are raised in my home with attention to every detail of their well being.

Do you have unanswered questions? Please read the FAQ page first.

There is a lifetime of information on this site, put together with you in mind. I've been in the Boxer breed over 50 years, see History page for highlights, and offer that experience and knowledge to my Encore family, and anyone who asks for mentorship.

Time does not allow me to respond to incomplete inquiries. If you wish to receive a reply, I MUST first receive your answers to the Puppy Questionnaires. I cannot effectively respond until I review the information you share.

Your information helps me to ascertain if an Encore Boxer will be a good fit for your home. My Boxers are my life. Placing them in the best possible homes is something I do not take lightly.

If you send a completed inquiry and I do not respond within a week, please resend. The original may have gotten lost, or it may have gotten by me. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

With over 100 AKC champions bred at Encore, only puppies that rise to the highest level in all areas are placed in show and/or performance homes. Almost every litter has pet puppies available. All puppies are bred, raised, and cared for with the same level of dedication. If you are interested in purchasing an Encore puppy, pet or show, please read the documents linked above and include the information requested in your email.

Determinations as to whether a puppy is available for show or pet are NOT made until the puppies are a minimum of 8 weeks of age.

In the interest of assisting you in your search for that special puppy, it is recommended that you inquire about the health testing of the sire and dam of any puppy you might purchase. This health testing should include heart clearances for the sire and dam for Sub Aortic Stenosis and a 24 hour Holter with an acceptable reading.
