The Boxer is a beloved breed in the US and ranks 14th in popularity according to the American Kennel Club. Boxers are medium-sized dogs known for their vibrant personalities.
Originally bred as working dogs, Boxers were “butcher’s helpers,” safeguarding slaughterhouses and controlling cattle. Despite their tough reputation, they are affectionate pets. Finding a name that reflects both these traits can be challenging!
Here, we’ve curated a list of our favorite Boxer dog names to help you choose the perfect name for your new furry friend!
How to Name a Boxer
The most crucial aspect of selecting a name is that you like it. Your dog’s main concern is receiving plenty of love and attention from you!
Naming your dog might be more challenging than anticipated. Sometimes, finding a single name can feel overwhelming, while other times, you may struggle to pick just one favorite due to loving several options! If other household members are involved, considering their input is important, but reaching a unanimous decision may also be tough.
There’s no rush in naming your dog. You can test out a few names over a couple of days to see which one suits your dog best. Your dog won’t mind as they won’t learn their name in just a day or two.
You can even start training without a name. Use a command like “attention” followed by instructions instead of their name.
