Boxer dogs used to all be docked and cropped — they had their ears and tails cut. Over the years, people realized just how inhumane the practice really was.The practice had been stopped a while back so you’re not going to see anyone do that today, but that period of docking and cropping did produce a line of naturally bobtailed Boxers that are still around today.

#11 Black or White? or Brown?
