I had one of those as a kid.
Not quite that size but it was something of a handful.
yeah boxers look a bit like Danes
but smaller, they are still big dogs (they may have similar lineages)
my neighbor had a boxer when I was a kid
It wasn’t that big, though, and was more solidly built – stockier. It had stripes, like a tiger. Brindle, I guess.
He was a very nice dog. Big enough to eat small children, but never did, bratty as we were. :-)
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
yeah they tend to be nice
I had one up the street form me when I was a kid and it was an ex police dog. He was very friendly and only mixed it up with cats (always lost as far as I know)

his discussion of a trip to Thailand and what not makes him sound like a bit of a perv (when combined with his “machine” stuff)
It's that nothing about him is really authentic.

I’d like it to be UPS though so I can place a hold on all the stuff and I can just pick it up after work. The thought of over 1K of pc components sitting on my front step does not give me good thoughts.
