Boxer
The Boxer is one of Britain's most popular breeds of dog, and here at last is a book to do it justice. The Best of Breed series is a ground-breaking new range of books designed for pet owners and written by British experts. In a market dominated by American imports, these all-British breed books are a must-have for the discerning dog owner. The Boxer is edited by breed specialist Viv Matthews, with chapters provided by a hand-picked team of contributors. The outstanding text offers readers an unrivalled depth of knowledge about character and behaviour, puppy care, training and socialisation, with a special chapter on Boxer health care written by a leading British vet.
The Boxer
The Boxer was developed in Germany as a medium-sized security dog. The breed combines the blood of a mastiff-type breed that was used for hunting, herding and protection with that of the Bulldog. The result is a smooth-coated, agile dog measuring up to 25 inches at the shoulder. Color may be shades of fawn or brindle with white markings, which must not exceed one-third of the ground color to meet the official breed standard. The breed was introduced to America after World War I, when it was brought home by returning servicemen. Since then, the Boxer's popularity has grown enormously. The breed is valued as a spirited pet and guardian of home and family. Its sleek coat is easily maintained; a weekly rubdown with a bristle brush keeps it clean. Strong and exuberant, this breed appreciates a couple of daily runs outdoors. As long as it gets plenty of exercise, the Boxer can adapt to most living quarters.
Perquimans County, North Carolina
Nestled amidst rivers and streams in northeastern North Carolina, Perquimans County is at the heart of the historic Albemarle region. Dating to 1668, it was an important colonial settlement and the site of North Carolina's first organized religious service, a Quaker meeting. Yeopim Indians named the area Perquimans, which means "land of beautiful women." Water has always defined the region's way of life. Hertford, the county seat, is as relaxing and inviting as the winding Perquimans River that flows through it. Residents and visitors enjoy the breathtaking views and southern charm of this magical place.
