White Boxer

At the origins we were white

Translated from the Italian original.

For more than a hundred years the Bk of Monaco (1896) was established. It was wanted to recognize dogs as Razza and have a wide version of the boxer panorama. As a logical consequence there was a register (book of origin). At the beginning there was a bit of confusion, often the older animals had higher numbers of freshmen than the young. The first number was assigned to Mühlbauers Flocki, a spotted. His father "Tom" was a white stallion of bulldog breed. He was a prestigious stallion and given that he wanted to select a prestigious and noble breed, he was used several times in the breeding. Anotherringer of our Boxer was "Meta von der Passage" ZB.Nr.30. A white bitch with tiger machies in the head. Also in his case, the grandfather was Tom. Meta had many prestigious puppies for the history of the Boxer breeding. A very important role also had him "Mirzl" ZB.Nr.44, a cow Falva.

At the beginning of the new century the breed standart (1905) was written. The anatomical characteristics of the muscles, behaviour and character were fixed, the whole appearance of the ideal boxer. And of course also the color. Black did not often appear, for this reason were allowed the dark red- deer, the yellow-bread (halloween) and the tiger. We wanted to use the boxer as a working dog (usability) and the white did not suit much for this purpose, so white and black were declared not allowed colors.

Forgotten that the strippers were white, that the most important fatrice was white and that said many important subjects for the selection of the breed. The alleged diseases that are spoken of today, could not be ascertained because whites were always killed. There had to be some justification for the killing of healthy but white puppies.

That deafness and skin diseases appear in albinos is not denied. Albinos tend to be sickly subjects. They lack any pigmentation, they can be recognized by the pink truffle and red eyes. The white boxer however is not an albino, they have only a lack of pigmentation. He has black truffle, dark eyes and often of the stains 31ulve or tiger on the mantle or on the skin. They do not have much with wet hair. Many years of commitment to eliminate white from the race, but with very little success!

Expert breeders confirm, contrary to what is said, that white boxers often have typical heads and possessing bones. Today it is allowed to grow white boxers, not for tolerance and good intentions but because the law prohibits the killing of perfectly healthy animals. They continue to be seen as defects and shame of selection.

The number of white cubs killed illegally is still very high, it is not acceptable for a stallion selected neither for a fattrice, coming from a litter with whites. But you can not eliminate the white from the selection. Generously now you give him the documents (pedigree), but are still excluded from the reproduction and exhibitions. Documents with so much big stamp:

"Prohibition of reproduction and exposure"

They are only a third tone, why aren't they treated like it?

Equal rights for all!

Six thousand nine boxers are white.

The opposite facts are relatively weak.

Many defects are also found in color boxers, because only in white boxers are these seen as defects caused by their color?

Prejudice!
