Phoenix was the first Boxer Love of our lives. In fact, she may always hold that position because she was one of those "Once In a Lifetime" dogs. No formal training classes for this girl. She just strutted her stuff because she knew what she was born to do -- be a showdog and be our Best Friend. And that she was. We laughed constantly at her antics and snuggled on a regular basis. She was determined to be the center of attention whether in or out of the ring and she almost always succeeded. Life was a Joy to her and she was a Joy for us to have known. What a great way to start out in Boxers!
