After reading the posts below, I should add that the rescue agency probably wants to make sure that you want the dog as a family pet and not as a fighting dog. Boxers are one of those breeds that people like to train to fight - although I don't know how they could, all the Boxers I have known thought they were lap dogs at 80 pounds. Hope you like dogs on your bed and sofa! :)
