    That's a tricky one! I'm going to say purebred... it's possible there's SOMETHING in there.. and if that's the case, he's got 95% of the Boxer in him.

    He is very handsome.. good luck!!

    I really don't consider any dog purebred unless the dog has his/her papers. That is the only way to prove if a dog is indeed purebred. That being said, I can't tell if he's full Boxer or not, I don't know alot about the Boxer breed.

    I hope you adopt him, he sure is a cutie!

    The ears are throwing me off, but he doesn't look "tall" like a Boxer should. Then again it could be the odd angle the picture was taken at, but his legs seem shorter than a Boxer's should.

    Pedigree shouldn't matter though

    Thats what I was thinking. The angle of the picture is making it really hard to tell!!

    He is adorable though, good luck!! I can't wait to see more Tucker pics

    It's so hard to tell with that angle and the lighting. He looks very mastiffy.
    I've been BOO'd!

    He's not purbred IMO. Coloring is too buff, not fawn, no defined lines of white, boxers have very defined lines, and the throat is too fleshy. The mask isn't covering his face the way it should and his hair coat is too thick and furry in places. Boxer mix, perhaps boxer parent combined with boxer mix parent. Very close but not pure. Looks sweet though.

    Thanks Jess for the great sig of my kids!

    When I look again, it looks like he has a darker stripe down his spine. At FIRST glance I thought it was a hint of Rhodesian Ridgeback, but when I enlarged the picture it just looks like a dark stripe
