Cathy, sorry to hear about your loss. My father got me my first boxer when i was 10 yo. He and i raised puppies together. He died when i was 13 and tinker bell helped me through that loss. Our last boxer "bengal" was 13 yo when he passed 3 years ago. We had to put him down. My daughter came up from wilmington and my son came from raleigh to goldsboro to see him off. All 4 of us left in tears. I still have trouble but our new boxer "buster" helps me get through. My wife did not want another dog, but after two attempted break ins in one week, buster was added to the family. There is no better burglar alarm than a boxer, and no better friend. When he looks up at me my heart melts.
Get another boxer as soon as possible. You cannot be too sad with a boxer puppy around.
God bless you
