Our family has long been fans of Boxers (the dog, not the fighter). Growing up our Grandmother had a beautiful Fawn Boxer named "Cindy Bow Wow." My sister has two boxers now and her male just took several firsts and a couple of seconds in a show up in Pennsylvania. His name is "Donovan" and he can be seen HERE. (Just click on "Donovan" from that page to see my sisters male Boxer). She also has a female named "Tessa." (PS: Doesn't the guy standing on the right look like the butler on the movie "Arthur"?)
 
And a handsome lad he is!


I'm not sure if many folks realize it, but car racing seems to attract people who like dogs (maybe it's one of the few places where people can bring dogs these days).
Only thing is to watch their ears for the loud noises (watch kid's ears too!).
Lime Rock banned dogs last year and I swear, it's hurt them financailly.

Here's Linda and with one of our racing friends and her boxer (at Watkins Glen...in garage).

Fine looking Boxer.. My younger son loves those....

I'm a lab guy... love chocolate labradors.. had two, but one passed away
a couple of months ago..
Dogs are just great to be around.
 
My childhood neighbor had a boxer, and when we moved, there was a boxer next door too. Great dogs. But I had either mutts or Coonhounds as my dogs for years. It has been probably a half-dozen years since we had to put the last dog to sleep, a mixed golden/shepherd.
 
when I first read the title quick, I thought it was about a Porsche.....
I love boxer dogs. they always seem to have great personalities.
Nial, that garage looks vaguely familiar.
 
Is that a 64 Vette in the left of the pic?

It's Chris Homer's vintage race Corvette: the thing is an absolute show-car but he also thrashes it properly! I don't know years on these cars, but it's not a Split-Window.

If you click on ~This Video~ and slide to 3:35, you'll see him pass me.

Here's another shot of the car in action:

I would rather people left their dogs ( & kids,if possible)home at
races,car shows,etc.I hate it when people expect you to appreciate their
"precious" pets like they do.
I dislike it when they (pets & children)tend to become the center of attention.Just because you think they're cute,doesn't mean the rest of us do.
This is exactly why I try not to take our Granddaughter to car related stuff.
She demands attention,but not everyone appeciates her.
