Instructions
Give your boxer a quick brush every day with a natural bristle brush to keep shedding to a minimum.
Check ears every one or two weeks for dirt, wax buildup and mites. When needed, clean ears with a cotton pad moistened with a few drops of ear cleansing solution.
Trim hairs around your boxer's ears using blunt-nosed scissors every two months or when needed.
Use blending shears to trim stray hair growing into different colored patches every month or two.
Bathe only as needed. Boxers typically clean themselves like cats, so all you have to do is shampoo him when he's dirty, using a rubber brush to loosen shedding hair.
Dry your boxer with a blow dryer, using your hand or a hard rubber brush to remove excess hair.
Apply a coat whitener to any of your pet's discolored white markings. A boxer's oily coat has the tendency to retain dirt.
