Introducing our kennel...
When I first saw those Boxer eyes, I was swept
off my feet. I was moved and tears were brought to my eyes. It was love at
first sight!
We were able to buy Crisje on one condition: we had to breed a litter with
her... .
On the sixth of May 1978 Crisje delivered 6 beautiful pups, 4 males and 2
females. It wasn't difficult to make a choice. I chose the lightly brindled
Cindy and my husband chose the darker Carla. These two dogs showed us the way
to exhibitions where a lot of Boxers were present in those days. The
competition was tough but we always managed to get to the first row and many
times first place.

Afterwards we bred a lot of beautiful Boxers
with titles of King and Queen of the Belgian Boxer Club, Prince and Princess of
the Belgian Boxer Club, Europasieger(in), Belgian, Luxemburg, Dutch, German,
Spanish and even Indian Champion. To name a few: Quirientje came in first 58
times among which the title of Europasiegerin. When we mated Ch. Regilio and
Quirientje, Belgian, Luxemburg, German, Dutch, International Champion and
Europasieger Toekaan Van de Boksdoorn was born and also Champion bitch Tiffany
Van de Boksdoorn.
Regilio fathered a number of champions like Tikki and Tamie Van de Boksdoorn.
Tikki is Belgian and Luxemburg Champion and fathered champions in Belgium,
France, Sweden, Germany, Poland and even Russia. Champion Velvet Van de
Boksdoorn (Belgian and Luxemburg Champion) also lives in our kennel. He's the
son of top bitch Tiara Van de Boksdoorn and Dominant. He stayed in Finland for
a year during which he was responsible for 1/3 of the Finnish stud services.
But unfortunately the Boxer changed a lot in a short period because Germany, country of origin introduced the cropping prohibition. The beautiful and "tight" appearance of the head is gone. I'm very sorry about this. The regal appearance has disappeared. Before the prohibition they all looked as if they were wearing a crown. It's a shame. The popularity of the breed has diminished in Germany because of these regulations, especially when the tail cropping prohibition was introduced.

It is no longer the same dog and I think this will become clear in a couple of years. A lot of our pups are exported abroad because of this, which shows that the people abroad cannot live with these regulations.
When the tail cropping prohibition will be introduced in our country in 2006 I will have difficulties dealing with this, because I wholeheartedly love the character of this optimist.
And once more: it's in his eyes... .
Thank you for visiting our site and enjoy !
