Cinni-Bon Boxers is located in sunny San Diego County, California, in the quaint little town of Fallbrook.

My husband is no stranger to boxers, as his parents were boxer breeders who owned Shelly Rae Kennels in Killduff, Iowa. I was introduced to my first boxer in 1988. In an office conversation, I mentioned my husband’s love for boxers. Shortly after, a co-worker showed me an ad for a boxer. It was for a 1-year old boxer. We interviewed twice with the family and were “awarded” the privilege of owning the dog--Bogie. We tragically lost him shortly after. I swore off dogs-especially boxers. It was a painful experience for our family. In October 2001, on a trip to Cow Palace, I stopped to visit my brother, who had a litter of 4-week old boxer puppies. I should have never fallen for his trap. One look at those boxer puppies and I had to have one. Being the first to see them, I got first choice. I took many pictures of Kadie to bring home to the family, and of course, they too were smitten. Kadie will always be our favorite.

Now we have the boxer bug. Our goal as boxer breeders is to breed boxers that will produce quality litters, focusing on temperament, health, soundness and conforming to the breed standard. To ensure the healthiest possible litters, our boxers are holter tested and have complete physical exams prior to breeding. Our boxers are family members first, so litters will be well planned to ensure the health of our boxers. All efforts will be made to ensure our puppies are placed in caring, loving homes.

This year we’re expanding! Two boxers aren’t enough. With much coaxing and encouragement from Judy and BJ, we are planning to acquire two boxer show prospect puppies.

We want to personally thank Robbyn & Jeramy Cook of Fireside Boxers for all the help and knowledge they have given me from the start, Judy Brissey of Jubri Boxers for her direction, and Bette Jo Nunn (B.J.) of Hijinx Boxers and Jennifer Tellier of Telstar Boxers who have offered to be our mentors. Their faith and friendship mean the world to me. We are looking forward to the next phase in the boxer world.
