Brighton Beach has hosted the fifth annual Boxer March with hundreds of the beautiful dogs gracing the shoreline

With their endless energy and bouncy nature, a beautiful southern suburbs beach has played host to hundreds of Boxer dogs marching together.

The beautiful shoreline of Brighton Beach was filled with bouncing Boxer dog energy as hundreds of the slobbery goofballs gathered in unison for some early morning fun.

On Sunday, April 28 the fifth annual Boxer March, usually held in March took place at 9am with the walk beginning at Angus Neill Reserve on The Esplanade.

The massive group of Boxer dogs walked to Brighton Jetty then returned to their starting point for refreshments and a morning snack.

Organiser of the Boxer March and Rampid Boxer breeder, Paul Cook said the idea of bringing the SA Boxer community together was due to the state not having a Boxer club or association.

“As breeders we’re basically the flag bearers of the breed here in South Australia,” Mr Cook said.

“We’re one of the most prolific breeders here in SA, so what we want to do is bring the Boxer community together and give back a little bit, while having everyone bond and share what we love.

“The spirit and vibe here is absolutely amazing.”

With the once used as hunting dogs, the lover and not fighter breed has Paul’s love as he feels there’s no other breed like the Boxer and “what’s not to love” about them.

“We really want to preserve the breed,” Paul said.

“The walk brings a lot of heads together and protects the breed moving forward. We want to protect their health, temperament, soundness and all the characteristics that we love about them, still there in 10-20 years time and generations to come.

Kristen Cook, also of Rampid Boxers, said she adores the breed and loves being surrounded by them each and every day.

“They’re very loyal,” she said.

“They have clown-like behaviour, but they also have a calm sense of nature. They can go nuts, but they’re just wonderful.”

For any Boxer lover wanting to get their beloved beauty out and among the bounding energy, there will be more events in the future.

“The walk is supposed to be on the first Saturday or Sunday of March, but with life taking over, it got pushed out this year,” Paul said.

“People can go to the Facebook page, Boxers Adelaide, we don’t care who bred your dog, where it came from, if you have a boxer and you love them, you’re welcome to take part.”
