There was even a study that showed gazing into a dog’s eyes produces the maternal bonding/happiness hormone oxytocin. So science agrees: life is better with dogs. That’s worth celebrating!
So in honor of our wonderful dogs, here are 9 signs you’re a boxer mom, and proud of it:
1-You ask if it’s OK to bring your boxer to parties.
2-You sleep in a tiny corner of the bed while your boxer spreads out luxuriously.
3-You think it’s super romantic when instead of jewelry, your partner gives you custom artwork of your boxer or a “couture” poop bag purse.
4-You Facetime or Skype with your boxer when you’re apart.
5-You constantly share photos of your boxer online with hashtags like #TongueOutTuesday or #WoofWoofWednesday or #FurBabies or #KidsWithPaws or #LoveMyRescue or #DogLover.
6-You leave social gatherings early because your boxer has been home alone too long.
7- You spell out words like “W-A-L-K” in the presence of your boxer if it’s not actually time to go outside.
8- You make decisions based on how your boxer would react (See: “This apartment is nice, but where’s the closest dog park?” and “Our dog loves kids – let’s have a baby!”)
9-You whip out your phone to show photos of your boxer to people you’ve just met.
