Question
QUESTION: Hi I have a 3 yr old male husky and I was just wondering what sex of boxer would go best with him??

ANSWER: You are wanting a companion for your Husky? A Boxer companion, right?

A female is better with a male. Two males always have alpha issues.

I recommend a female, and have her spayed.

Answer
Spaying and female, and neutering a male, is fixing them so they cannot reproduce.

Boxers are very playful and stay puppy-like for a few years. They are a playful breed that most other breeds cannot keep up with. I always suggest other dogs the same size or larger. No small dogs.
