Introducing Tyson, a Brindle Boxer

Tyson is a handsome Brindle Boxer belonging to Gordie and Karen and their young son, Elijah. For those of you unfamiliar with the breed, you may be interested in the following informaiton excerpted from Boxer-Dogs-Guide.com.

Brindle boxers are one of the most common types of boxers. Within the boxer breed, there are three accepted colours – brindle, fawn and white. 

Brindle Boxers are not as well known as their fawn counterparts but are an extremely interesting variation of the breed purely and simply because of the colour of the coat and the two variations of the colour that exist.

Brindle Boxers are essentially fawn Boxers with black stripes on their coats. In order to be classed as a brindle, the individual Boxer has to have clearly defined stripes on the fur. If several stripes are visible then the dog in question would fit within the breed standard. The stripes can be anywhere on the body but they more often than not cover at least the back and the hips.
