Boxer Figurine | Mini Boxer | Boxer Replica - 4in. x 3.25in. - 1 Piece (sl10062)

This is a boxer figurine from Safari Ltd.(r). Originating in Germany, boxers are prized for their strong neck and powerful jaws. The first officially recognized Boxer was "Flocky", who was entered into, and subsequently won, a dog show in 1896. There is some confusion over where the name "Boxer" comes from. A popular theory holds that it refers to the breed's tendency to "box" with its front paws when fighting, but this is not actually something the dog frequently does. They are known to "box" with their heads occasionally, using the muzzle as a kind of club. This boxer replica is hand painted with fine detailing for a realistic look. This mini boxer measures 4in. x 3.25in. and is made out of hard plastic that is BPA/phthalate/lead free. This miniature boxer would make a fun toy for a child to play with, a collector's item, or a wonderful gift for a boxer lover. Sold as one piece per package. Recommends for ages 3+.
