"Boxers are originally a German breed and are cousins to almost all types of Bulldogs. Their distant ancestors are believed to have come from fighting dogs bred in Tibet.  Boxers were initially bred to be working, hunting and guard dogs. The Boxers\u2019 predecessors include the Bullenbeisser mastiff (\u201Cbull-biter\u201D), a stocky German breed used to chase, catch and hold fierce wild game, including boar, bear and bison. Its short, broad muzzle distinguished the Bullenbeisser from all other breeds of its time and made it particularly well-suited to the job it was bred to do.  After 1815, Germany\u2019s grand hunting estates were largely broken up, and hunting began to decline in popularity among the gentry. The last recorded boar hunt reportedly was held in 1865 at Kurhesser Courts; afterwards, most hunting dogs were sold."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
