Some Boxers can be found in white, though this is not an accepted AKC color.
Notable physical features are their brachycephalic skulls which are condensed (similar to the Boston Terrier), powerful jaws with an under bite, and their thick muscular chests.
German Shepherds
are a large breed that average 60-65 cms (24-26 in), and 30-40 kg (66-88 lb) as males. Females average 55-60 cms (22-24 in), and 22-32 kg (49-71 lb).
They can have either short or long haired coats (generally shedding a lot more than a Boxer), and come in a range of colors from blue to black, with short haired/plush coat black and tan being the standard.
GSDs have longer faces than Boxers, and their ears often stand erect compared to the natural often floppy ears of the Boxer.
German Shepherds are also powerful, quick and agile – just like the Boxer, which is mandatory as a working dog.
