  • This is Rex. He is a full blooded Boxer. Rex loves to swim completely underwater and dive into the pool. Rex has been on TV many times, the News, Animal planet, Yahoo news all over the internet and in Seth Casteel's book titled Underwater Dogs. Rex is the only boxer in this book. Rex has been doing this for years. Were we live in Arizona in the summers it often hits 120 out. Rex found a great way to stay cool on our hot summer days! Rex loves to play and swim with kids and show off. Its a great way for him to get in his exercise with out over heating. If you LOVE his video or have any question feel free to leave a comment.

    I thought I would clear a few things up. Rex is a Boxer. I refused to crop his tail and ears. Our pool is a salt water pool. No harsh chemicals here. Where we live in Mohave Arizona, in the summers hit the 120's. Rex found a way to stay cool in the summers! I do not force Rex to swim/dive/. Rex was not trained to do this. He just jumped in the pool one day and swam to the bottom. There is no keeping Rex out of the pool! It is great exercise for him. Thank you all for your views comments!

      I guess I woiuld only recommend that you keep an eye on him as he gets older. I hope that he does not attempt more than he is capable of.

      We live in Florida and our Boxer Pearl loves the pond. She swims in it at least 2 times a day. She has done so since we got her at 12 weeks old. My husband thought she would drown when she first got into the pond but she swam the entire length. It is a 1/3 acre pond. Yes she does dive down looking for turtles. And NO we do NOT have gators. We make sure of that. She is now 2 years old and is a very silly girl. She is Albino with 1 dark and one light eye.

      @genesiskravitz8621 7 лет назад +50

      Carat Cranker the tail acts as a rudder which makes it easier to steer underwater. A great advantage since they don't have as much range of motion in their legs. Golden retrievers have excellent steering tails which is partly why they're make excellent swimmers.

    Thank you for your concern for Rex. How ever this is a Salt Water pool. Kind of like swimming in the ocean. He is not trained or made to do this. He does it on his own, always has. In fact you cant keep him out of the pool. He truly enjoys this. It makes him happy. Rex sees a vet on a regular basis. He has never had an ear infection or any irritation in his the ear ever. I have been told by my vet that the salt water is just fine for his ear. They are squeeky clean :) Thanks for your views

    That is amazing. I've had boxers my whole life and never seen one dive like that.

    most boxers aren't good swimmers/and or afraid of the water,the fact that this one can fetch underwater is simply amazing
