We researched the POXER HYBRID and found a lot of positive write ups. here is a summary.

The Box-a-pug, also known as the Poxer, is the interesting and unique result of crossing a purebred  pug  with a purebred  boxer . Bright and full of personality, the Boxer-Pug has the guarding instincts of the Boxer with the classic quirkiness of the Pug. Despite some potential health problems, the Boxer-Pug mix can live a relatively healthier life than its purebred parents. If you’re looking for a fun hybrid that will also protect the homestead, the Box-a-pug will not disappoint.

Temperament & Intelligence of the Box-a-Pug

It’s always tough to know what kind of temperament to expect with a hybrid since each puppy within the same litter can vary wildly in personality, temperament, and many other factors. One way to prepare is to look at the temperaments of both the Boxer and the Pug to get a better idea about the possible personality traits your Box-a-Pug may possess.

Known as the class clowns of the purebred dog world, Boxers are energetic and athletic dogs that enjoy living life to the fullest. Though they may be silly and goofy, Boxers are quite smart and are great with obedience. They’re gentle enough to be family dogs, but they also have fierce loyalty and will protect their household when they feel the need. They may have a serious look, but they’re highly affectionate and don’t do well left alone for long periods of time.

Pugs are inquisitive dogs that enjoy spending time with their favorite person. They’re great with new people and strangers with early socialization. They’re lovable and can be incredibly affectionate, but they have a serious stubborn streak that can make training a challenge. Although their distinctive bossiness can be a handful, their caring and loving nature are what makes them one of the most popular breeds to date.
