About Us
Thunder Bay Boxers was established in 2003. We are Ruth and Bernard Atkins. Our name is taken from a place where we had a vacation home and now live full time with our boxers. We have been fortunate to be able to live in such a beautiful place where our dogs have room to run in a fenced yard and thoroughly enjoy themselves in a forested setting.
We have had boxers since 1994. During that time we have always tried to do what is best for our dogs and, in turn, the boxer breed in general.
Our first boxer, Ginger, was born August 24, 1994. She was the sole reason that we chose the boxer as our breed. She was the ultimate pet dog and good example for the younger boxers. Unfortunately, we lost Ginger on October 24, 2006 at age 12 years, 2 months old. She has been deeply missed and will remain in our hearts forever.
We are members of MidWest Boxer Club where Ruth is the Puppy Referral Person and members of Great Lakes Boxer Club where Ruth is the hospitality Chairman, the Sunshine Committee Chairman and the Puppy Referral Committee Chairman.
