Who we are?

We have owned Boxers off and on for over 30 years. In 2016 we lost our beloved Gunner and while searching for a new Boxer we met two wonderful ladies, Tina Starr (Ivylane Boxers) and Mary Dooley (Vincenza Boxers). Meeting Tina and Mary was a blessing, Tina entrusted us with our current Boxers, RJ (our boy – bred by Mary and owned by Tina) and Piper (our girl – bred and owned by Tina). RJ and Piper soon became more than pets, they became part of our family. They are raised in our home and we provide them all the love and attention that they deserve. In 2018, under Tina’s and Mary’s tutelage, encouragement, and mentorship Olvera’s Boxers was created.
With Tina’s and Mary’s encouragement we began showing our Boxers in American Kennel Club events, focusing primarily on Conformation events and they are handled exclusively by Tina. Through the AKC shows, we have met wonderful people that are willing to share their many years of knowledge with us and that have supported us in our journey.
Since our inception, we decided not to breed for quantity, we breed for quality and healthy Boxers. Health, temperament, structure, and proper Boxer behaviors are our top priorities. Owning a Boxer is not just a privilege, but it is also great responsibility. As any other pets, they depend on us for food and shelter, but in return we will have a Boxer that for many years will be a loyal and wonderful companion to us and to our families.
