- FAB-First Available Boxer:
- (1) describes the first Boxer a Boxerholic sees while away
from his or her Boxer(s). Commonly used by said human to get
a Boxer fix to tide him/her over until he/she returns home to
his/her Boxer(s). (2) what some people waiting to adopt a rescue
boxer are waiting for.
- Fancier:
- Degree to which some gentlemen handlers dress more than others.
- Farrah-Fawcett look:
- when the Boxer flews and (natural) ears fly back in the breeze
to give an attractive windswept look! Particularly fetching when
slobber is dripping off the Boxer's face at the same time.
- Fawn; Yellow:
- two colors that average out to a light brown; brown, ranging
from light tan to mahogany.
- Fawn coat sequence:
- (from light to dark) Light fawn->fawn->stag or mahogany
- Feathering:
- What winners are accused of doing to judges' nests.
- F.E.F.:
- frantic eye fluttering. The boxer equivalent of R.E.M. (rapid
eye movement) sleep.
- Find It! game:
- put the dog on a sit stay. Sort of hide the snack. At the
beginning be pretty obvious about it. Go back to the dog and
say Find It! You always want the dog to find the snack. Sometimes
you may have to walk towards where it is, if the dog seems confused.
Watch those boxer mushes hit the ground.
- Flashy:
- a boxer with a significant amount of white markings on their
legs, face, and/or collar. Dogs are disqualified (in shows) if
they are more than 1/3 white and white cannot appear on the torso
proper. There are gradations between "plain," "semi-flashy"
and "very flashy," and the definitions of each vary
according to the individual making the description.
- Flat out like a lizard drinking:
- comes from the fact that lizards in Australia mainly live
in the very arid desert regions, and when they find water, they
drink like there is no tomorrow (because if you are searching
for water there might not be!!). To drink they are stretched
flat out and go 100 to 1 at the water.
- F.L.E.A.:
- Floppy Ears Anonymous Club.
- Flew fluffle; Woofles:
- when they kind of purse their lips in and out while sticking
their heads into the air, hoping to get a sniff of something
(or a BETTER sniff of something!); not hestitating to put food
on you after eating; flews (usually-moist, always soft and velvety,
and often festooned with dinner-debris) against pant legs, skirts,
suits and tee shirts. Usually the degree of festooning is in
direct proportion to the cleanliness or cost of the garment at
the receiving end.
- Flew flotsam:
- the bits and pieces of food, etc., that end up floating in
the water bowl when a boxer takes a drink after eating.
- Flewforter:
- a comforter that has been boxerranged. (See "Boxerrangement");
also can refer to the boxer itself, when it has snuggled so that
its flews cover and warm a portion of human anatomy.
- Flews:
- the extra skin (jowls) that hang off the side of the muzzle,
and they kind of, well... fluffle!
- Fletter:
- an exhale which flutters the flews
- Flug:
- the tasty blend of flew-borne material which could pass the
NASA trials for "space age lubricant". Hence, we often
speak of getting "...fluffled with Mug's flew flug..".
[See Mooshie juice, goobers]
- Flying nun ears:
- description of uncropped boxer ears.
- French Kiss:
- what you get when you laugh a bit too hard around a licking
Boxer. (see also Deep Throat)
- Four legged hoofing dance:
- tearing up grass after relieving itself; a way of marking
territory by leaving their scent behind.
- Frog dog; Flying frog, sky-diver:
- the position assumed when a boxer is lying down and the legs
are pointed away from the body; sliding the front of the body
off the couch, leaving the hind legs in the flying frog. Support
the front part of the body with the legs on the floor and, if
possible, rest the head on the coffee table to look extra cute.
- Front:
- Part of the dog often stacked toward the outside of the ring.
- Full-body lean:
- it happens when the said Boxer is not satisfied with the
amount of petting he/she had just received. In our case, it's
a method of communication, "Excuse me, I don't think you're
finished, you haven't forgotten me have you?"
- Full-body nudge:
- which is an added little reminder which usually occurs in
the sitting position.
- Full-butt lean:
- The law of mass tonage; when a boxer comes up on the couch
and stands over you while you're watching TV. Front feet on one
side and back feet on the other. Then when they're ready, they
just throw their backside onto you - somewhere between your chest
and lap. They may eventually end up sitting in your lap or just
leaning their butt on you. Its as if they're too lazy to stand
up straight.
- Full-body blow dry:
- When you are blow-drying your hair, they push open the bathroom
door (little buggers scare the *lights* out of you half the time)
come over and turn their butts to you as if to say "OK mom
(or Dad), my turn". They'll wait there until you give them
a few minutes under the dryer. And you have to hit all areas
- back, belly, chest, butt, behind the ears.
- Full-speed shoulder barge attack:
- as boxer #2 is running along, boxer #1 will gallop to catch
boxer #2 and while running along side boxer #2, boxer #1 throws
itself at boxer #2's shoulder, it doesn't seem to matter which
part of #1's body hits #2. The noise of impact is quite frightening!
