Hi, I stumbled across your message (and consequently this great site) in Google results while I was searching for some information for a boxer-related web site. I know Mary and John Hambleton and thought I could add some information for you. First of all, the spelling for their affix is Marbelton (this may help with more accurate internet searches). They are still one of the UK's leading kennels, with a string of current and past champions from their excellent boxers. Their web site is very informative and includes all of their contact details: www.marbeltonboxers.co.uk The other breed that they have gone into is Pugs, where they are also doing rather well. Mary's book 'I wish I Had A Champion' is fascinating reading, and a limited number of copies (signed, if you ask her ;-) ) are still available directly through their web site. They are genuinely nice people, with a passion for the boxer breed. I'm sure they would be happy to hear from you and to fill in any missing details of their line for your dog's pedigree. As someone has already mentioned, they are the founder members of the West Lancs Boxer Training Club, which is about 25 years old and meets each Monday in Haydock. Anyone who wishes to call in is made welcome and Mary and John are there on almost every occasion, unless they are out of the country on judging appointments, etc. The club's web site is still under construction, but should be posted within the next couple of weeks on www.westlancsboxers.co.uk . I hope this information helps, good luck with your boxers. Colin

Welcome to Dogsey There is loads of info on Marbleton boxers on their website. The link is in a post a few above this one Looking forward to seeing some pics.
he is an excellent example of the breed. perfect structure. beautiful eye set and great ears! why do you ask!
i missed interpreted i am not a puppy farmer. i am only new to the boxer world. im totally against puppy farming. i only have 3 bitchs at home with me and they are all my pets! sorry for any confusion!
Sorry, I never mentioned "puppy farmer" The reason I asked , is it was just a strange statement ..."he will make a good stud" there needs to be a lot of research into whether your dog is "stud" material , health/temperament/type...and as you class your self as commercial breeder, I wondered what you meant ...that's all.
Please note the off topic posts about Yorkshire Terriers have been moved here http://www.dogsey.com/showthread.php?t=384 thank you.
