Boxers are not pit bulls!

You would be amazed at how many people think my boxer - a breed I selected specifically because they are so great with kids - is a pit bull! One woman, as I was walking my gentle fawn boxer, screamed "A PIT BULL!" and yanked her son out of the way.
Last time was in the vet's office. A woman who could not control her yellow lab started to complain about my "pit bull". Her lab was jumping up and down, barking, and lunging towards my dog, who was sitting and looking bewildered. Huh?
Just an observation - now back to your regularly scheduled discussion . . .
