You really have to wait until 8 weeks to evaluate a puppy , they will change a great deal from day to day .

That being said the correct testing to be done on boxers ( both parents) at a minimum are -

Holter test to check for ARVC ( yearly)

ECHO/Doppler - to check for SAS/AS

Thyroid test ( yearly)

DM test

Most also test hips , eyes and ARVC by gene test.


On the other forum people asked for the test results and you never
replied ( I am also a member there) .AKC registration alone does not make a dog fit the breed standard .
Can you post here about the testing that has been done on both your dogs? Then people won't want to accuse you of being a BYB
