rocky start in a home that didn’t meet his needs, this 62-lb Boxer mix has been settling beautifully into foster care in Massachusetts—and thriving.
He’s about 3 years old and absolutely packed with charm, smarts, and goofy facial expressions. Pablo is a Velcro dog through and through: he loves to be near his people, cuddle up at night, and tag along on daily adventures. He’s great on walks (though he will keep you on squirrel patrol) and is currently working with a trainer to fine-tune his leash manners and build on his success with structure and routine.
Pablo is good with dog friends with proper intros, sleeps quietly through the night on a dog bed, and is fully housebroken. He’s not a fan of the crate—and he’s made that very clear—but he’s been totally trustworthy when left alone uncrated in the house. He’d do best with someone experienced with dogs who can give him clear expectations and a calm, confident home environment.
Because of his past, we’re looking for a child-free home for Pablo where he can continue to build trust, confidence, and thrive with the right leadership. In return, he’ll give you unwavering loyalty, tons of laughs, and all the cuddles you can handle.
Pablo is ready. Are you?

A majority of our dogs are adopted/spoken for prior to transport and release from state mandated isolation.
