Description
Dog Breed: Boxer (short coat). Tyson has been adopted and returned due to some resource guarding and high prey drive. Over the past several months while in training Tyson has made great strides in working with his resource guarding and has nearly overcome it. He will need a structured home who will not let him waver from his training and assure a strong transition from training to a new home life. Tyson is also an escape artist and can get out of most kennels/crates - don’t worry though, he has his own fortified crate (no bigger than most standard crates) that he will come with! Outside of his previous resource guarding and known escapestry, he does FANTASTIC with other dogs and kids. While in training Tyson also had leash work done and LOVES long walks or runs through the field. He’s also great in the house and generally likes to lay on his bed (especially in front of a fire)… He’s really a super all-around dog that deserves a great home and his second chance!

Overview:
The Boxer is a medium-sized, short-haired dog breed of German origin, known for its distinctive appearance and vibrant personality. Physically, Boxers possess a strong, athletic build with a characteristic square head, an undershot jaw, and often a docked tail and cropped ears (though these practices are becoming less common). Their short, glossy coat typically comes in fawn or brindle, often with white markings. Temperamentally, Boxers are renowned for being incredibly loyal, intelligent, and energetic, making them fantastic companions for active families. They thrive on human interaction and can be playful and patient with children, making them excellent family pets. While their energy levels require regular exercise, their adaptability means they can adjust to apartment living if their activity needs are consistently met. However, potential owners should be aware of certain health considerations, including a predisposition to some cancers, heart conditions like cardiomyopathy, and hip dysplasia, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups.
