Description
Posted Breed: Boxer. 5/20/2024 Bonnie IV is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Bonnie IV! I’m a beautiful 6-year-old brindle girl that is an owner surrender due to my family not having enough time for me and I’m no longer getting along with the other dog in the home. For everyone’s safety, it is best that I am the only dog in the home. Years ago I was separated from my family for 8 months and it is suspected that contributed to some of my behavior with other dogs. I am described as shy, playful, affectionate, and nervous! I am kid friendly and currently live with 3 kids (ages 2-6 years old) and love them! I have lived with a cat and did not like it so I need to be in a cat free home. I am timid and shy around strangers and will bark and run from them. I am house trained, crate trained, and sleep in my crate at night. When the humans must be away from the home, I do ok but prefer to be with the family. I am fearful of new people, storms, and fireworks and do not like sharing my people or food with other dogs. When I am outside, I have good behavior and do not dig or attempt to jump fences/gates. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, playing catch, balls, getting love and hugs from the humans, treats, and food! If you think I would make a good addition to your family, contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!

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.
