Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Boxer / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 400. Meet Aggie! (Formerly Ronan, but he’s upgraded—new name, same adorable chaos.) Born on October 16th, Aggie is a 27-pound snuggle nugget which is the perfect size for lap warming, bed hogging, and dramatically throwing himself into your arms like the star of a telenovela. With a gorgeous seal-colored coat, a heart of gold, and just enough goofball energy to keep your life interesting. He’s neutered, vaccinated, and ready to wiggle his way straight into your lap and your heart. Aggie didn’t have the easiest start. He and his three siblings came from a heartbreaking situation—only two survived after being neglected by another rescue, and his dog mom checked out early on. The pups were dangerously underweight and had to be bottle-fed back to health. So yeah, Aggie has seen some things… and he’s here to tell the tale (mostly through zoomies and enthusiastic barking at the wind). Because of that rocky start, Aggie resource guards his food—totally understandable—so he’s fed in his crate. Outside the food bowl? Total love bug. Raised with other dogs, he’s playful, social, and would be thrilled to have a canine sibling to wrestle and romp with. Now, full disclosure: Aggie isn’t gunning for “Dog Jeopardy” any time soon. But what he lacks in academic ambition, he makes up for in charm and commitment to being the most snuggly loaf in the room. I can't say it enough, he thrives on affection, belly rubs, and curling up as close to you as physically possible—he's basically a weighted blanket with legs. Now, don’t be fooled by his size—Aggie has the energy of a dog twice his weight and the vocal cords of a town crier. Is that a bird? A breeze? A suspicious-looking Amazon box? You’ll hear about it. (We suspect there’s some chihuahua in the family tree.) He is probably part chihuahua, part neighborhood watch captain. He may not be the calmest dog on the block, but he makes up for it with charm, resilience, and top-tier cuddling skills. If you're looking for a funny, affectionate sidekick who’s overcome the odds and still greets life with a tail wag and a full-body wiggle—Aggie’s your guy.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Boxerhuahua, an intriguing crossbreed resulting from the pairing of a Boxer and a Chihuahua, offers a unique blend of its parent breeds' traits. Originating from designer dog breeding, their exact inception is recent and aims to combine the best qualities of both. Physically, they are highly variable, typically falling into a medium-small size range, often with a compact, muscular build and a short coat. Their heads can lean towards either parent, sometimes showcasing a distinctive "squished" Boxer-like muzzle on a smaller frame. Temperamentally, they are known for being alert, playful, and affectionate, often exhibiting a strong protective instinct inherited from the Boxer, tempered by the Chihuahua's vivacity. They can be good family companions for those who understand their need for consistent training and socialization. While adaptable, their energy levels mean they thrive with regular exercise, making them potentially suitable for apartment living if adequately stimulated. Health-wise, like many crossbreeds, they can inherit conditions from either parent, including potential for brachycephalic issues (from the Boxer) or patellar luxation (from the Chihuahua), underscoring the importance of responsible breeding practices.
