Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. Hi! My name is Inge, but my foster family calls me "Gigi"! I am a beautiful 7 year old fawn girl that working hard to know the good life in my foster home after being with the rescue for quite some time! Nothing is known about my previous chapters in life, but although I may be older in age, I still enjoy running around the backyard throughout the day. I enjoy going on walks, chasing lizards, playing with balls, toy ropes, squeaky toys, rolling around on top of a toy, and laying on the patio and watching people go by the house! I can entertain myself with toys by tossing them around, but I appreciate a few throws of a ball by the humans too. I am house trained, crate trained, leash trained, and know "sit"! I am happy to stay outside of my crate while the humans are gone but will also go in my crate with a treat! I sleep in my crate at night but will gladly accept an invite anytime if invited on the human's bed. I do great with female dogs but do not like male dogs at all regardless of their temperament. During my walks I am very scared of cars passing by but still enjoy being active and taking in the sights and smells of the world. Although I am a lady, I can be a bit of a messy eater and drinker. I have been exposed to kids of all different ages and done well! If you think I would make a great 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.
