Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. 6/25/2025 Diesel VII is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Diesel VII ! I am a handsome 9 year old flashy brindle boy that is an owner surrender due to people moving into my home and my owner unable to financially care for me. I am described as smart, calm, protective, playful, affectionate, and obedient! I like to be the protector when at home but do well with strangers when being boarded or being watched by friends! I prefer people to ask my owner to touch me because I do not like strangers coming up to touch me without notice. I do not like to be poked at or bothered, so it would be best if I am in a home with no kids so I can relax. It is said that I am dog friendly and have had exposure to a shitzu, lab, and rottweiler with no issues. I have only seen cats from a distance and show signs of wanting to chase them so a cat free home would be best! I am house trained, crate trained, know basic commands, and at night I sleep in my crate in the living room but have slept on a dog bed before. If the humans must be away, I don't like to be alone but remain calm in my crate and wait for the humans to come back. When outside I do not attempt to jump fences/gates but I am curious what is under the grass and will dig to find out. I am scared of fireworks and do not like vacuums or being brushed with deshedding brushes. Some of my favorite things are playing tug of war, playing fetch, chewing bones, laying near the humans, and rough house play when the human initiates it! My current owner says I am a "sweet dog once you get to know me" and "once I realize you're taking care of me, I will show you love, loyalty, and protection"! 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.
