I was taken to a loud and kind of scary place but thanks to the awesome people there I was taken care of and they helpled me make my way to rescue! Lenny is approximately 2.5 years old. He tested very well with other dogs at the shelter. He is all caught up on his routine vetting now and will be neutered and microchipped very soon. He is a little timid but that tail wags non-stop and he warms up pretty quickly. 9/30 UPDATE: Lenny was neutered, microchipped and had a dental today and did great!!! 10/20 UPDATE: This adorable boy made his way to his Illinois foster home last week and is getting all settled in.

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.
