Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. 9/22/2025 CoCo III is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is CoCo III! I am a beautiful 11-year-old flashy brindle girl that is an owner surrender due to my owner's health failing, her now in the hospital, and no one to care for me. I am a proud member of the rescue's Silver Heart Program so be sure and ask about it because there are great perks for my adoptive family! I am described as friendly, protective, nervous, and obedient! I currently live with a 9lb Mal-Shi and I mainly ignore her existence, but I do resource guard if food is around so it's important that I am fed separately. When I was younger I was attacked by dogs so a meet and greet with dog friends is important. I currently live with a cat but don't like them in my space and will bark and run at them so a cat free home would be best please. One thing I do love is people! I currently live with two kids (ages 6 and 19 years) and do fine with them! I am fearful of men when first meeting them and it takes a day or so for me to warm up to them. I am house trained, crate trained, and at night I sleep on the floor by the human's bed. If the humans must be away and I am left alone, I am fine. When outside I have good behavior and do not dig or attempt to jump fences/gates. I'm wary of doors that are not fully open but love riding in the car, going for walks, back rubs, and affection from people! If you think I would make a great addition to your home to hang my leash in my golden years, contact the rescue today and tell them you are wanting to meet Silver Heart CoCo III 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.
