Description
Dog Breed: Boxer (short coat). Adoption Fee: $150.00. Hello, world! I am Marilla, a 10-year-old boxer who is looking for someone to share my golden years with! As a woman of a distinguished age, I have already mastered the skills that make me an excellent housemate. I am house trained and crate trained. I walk well on a leash. I know basic commands. I like meeting people of all ages and am very gentle with kids. I am polite and a sweetheart to be around. According to my foster mom, I can also be set in my ways. What she means is that I know what I prefer. Sometimes I prefer to take a walk, and sometimes I prefer to just sniff in the yard. Sometimes I prefer to sleep in your bed with you, and sometimes I prefer to sleep on the couch. Sometimes I prefer to chase a ball, and sometimes I prefer to nap. Well, most of the time I prefer to nap, unless you are offering me snacks of cheese or peanut butter. I am an older gal after all. And because I am an older gal, it isn’t as easy for me to get around any more. I have a hard time climbing stairs, so it would be better if my new home has a main floor that I can claim as my own. I might need your help getting on the couch or in the car. Also, because I’m a boxer, I shouldn’t live with cats, smaller dogs, or puppies. If you have a bigger dog, we would definitely need to meet before If you think I could be the girl for you, apply to meet me today at bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication .

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.
