Description
Dog Breed: Boxer (short coat). Adoption Fee: $427.50 includes all applicable MN sales tax. We found out about Sissy being in a shelter in southern Illinois, got all temperament information, posted for a foster, had a tentative plan, and committed to her. In the middle of getting a transport plan together, the shelter told us that Sissy is pregnant, about a month along. We let her foster family know and they did not hesitate...they said they would still foster her. Sissy is at her foster home and is getting all settled in. We will get her into the vet to get her checked over and to get any routine vetting done thst can safely be done. Please check back in on Sissy to follow her story! 9/17: Sissy went to the vet to get checked over on 9/11 and about 24 hours later we had six babies! Momma and babies are all doing great. The pups are nursing well and Sissy is the best mom. 11/6 UPDATE: Sissy will be moving to her Wisconsin foster home on 11/15. We will let her get settled in for a bit then get her in to be spayed. Please check back in on her soon! 10/28 UPDATE...Sissy is a wonderful mom to her six pups and is just the best girl ever. She gets along with all other dogs, does not mind sharing her space with cats, and is great with everyone that she meets. We will be getting her routine vetting done and work on getting her in to be spayed and she will be moving to a foster home very soon!

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.
