Description
Dog Breed: Boxer / Chihuahua / Mixed. Meet Journey — a 2-year-old, 30 lb Boxer mix with the cutest little underbite and a heart full of love. She’s the perfect mix of playful and easygoing: she’ll happily play fetch or tug for a few minutes, then settle in for a long nap—preferably on your lap or stretched across your legs. Journey can be shy with new people, but once she trusts you, she becomes your loyal shadow and sweetest cuddlebug. She’s house trained, learning her leash manners, and improving with car rides. She has been crated for short periods (2-4 hours at a time) and does well. She is good with other dogs (cats and kids unknown). She’s an enthusiastic chewer, so she’ll need plenty of toys to keep her busy. She can live in an apartment and reliably goes potty on leash. Journey would thrive with a patient adopter who can help her continue building confidence and maybe even provide a doggy friend. If you’re looking for a loving, snuggly companion with a snaggletooth smile, Journey might be the perfect match for you. Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. Her adoption fee is $200.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Boxerhuahua, an intriguing crossbreed resulting from the pairing of a Boxer and a Chihuahua, offers a unique blend of its parent breeds' traits. Originating from designer dog breeding, their exact inception is recent and aims to combine the best qualities of both. Physically, they are highly variable, typically falling into a medium-small size range, often with a compact, muscular build and a short coat. Their heads can lean towards either parent, sometimes showcasing a distinctive "squished" Boxer-like muzzle on a smaller frame. Temperamentally, they are known for being alert, playful, and affectionate, often exhibiting a strong protective instinct inherited from the Boxer, tempered by the Chihuahua's vivacity. They can be good family companions for those who understand their need for consistent training and socialization. While adaptable, their energy levels mean they thrive with regular exercise, making them potentially suitable for apartment living if adequately stimulated. Health-wise, like many crossbreeds, they can inherit conditions from either parent, including potential for brachycephalic issues (from the Boxer) or patellar luxation (from the Chihuahua), underscoring the importance of responsible breeding practices.
