Description
Dog Breed: Boxer (short coat). Adoption Fee: $652.54 (includes MN taxes). Update 12.5.25 Meet Zelia the Boxer “Queen of the sneaky yard decorations” Greek Origin: This meaning is associated with passion, energy, and a fervent approach to life. Hebrew Origin: In Hebrew, Zelia, meaning "my God is my strength" or "heavenly". It represents spiritual strength and a connection to the divine. French: A short form of Zélie, meaning solemn, or related to the flower Azalea. Passion, energy, determination, and spiritual strength Hi there! My name is Zelia. I’m about 9 months old, which means I’m still figuring out this big, exciting world—but I’ve already mastered the art of snuggles. My Best Qualities according to my foster dad, • Sweet as sugar and smart as a whip • Professional cuddle buddy (I take my job very seriously) • Great playmate for big dogs (like my foster sister Zarah. She is a boxer too) and little ones—yes, even my foster brother the tiny Morkie named Zander in my foster home! • Curious explorer with a touch of mischief (I may or may not sneak things out the doggie door and stash them in the yard… consider it my version of “yard art”) My Personality I’m gentle and loving, but I can be a little shy when meeting new people or seeing new things. If you move slowly and kindly, I’ll warm up quickly and show you my goofy, affectionate side. Once I trust you, you’ll have a loyal shadow who wants nothing more than to be near you. My Dream Home I’d love a family who appreciates my sweetness, gives me patience when I feel skittish, and laughs at my silly quirks. In return, I promise endless snuggles, puppy kisses, and the joy of watching me grow into the amazing Boxer I’m destined to be.

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.
