Description
Dog Breed: Boxer (short coat). MEET HERRICK This stunning white boxer boy has been waiting patiently in boarding, and he deserves a real home — even a temporary one. Herrick is a 2–3 year old, 63 lb boxer with the cutest expressions and a big personality to match. He’s friendly with female dogs, not cat friendly, and he’s heartworm negative (yay!). And just to clear up the common question — he’s not deaf. Herrick can jump fences, so he needs a foster or adopter who can keep him safely supervised or has a secure setup. He’s a smart, athletic boy who just wants attention, structure, and someone to belong to. Right now, he’s stuck in a kennel — and it’s no place for a young boxer with this much potential. Please help us get him into a home where he can decompress, relax, and shine. Available in the Northeast Needs a female-dog home No cats If you can foster or adopt Herrick, even short-term, please apply today: .chboxerrescue/adopt

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.
