Description
Dog Breed: Boxer (short coat). This precious senior boy was found in the middle of the road in rural eastern Kentucky. He was picked up by some good samaritans and we just couldn't not help. We named him Chance and he was taken to the vet clinic to be scanned for a microchip, got all checked over, and was held for a few days of stray hold. Chance has since received all of his needed vetting, which of course was everything including being neutered and microchipped. He was full of intestinal parasites (hookworm) so was dewormed. His bloodwork looked pretty good for an older guy. Chance is still at the clinic and we are getting to know him a little better before moving him to his tempoary foster home. So far we know that he does not like to have his ears or paws messed with! He does great with going in and out of the kennel to go outisde and does seem to have some hearing issues. He may also not have the best eyesight either. We are also waiting to hear what his estimated age is. Stay tuned for updated info and pics on Chance!!

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.
