Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. 01/12/2026 Wishbone is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Wishbone! I am a handsome 3 year old flashy fawn boy that is an owner surrender due to living in a small space and not getting along with other dogs and the landlord doesn't want me there anymore. I am described as friendly, active, playful, and affectionate! It is said that I do not get along with other dogs but have lived with one in the past and appear to be dog selective so a proper meet and greet would be needed. I was born and raised around cats and am said to love them! There are no kids in my current home so a proper meet and greet would be needed. I am house trained, crate trained, and at night I sleep in a kennel. If the humans must be away and I am left alone, I am kenneled. When outside I have good behavior and do not dig but can jump fences/gates shorter than 4.5 feet tall. I am scared of fireworks but love riding in the car, bones, chew toys, butt scratches, and treats! If you think I would make a great addition to your home contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!

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.
