Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. 01/13/2025 Willie II is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Willie II! I am a handsome 2 year old flashy brindle boy that is an owner surrender due to changes in my family's dynamics and my owner is no longer able to care for me. My littermate sister, Callie II, is also available for adoption and we prefer to stay together since we've been together our whole life! I am described as friendly, shy, active, smart, protective, playful, affectionate, nervous, and obedient! It is said that I get along with other dogs, currently living with Callie and our parents, but occasional spats over toys or treats happen. I am stingy with my food so eating in kennels happens in my current home with all dogs to eliminate any issues. I have never lived with a cat so it is uncertain if I am feline friendly. There are two kids in my current home (ages 8 and 16 years) and I am very playful and affectionate with them! I am nervous around strangers and will need time to warm up. I am a big boy and will jump but mean no harm so a home with older kids may suit me best. I am house trained, crate trained, and at night I sleep in my kennel. If the owners must be away, I am fine being left alone. When outside I have good behavior and do not dig but I can jump high so a tall fence is needed to keep me secure. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, playing catch with ball and ropes, playing fetch, cuddling, and being pet! If you think Callie and I would make a great addition to your home contact the rescue today and give them our names because we are 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.
