Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. Hi! My name is Whoopie! I am a beautiful 7-year-old flashy brindle girl that was found as a stray in the San Antonio area. I have left big city life and am now in the care of the rescue and spending a few nights with a temp foster. Despite my sugar face, I have the spirit of a young gun! I am a sweet gal that gets the zoomies, love chasing squirrels in the backyard, and cuddling on the couch! I am leash trained, house trained, and crate trained! I will stay in the crate overnight without a fuss but prefer to sleep in the bed with the humans. I like to see what the humans are doing and if I can be a part of it so I will follow the humans from room to room to keep a close eye. I am dog friendly but have not yet been around kids or cats. I am very gentle in nature and with taking treats so my temp foster thinks I would be good around small children but a proper introduction would be encouraged. I have good manners and do not jump and am very respectful of personal space. 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.
