Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Boxer / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 400. John is a sweet pup that was dumped at a kill shelter in AL. He is a typical puppy that will need training - house training, obedience training and crate training. His fosters have started on some of this, but he will need more reinforcement. He is a typical fun puppy that just wants a family to love him. We did have a recent scare with John when he had 3 seizures in one day. We aren't sure what happened, but we took him to the emergency vet. They did some tests and it was diagnosed as Idiopathic Epilepsy. It is something that he was born with and there isn't a true cause. He is on medication and there hasn't been a seizure since. The medication is about $20 a month. He will be on it for about 6 months and then we will discuss with the vet if we should wean him off and see if he has any more seizures. He may be on this medication for his lift - but he is currently acting normal, playing, eating and being a typical puppy! He is available for adoption through Paws Up Pet Rescue Welcome to PUPR

Breed overview
Overview:
The Boxador, a popular designer dog, is a lively crossbreed resulting from the union of a Boxer and a Labrador Retriever. Originating in North America, this hybrid was developed to combine the best traits of its parent breeds, creating a loyal and energetic companion. Physically, Boxadors are medium to large-sized dogs with a muscular build, typically weighing between 50-80 pounds. Their coat is short and dense, varying in color from brindle and fawn to black and chocolate, often displaying the distinctive Boxer mask or the gentle Lab expression. Temperamentally, they are known for being friendly, intelligent, and highly social, making them excellent family pets that thrive on interaction. While adaptable, their energy levels mean they require regular exercise and are best suited for homes with yards rather than small apartments. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health concerns inherited from their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, certain cancers, and heart conditions like aortic stenosis.
