Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. ATTENTION! Sarge here, to sell you on all the wonderful reasons for you to adopt me! First, I am a stunningly handsome, almost 2 year-old, neutered, purebred Boxer full of lots of fun, adventure and love to give your family. Second, I am your typical lovable, goofy, high energy boy - always having to be where the action is ... even if there is no action whatsoever. I guess that is why Private Foster Mom recommends no cats nor small dogs because I have to always be where they are, even if they don't want me to; I don't see any reason why I can't follow them wherever they go to ensure they are following the rules, but she says that cats and some dogs prefer their privacy. Why she also recommends that my forever family would best be one that either already has a boxer or had one previously, so that they are fully on board with what I am! The next best home would be one with another high energy dog who could keep up with my goofiness. Third, I know I would love a family who is as adventurous as me, but who can also provide me with some structure as I can be a little too much with people too. I just like to jump up to say Hi and do a sniff inspection, but not everyone likes that. Why Private Foster Mom also recommends that my best chance for success would be with a family that has older children and who are as active as I am - no young children or Senior Citizens who might find my boisterousness to be a little off-putting. Fourth, I do require at least 2 walks each day, but they don't have to be long - just enough to help with my energy level. I also am pretty good on a walk - I do get excited when I see other people, especially if they have dogs too, but Foster Mom is working on this and she believes that socialization, training, and structure will help me get better. Fifth, like any good soldier, I do know some Commands - Sit, Down, Wait/Stay and Leave It - I even sit and wait for each meal when I am asked. I do have a food allergy that PFM is dealing with by putting me on a raw diet - I know, I LOVE IT, and since being with her, some of my hair has started to come back, so Bonus right?!! Hope you will find me as absolutely wonderful as I find myself! Located in Chatham

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.
