ARCHIE - BOXER / GREATER SWISS MOUNTAIN DOG / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Boxer / Greater Swiss Mountain Dog / Mixed (short coat). Say Hello to Archie! He was born on October 9, 2025, which makes him just over 5 months old. He is being fostered in Scappoose, OR. Archie was the runt of a rescued litter of 9 Boxer-mix puppies. They were all malnourished, underdeveloped, and small. He was about 1/3 smaller and skinnier than all of the others when he first arrived at this foster home at 4½ months old; he weighed just over 10 pounds. And now, after three weeks of love and consistent meals, he weighs 20 pounds and has transformed into the sweetest, happiest, cutest pup that anyone could hope for! It’s very unlikely he will ever be a big dog, but he’s finally getting the nutrition he needs to grow and develop properly. Archie is as loveable as he is loving; a world-class snuggler. He’s smart, responsive, and has good recall already. He would almost prefer a cozy lap and a snooze over tasty food...we said almost, LOL! Training is, of course, a work in progress since Archie hasn’t had any up to this point; but socialization will never be an issue with this boy. He is a delightfully bold little guy; great with people and dogs and very eager to play with cats (who may not be eager in return). He can be cautious, but he’s got the Boxer eagerness to explore everything and love everybody. Archie may have had a rough start, but he has put that all behind him and has become a delightful young pup who will win the heart of the lucky family who gets to adopt him.
