Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. 5/9/2026 Dixie III is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Dixie III! I am a beautiful 8 year old flashy fawn girl that is an owner surrender due to changes in my family's dynamics and no one is able to care for me. I am bonded to my companion, Rambo, and it is important that we are adopted together, which means double the boxer love! I am described as friendly, shy, active, smart, calm, playful, affectionate, nervous, and obedient! I am said to get along with other dogs great, however I have never lived with a cat so it is uncertain if I am feline friendly. There are 5 children in the home (ages 3-19 years) and I am said to be kid friendly! I am crate trained but will need assistance with house training in my forever home. At night I sleep inside or outside in a kennel and if the humans must be away, I am fine being left alone. When outside I do not dig but I am capable of jumping kiddie gates/fences. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, bones, attention, to be free and run, and love! My current owner says I am "very sweet and loving" and I agree! If you think I would make a great addition to your home contact the rescue today and tell them you are wanting to meet bonded pair Rambo and Dixie 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.
