Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. Hi! My name is Virian, but my foster family calls me Vivvy. I’m a beautiful 4-year-old white boxer girl with the wiggliest tail! Whoever adopts me next is truly getting a gem. I was recently returned after a brief adoption because I wasn’t the right match for the resident dog. Since coming to my new foster home, I’ve done wonderfully with my two foster dog siblings. What we’ve learned is that I enjoy calm, respectful dog friends and don’t love high energy dogs that jump on me or force play. With the right match, I am happy to share my home, but I’d also be perfectly happy to be an only dog soaking up all your attention! I’m friendly, smart, playful, affectionate, quiet and obedient. I am completely house trained, crate-trained, a quick learner, and sleep quietly through the night on a dog bed in my foster parents’ room. I have never lived with a cat, so feline compatibility is unknown. I am said to be kid friendly, although there are no kids in my foster home. When outside, I don’t dig or attempt to jump fences. I love walks, car rides, and most of all…my humans. My playful side keeps coming out more as I settle in, but my love for people has been there from day one. If you think we might be a match, fill out an application and ask for Virian!

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.
