Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. 6/4/2026 Shadow II is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Shadow II! I am a handsome 8.5 year old brindle boy that is an owner surrender due to one of my owner's passing away and due to the health and moving of my other owner, I am needing to find a forever family! I am described as friendly, active, protective, playful, and affectionate! I am very protective of my home and will bark at people but when they come inside I want to shower them with all the affection! I currently live with another boxer and weenie dog and do fine with them. It is uncertain if I am friendly with other dogs beside them. I have lived with 2 cats before their passing and I did fine with them. There are no kids in my home but my owner's grandkids and friend's children come to visit and I enjoy them! I'm house trained, crate trained, and at night I sleep inside. If the humans must be away, I am fine being left alone and happy to see them when they return! When outside I have good behavior and do not dig or attempt to jump fences/ gates! Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, playing with stuffed dog animals, sleeping, playing in the yard, attention, laying in the humans' lap, sleeping on my back with my legs in the air, and being goofy! If you think I would make a great addition to your family contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am 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.
