Description
Dog Breed: Boxer (short coat). Tally is a sweet 6½-year-old boxer girl who is finally getting the care and comfort she deserves. When Tally arrived, she had been neglected for far too long. She was covered in fleas and suffering from a severe fungal and ear infections. Thanks to her foster family, she's cleaned up beautifully. Tally is an easy dog. She enjoys the company of other dogs, has won over her foster family's dog-savvy cat, and loves having a quiet, safe place to retreat for naps and downtime. Loud environments aren't her style—she prefers a calmer home where she can relax and feel secure. Because of her past, Tally does have some resource-guarding behaviors around food, treats, and occasionally her favorite person. She gives a little growl to let everyone know her meal or snack is hers, so she simply needs to be fed separately. With experienced dog owners who understand boxer personalities and management, she has been doing very well in foster care. Tally's ideal home would be as an only pet, or one who has a laid-back male dog and/or a dog-savvy cat. This girl has come a long way and is ready for a family who will appreciate her gentle nature, respect her boundaries, and give her the stable home she's been missing all these years. ❤️ Available throughout the Northeast (NY, NJ, CT, RI, VT, PA, DE, MD, NoVA) Apply to adopt: .CHBoxerRescue/adopt

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.
