Description
Dog Breed: Boxer (short coat). Meet Scarlett. At just 5 years old, she is finally getting her chance to leave the puppy mill behind. The farmer told our volunteer that Scarlett has “aged out” of his breeding program. We’re looking for a foster home ASAP so we can welcome this sweet girl into rescue. Scarlett is friendly with the male dogs on the property and is especially fond of a little Beagle who lives with her in the barn. Like so many mill girls, she needs very little beyond patience, kindness, and a safe environment as she learns what it means to simply be a dog. *A fenced yard is a bonus, as Scarlett isn’t accustomed to leash walking to potty. Please help us if you can! The link below is to complete the application to foster or adopt. Available throughout the Northeast (NY, NJ, CT, RI, VT, ME, 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.
