Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. Hi! My name is Wayne! I landed in a shelter with my brother because I was unwanted. That's okay because the nice lady from Houston Boxer Rescue saved us and assured me that I would find a great home. I am handsome and full of polka dots! Who wouldn't want me? I am still very much a puppy which means I have a lot to learn. I am still learning potty training and what I can and cannot chew on, but I hear Boxers are pretty smart so I think I will figure it out with some basic training and patience! Oh, and guess what? I am NOT deaf! I can hear all the fun! I really love laying and rolling around in the grass with my brother. I don't think the shelter had much grass for me to play on, but me and my brother like to wrestle in the grass! I am a little more outgoing than my brother, but I am still just as sweet and friendly. I get along great with my foster parent's big female Boxer and small male dog. I play nice and share my toys also. I have a fascination with the water hose and will try to stick my face in it! I am a bit of a food hog and will try to eat my brother's food, but I think it's because we have been in the shelter together. I should be fed separate from other animals just in case I decide to be guarded over my food bowl. When I'm done playing and being cute all day, I like to snuggle with my foster parents in their lap. I stay in a kennel at night with my brother and when they are not home and so far, I am doing great! Please fill out an application if you think you could be my forever family! Transport Fee: Our basic transport fee is $300 for boxers traveling outside of Texas to their new homes in predetermined destinations(East Coast) using a trusted transport company. The transport is based on location and travel time. Note: Transport is not available within Texas or Louisiana.

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.
