I am completely house trained. I have been taught that treats arrive in my crate and will run into it for something yummy! I have mastered the 'sit' command and am eager to learn more! My foster Mom is so proud of how I behave on leash! One day a squirrel ran in front of us and I didn't even try to bolt after it!
I am a spirited people loving guy who even does great with children! I have been around kids from ages 1-5. There is a 3yo in that group who likes to play a little rough and pull me around with the leash, and I absolutely love it! There is a female boxer and a senior male lab that live here and I get along with them both. There is a cat too... But it would not hurt my feelings to live without one of those! HAHA!
One of my trademark behaviors is that I will carry a toy with me almost everywhere I go. Stuffed toys are my fovorite but use doggy safe ones because I like to love the stuffing out of them! I know boxers can look intimidating, but our hearts are pure mush! I tend to be pretty calm in the house and content to veg out.
Not very often but once in a while, you might run across a boxer that really loves to swim. I happen to be one of those extra special ones that LOVES the water! On a recent outing I attacked the water with gusto-splash! splash! splash! So if you like water too, I would be so very excited to become your boy! Of course it is always best if dogs wear a life jacket to be on the safe side!
So if you are looking for just the right fit, please come and meet Mr Big!!
