BURKE here and I'm an 18 month old Boxer Boy. I was in Missouri City and was loose on the streets. I was picked up by Animal Control. They looked for my family, but no one came to claim me.
I am in rescue now. I just moved into a foster home and I'm getting along with all of my foster brothers and sisters. They serve really good food here and I am eating and resting and filling out my once skinny body. You know it is hard to get good food when you are living on the road! I get along well with the other dogs in my foster home, but no cats for me. I'm just not a cat guy. It is not personal, I just want to chase them and that doesn't go well.
I am doing well with potty training and crate training. I walk well on a leash with the other dogs, but I am a bit shy of traffic. Therefore, when you adopt me you will have to be patient with me on the road.
Like all Boxers, I love to play. I am just now learning about toys and I really like them. I like to hug and cuddle...like a sweet Boxer boy. I know how to do the Boxer kidney bean dance...it is a little dance we Boxers do when we are excited. I twist my body and wiggle all over with excitement.
Please check back for more information on me. OR if it is love at first sight, please complete an application for BURKE!
