Al, ~ 1-2 years Male Boxer / Shepherd
Mix
|
Al is a 1 or 2 year old neutered male Boxer mix. He has no tail. He weighs around 45#, and although he is playful and goofy, he has made tremendous progress with clicker training. He is so eager to please and a quick learner. He's going to be such a devoted companion for someone. He thrives on attention and calms right down when he is petted and stroked. Today he let the volunteers give him a manicure with the nail grinder and he lay so still, just soaking in the attention. He is a really nice dog, very dextrous with his paws, and he gives hugs. He has been in foster care in TN for approx. 2 months before coming up here. He is super with small or large dogs..... All he wants to do is play. He never sees a stranger. Sometimes he will jump on you with excitement, but we're working on it and he is responding very well. He loves pets and for you to rub his tummy every day when he finishes his food. Al and Mercury are GOOD buddies. He would be good with teenagers or a young couple who would play with him and take him walking or to the dog park. This is a fun dog with a boxer personality. He will wrap his front paws around you like a boxer does. He would benefit greatly from another dog to play with too. A fenced yard and dog door would just be icing on the cake. He barks when he sees a cat....so we're not sure about cats. Our process is for you to fill out an application and you should hear from us within a few days after his arrival. He is available although in a foster home, so please apply before dropping by. HE WILL BE AT THE MEET AND GREETS SATURDAY AND SUNDAYTHIS WEEKEND!
