Hi! My name is Jax and I'm a 13-month-old big lug of a Boxer, with maybe a little something else mixed in. I am neutered, current on my vaccines, and am being fostered in Shoreline, WA.
My foster mom says I'm gorgeous & that I want nothing more than to please. She has been teaching me the "kennel up" command, so I now know to go in my crate willingly when my foster mom leaves the house. She makes it an extra great place for me to hang out because I get rewarded for going in there! I also eat my meals in there, have access to toys and/ or bones in there, and only get special treats when I go in the crate like a good boy.
There's a female Boxer in my foster home & she's a ton of fun! I'd love to have a female pup in my forever home. My foster mom hasn't had a chance to introduce me to other dogs outside of the house yet, but she thinks I'd be okay with appropriate introductions. I did get to go to a rescue event though, where there were other dogs, and I think I did pretty good considering all the commotion going on; and as long as my personal space was respected, and I wasn't barked at.
My foster mom says I am a Velcro dog who wants to be touching my people at all times & that I want to please them.
I just need a lot of structure & direction, so that I know what you want from me. I'm learning sit, down, wait, stay, kennel up, and off; but I am a puppy, so short positive training sessions work the best.
My foster mom says I have a pretty remarkable Boxer gut so she's giving me yogurt, pumpkin, and probiotics, in addition to high-quality food. That combination seems to be helping, so you may not have to leave your windows open too often.
Iam really good about going potty outside if you take me out often, but I don't yet know how to ask to go out, so my foster mom says limited freedom is critical to avoid accidents. If you don't know what that means, just ask.
I would love some older kids in my forever family, but I may be a bit too energetic for small kids.
Overall, though, my foster mom says I'm a really good boy!
Are vou looking for an awesome, handsome pup to add to your home ? I’m just right here for you.
