When, Where and How I Got My Boxer
Sasha is our 3rd Boxer. We rescued the first 2 so we knew we wanted another when they were gone. We found Sasha with a family that had gotten her for their 10 yr old daughter. After a week, the daughter lost interest we took her. She was only 7 weeks old at the time.
I'd Describe My Dog As…
She was the easiest to house break I've ever seen. She only went in the house about 3 times. (Our others were grown dogs when we got them.) She is so full of energy that I made her a homemade tether ball that she will play with for hours. ( See photo.)
Advice
- You need plenty of room for them to run and they require a lot of attention. May not be good for small children as they can play rough but would never hurt them on purpose.
