Adopt a Boxer (short coat)
Mossberg aka Moses the Dog needs a home
Moses was surrendered to a very high kill Ohio shelter due to some medical needs that his family could not afford to treat.
MEDICAL UPDATE: Moses' gastrointestinal issues are under control now with a regular diet of Grain Free LID food.
Hi there! My name's Moses! I'm a young Boxer boy with heart of gold, and a whole lot of energy! I love kisses, cuddles and play time the most! I am wonderful with cats, and I'll cuddle but not chase them. I do great with other dogs, and in public settings like the dog park, I am VERY submissive. However, in my home, I like to be in charge of play time. I'm all about lots and lots of play time, I'm just a little pushy with certain dogs at times like the ones that don't wanna play with me. I love all people including children, but I'm a big bull with a lot of energy, so I just might do things like accidentally knock over small children. I love playtime and staying active, so an active family would suit me best. Foster Mom LOVES taking me hiking because I'm SO well behaved out there. I'll never get too far ahead of her, and wouldn't run off in a million years! I'm a young boy, so like most young Boxers, I will need solid structure and reinforcement to remind me not to do things like put my paws on the counter when I smell food. I don't do that sort of stuff when Foster Mom's looking, just when she's not, so to stop that sort of stuff, she simply crates or puts me in the bedroom when she's gone. I know the phrase "go to your room!" I'm house broken and crate trained, but do appreciate a regular schedule! ??
