My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there! My name is Pretty, and I'm a 1-year-old boxer with a lot of love and energy to share. I came in from animal control, and while my past might be a bit of a mystery, I'm all about looking forward to a bright future with a loving family.

When I first arrived at the shelter, I was very hyper and loved jumping on people to show my excitement. But guess what? I've already improved so much! I can now easily redirect my energy to my favorite squeaky toys. Fetch is one of my all-time favorite games, and I'll even drop the toy for you so we can keep the game going. I have a fun habit of dropping my toys in spots where I have to fish them out, so I might really enjoy a snuffle mat!

I adore treats and will sit very nicely for them. I pick up on training quickly, so I'm sure I can learn lots of new tricks and commands with your help. Even though I have a lot of energy, I also have a very sweet side. I love cuddles and affection just as much as I love playing.

If you're looking for a playful, energetic companion who is also sweet and eager to learn, I'm your girl. Let's meet and see if we can make each other's lives even more fun and loving!
