My personality

My story

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

Name: Nisha
Nickname: Nish. Baby Nish.
Breed: Boxer
Age: 2 years
Weight: A petite 42 lbs.
Before OMD: Found as a (very skinny) stray and did her stray hold at the city shelter. When no one came for her, she joined our crew!
Energy Level: Medium-high. Spends a lot of time glued to the couch, but also needs her daily walks, and when the zoomies hit her...take cover!
Descriptors: Social. Outgoing. Cuddly. Loving. Silly. Wiggly. Playful. Classic Boxer.
Super power: Everyone who meets her falls in love.
Love language: Snuggling. Specifically, right on top of you...if she could be one with you, she would. She also shows her love by making sure you never feel alone. No one should have to go to the bathroom alone, after all.
What we love most: Her pouty mug. How she insists on gifting you her toys while you're in the shower (yes, depositing them right in the shower)...
What she loves most: Keeping an eye (and herself) on her people. Walks. Going to work with her foster dad (a veterinarian!). Shaking her toys vigorously. Peanut Butter.
Working on: keeping 4 on the floor. Pulling while on leash (and some reactivity when seeing dogs). Reigning in that Boxer exuberance. Calm state of mind when alone.
Kids: Yes, sturdy, dog-savvy kids only though because she is still learning manners and the above noted exuberance.
Dogs: Will thrive as an only dog, but there is potential she could do well with a sibling if it's the right match. She is often reactive when she sees a dog on leash and doesn't quite know how to interact appropriately (Boxer exuberance..) when playing and being corrected by another dog.
Cats: Yes, if dog-savvy. She currently lives with a cat and does well. She is definitely interested in him, but has learned to peacefully coexist 95% of the time with occasional chasing.
Hosuetrained: Mostly. Completely housebroken when her foster family is home (and overnight) but occasional accidents when she's home alone.
Crate trained: Not a fan and will make her displeasure known.
Ideal Home: A love and understanding for the Boxer breed. An appreciation for snuggling. Home more often than not.
Nisha is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm negative. She is available for adoption to residents of IL and CT and surrounding states.

Additional adoption info

One More Dog Rescue (OMD), formerly Ruff Start Happy Tails, requires all potential adopters to fill out an adoption application and agree to a home visit prior to any adoption. Once the application is approved, a meet and greet will be scheduled between the potential adopter (s) and the dog.

When a dog is adopted through One More Dog, an adoption contract must be signed, and we ask that a donation in the amount of $500 ($350 for seniors) be made at the time of adoption to help our rescue cover a portion of the costs we incur through pull fees, vetting, and training.

Applications can be found here: http://www.omdrescue.org/adoptapp.html
*We will adopt to approved applicants (who are able to meet & adopt in person) who live in CT and the surrounding areas: New England, New York, and New Jersey.
