Notes from Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue

Hi, I’m Buddy and looking for my forever home!

I’m currently couch surfing with my foster mom and 2 foster fur siblings. I’m 11 years old but don’t let my age fool you. I’m good with being a couch potato but also good with running around all silly. I’ve been with my foster family for almost a month. At first she kenneled me and I did great in there. Now I have free range of the house. My foster mom works from home and I sleep in the dog bed in her office. When she leaves you can find me and my fur siblings sleeping on the couch or being apart of the neighborhood watch.

I get along with both female and male dogs. I’ve been around a few other dogs besides my foster fur siblings and everything went well. I love to snuggle up in my dog bed or blankets near others. At night I sleep in the human bed. I can get up on the couch no issues but my foster mom’s bed is high so I use dog steps. I love to run and play outside and I recently started playing with dog toys. When someone comes to visit, I bark at first but then I get excited to meet new people. My foster mom has a fenced in yard so I can roam all over. I do love taking walks and walk very nice on a leash. I’ve never had an accident in the house while living with my foster family.
