Sandra

Meet Sandra Sandra is a beautiful, approximately 6-year-old Boxer with the kind of charming, easygoing personality that makes her incredibly easy to fall in love with. Sandra is house trained and crate trained, and her crate is actually one of her favorite places. During the day, her crate door stays open, and when she’s ready for a nap or a little quiet time, you’ll often find her curled up inside by choice. It’s her cozy little retreat. She gets along wonderfully with cats and can live with other dogs, although Sandra seems like the kind of girl who wouldn’t mind being someone’s one-and-only. If she does share her home with another dog, she’d be happiest with a respectful companion who understands personal space and isn’t constantly in her face. Sandra is more about peaceful coexistence than nonstop wrestling! Her biggest work in progress is leash walking. It appears that going for walks simply wasn’t something Sandra had much experience with before coming into rescue. She feels safest walking very close to her person—sometimes right up against your leg—and she’s already making slow, steady progress. With patience, reassurance, and practice, we think this girl is going to figure out that walks can actually be pretty wonderful. Sandra spent part of her previous life being used for breeding, and now it’s finally her turn. Her turn to be someone’s baby. Her turn to have a soft place to land, a family who adores her, and a life where nothing is expected of her except to be Sandra. She isn’t looking for anything complicated. A comfy crate, kind humans, maybe a respectful furry roommate or two, and someone willing to walk beside her while she discovers just how good life can be.
