6/1/13 It has
been two weeks and Patti is settling in nicely in her new foster home. Patti
seems to have never met a stranger. She warms up to everyone she meets and
has an adorable little nub wag, causing her to dance with excitement. She is
wonderful around people of all ages. She is very gentle around my 4
grandchildren, ages 10 months to 4 years old, and also my 94 year old Dad.
Patti has full run of the house and can be left alone with her fur
brother and is not destructive at all! Patti absolutely loves to go on walks
and she walks beautifully beside you, never pulling one bit. Patti does like
to be the one in charge at her tender age of 10, but this only comes out
when playing with her fur brother, who also wants to be the one in charge at
times. Neither one of them bark, not even when the doorbell rings! However,
they both are very vocal with their play.
Patti would do wonderfully as an only dog or with another easygoing male.
She would prefer a quieter household for the most part, as her favorite
pastime is lounging on her over stuffed dog beds or the sofa.

Patti
continues to be a true delight in her foster home. She is almost as perfect
as you can get. She is sweet, a good listener, can be left loose in the
house and is not destructive or bad, she is happy, and loves to run and
play. Patti has no idea that she is 10 years old other than she does like to
be the boss, which is typical of older females. Patti needs a home with a
male who can respect her as the one in charge, but at her age who can blame
her - she certainly has earned that position.
With people and children, Patti has a limitless amount of love to give.
She is one of the sweetest and best boxers I have ever fostered and if I
didn't have 6 boxers of my own already, I would adopt her myself in an
instant. Because Patti's foster mom is moving at the end of May, she is in
need of a new foster placement. Please don't let this sweet senior
girl go into a kennel. If you are interested in fostering or adopting
Patti, apply today!

Patti is
doing great in her foster home! She is such a sweet girl and just
loves to be in your lap. Patti visited the ophthalmologist this past
week, and she has lost vision in her right eye due to an old injury that was
never treated. She is not in any pain at this time and it doesn't slow
her down any. If you are interested in adopting a wonderful senior
girl who gets along great with children, dogs, and cats - apply for Patti!

Patti
has recovered from kennel cough and was able to be picked up from the
shelter yesterday. She has been kept in a temporary foster home the past two
weeks and that foster mom indicated that Patti has done great with her two
other boxers. She also likes the cat, although he is not a fan of hers.
Patti has been great with the children in the home (ages 3, 7, and 17
years). She is completely housebroken.
Patti was transported to our vet yesterday and the volunteer indicated
that she is a petite girl who is as sweet as can be! She was relaxed in the
car and enjoyed all the attention. Once Patti is spayed and has her
dental, she will be arriving at her new foster home with several other
boxers. Don't pass up this sweet senior girl - she is going to be a
wonderful addition to a lucky home.

Patti is a 10 year old female boxer who was surrendered to the shelter
when her owners moved to a place that did not allow pets. She will be going
to our rescue vet soon for some dental work and to be updated on all vet
care. The shelter reports that Patti is a very friendly girl. She
previously lived with another dog. Patti is in urgent need of a foster
home so we can get her out of the shelter and into rescue. If you are able
to foster Patti, apply today! |
