Sandy ~ Boxer ~ On Trial 19/10/17

Are you a boxer lover? Do their cute little squished faces make you go weak at the knees? If so, you are going to be smitten with Sandy a 6 year old boxer girl who is a total cuddle-bug and is divine in every way. Sandy has a soft and sweet temperament - she enjoys meeting new people, making new friends and leaning on their legs for pats.

Sandy is playful and bubbly - she's active but not over-the-top like some boxers can be. She'd love a daily walk or light jog (she walks nicely on lead too) and then she'll happily keep the couch warm as she can be quite a lounge lizard. She loves to have a sleep-in each morning - however you may be able to tempt her up early with treats and a walk!

Sandy is very responsive to recall training - once she knows you she will return when called. She is food driven so is a pleasure to do reward based training with. She will shy away from anger or being yelled at so it's vital that her new family only use positive training methods with her. Due to her love of food she has been known to "counter surf" so you'll need to make sure you don't leave food out on the table to tempt her!

Sandy is great with other dogs - she currently lives with one large dog and many small dogs and she's good with them (even the bossy little ones). She'd suit a family of boxer lovers who have another boxer (preferably a male) so that she has canine company. Due to her being so good with a range of dogs she could also suit being matched with a friendly male pooch of another breed too.

Sandy may suit full time workers as long as she has a canine friend to hang out with whilst you're at work. She will not suit being an only dog. She may suit older kids who are confident with playful dogs and who won't be daunted by the spring in her step or her enthusiastic boxer pawing. She can get excited and jump up to greet you when you get home from work - what a welcoming committee! When she jumps up she'll put her paws around you to sneak in a cuddle at the same time.
