Brando

Posted in Adoption, BHBR at 2:02 am by Administrator

Brando is a young, adult brindle male with natural ears, cropped tail and some beautiful white markings. He is a very friendly boy and has such charming characteristics to his personality! He continually wants to please, cuddle, play and just love you. He’s very good with other dogs. Brando’s  petite for a boxer boy and will not get any bigger. He is neutered, chipped, vaccinated, wormed, and Heartworm negative.  He’s ready for his Forever Home!!

If you are looking for a first time boxer, or one that is easier to manage, this little fellow would be your guy. He’s smaller, very playful, but listens when you want him to stop.  He does need to learn some things, but he’s only a year old, so that will come.

Brando a refresher on house training, is kennel trained, but does pull on the leash some. He will do the typical boxer jump up on people, but he is not obnoxious about it like some boxers. He wants to know who his people are that will LOVE HIM FOR LIFE (and he will love them back and do as they ask). Boxers strive to please their owners and bond quickly. Brando listens very well and is happiest curled up in your lap.

If interested in Brando, fill out an application.  Brando’s adoption donation will be $275.
