Boxer and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Angola, Indiana

Meet Pete 👨‍🦳

Good ol' Petey here is an estimated 8 year old mix. He's an older boy, but he doesn't let that slow him down (too much). Pete still gets some "zoomies", or at least his version of it. He's not the fastest or the strongest boy around, but he still likes to be at least a little active. So long as he gets some space to prance around and some toys to play with, he's a happy guy.

He's a well mannered boy who tends to keep his kennel clean. As much as he likes to play, he doesn't tend to chew or be destructive with any of the blankets or dog beds he is given. He's also a very gentle boy who gets along with everyone he's met. He can be a little intimidating to other dogs at first, but he gets along with them well. Same with feline friends.

Above everything though, Pete is a goofy, loyal snugglebug at heart. His desires are simple: a home to call his own and a person to snuggle up with at the end of the day. If you're looking to add an older, certified Good Boy into your life, Pete is the perfect fit for you. 🐾

The boxer is a medium to large sized dog breed known for its muscular build, distinctive square head, and energetic personality. Boxers are loyal, affectionate, and good natured companions, making them an ideal family pet. They are intelligent, playful, and love to be around people, making them excellent with children. Boxers require consistent training, plenty of exercise, and socialization to thrive. With their strong work ethic and protective instincts, boxers excel in various roles, including as service dogs, therapy dogs, and in dog sports.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
