Boxer and Pit Bull Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

TIGER came to the Harrison County Dog Pound in Cadiz, OH as a stray, but no one came for him so their loss can be your gain. TIGER is a 9 month old Boxer/Pittie mix with beautiful brindle markings that rival those of an actual tiger, but not to worry-this boy is all dog-actually, all puppy. Boundless energy and a bundle of love, it's unclear whether TIGER enjoys playing or being loved on more. He weighs 36 lbs and has some growing to do. TIGER loves everyone and makes friends with everyone he meets. He melted the hearts of all the people he met at the vet when he went for his first check up. He’s good with kids, little and big ones, adults, and other dogs. We don’t know about cats. He will need training because although he will sit on command, he thinks a table is for surfing and people are for jumping. He’s the cutest busybody and while he might not keep your secrets safe (he likes to talk), he’ll pay attention to what you tell him.

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 Pit Bull Terrier is a resilient and loyal breed known for its muscular build and loving nature. Originally bred for bull baiting and later dog fighting, Pit Bulls today are beloved family pets cherished for their gentle temperament and playful personality. With proper training and socialization, Pit Bull Terriers make affectionate companions that thrive on human interaction. Recognized for their strength and agility, these dogs require regular exercise and mental stimulation to channel their energy positively, reinforcing their reputation as devoted and trainable pets.
