Boxer mix Tilly is a lovable and energetic girl, doing a great job learning all about being a great friend! She is very bright and loves puzzle games with treats at the end. Tilly is generally food motivated - she even loves tomatoes for a special treat -can navigate stairs, sleeps through the night, and is respectfully playful with her grown-up foster brother. She even mastered "sit" in one day! She will tell you when she needs to go outside, and has also learned to use a pee pad in a pinch. While she loves learning and challenges, Tilly also loves a good snuggle with her people after some backyard zoomies.

Smart, fun, and cute as can be, Tilly will make a perfect new best friend!

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.
