Boxer Dogs Available for Adoption in Springfield, Missouri

Royal presence, loyal heart, and just the right amount of goofy charm—that’s the kind of ruler I am 👑. Pharaoh is my name, and at 7 years old and 61 pounds, I’ve mastered the art of balancing playful energy with expert-level lounging. I’m house-trained, crate-trained, and leash-trained, so I already know how to live like a proper gentleman inside a home. Commands are taken seriously in my kingdom. I know “sit,” “shake,” and even “other one” when it’s time to switch paws. Mealtime is a full ceremony—when you say “sit” and “wait,” I’ll lock eyes with you and hold that stare until I hear the magical “ok.” Patience and discipline are kind of my thing. I’m not overly energetic, but when the mood hits, I can get a little wild—classic boxer style. Most of the time, though, I prefer lounging like royalty and soaking up attention. Honestly, I could spend an entire day napping right next to my people if you let me. I’m a total lover and personal space doesn’t mean much to me because I always want to be as close as possible. If I could crawl into your skin for cuddles, I probably would. I’m smart, I listen well, and I pick up on routines quickly. I’d do best with a fenced yard where I can stretch my legs and enjoy the outdoors—especially in the snow. A home where someone is around often, like a work-from-home human or someone retired, would be perfect for me. I don’t need kids, but I do really love older ones. I’ve got a goofy side too—sometimes I like to grab shoes during playtime, and I have a way of making people laugh without even trying. Loving, funny, and full of personality, I’m ready to rule my forever home with heart and humor 🐾

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.
