Meet Xena - Your Future Adventure Buddy! If your idea of a perfect Saturday involves hiking trails, playing endlessly with toys, or coming home to a "wiggle-butt" greeting that could power a small city, then Xena is the girl for you! At just 8 months old, Xena is a stunning Pocket Pitty / Boxer mix who perfectly embodies the best of both breeds: the compact, muscular frame of a Pitty and the goofy, high-energy "kid at heart" spirit of a Boxer.
Why You'll Love Her:
- The Ultimate Social Butterfly: Xena doesn't believe in strangers--only friends she hasn't kissed yet! She absolutely adores people and will be the first to greet guests with a wagging tail and a happy grin.
- Dog-Friendly Extraordinaire: She loves other dogs! Xena is always down for a wrestling match or a game of tag. She'd thrive in a home with another playful pup to help her burn off that puppy energy.
- Zest for Life: "Exuberant" is her middle name. Whether it's a trip to the park or a walk around the block, Xena approaches every moment with 100% enthusiasm.
Her Ideal Home:
- Xena is looking for a family that matches her "let's go!" lifestyle. Because she's still a young pup with a lot of strength and excitement, she'd be happiest in an active household that can provide:
- Daily Exercise: Think long walks, runs, or vigorous play sessions.
- Mental Stimulation: She's smart and eager to please--training sessions are just another fun game to her!
- Plenty of Snuggles: After a long day of adventure, she's a world-class cuddler who just wants to be near her humans.
Note: Due to her high energy and "zoomie" tendencies, she might accidentally knock over very small children, so a home with older kids or sturdy toddlers would be best! Xena did well when cat tested at the shelter but can be tested in more depth if you have a kitty in the home.
