Our Success Stories
Zeke
What a cute bundle of energy this
guy is, and boy oh boy, is he a lucky dog!!!
Zeke was a 7-9 month old owner surrender. His owner could no longer keep him
in her current living arrangement and contacted Boxer Rescue to find him a good
home. When we originally picked him up, we had a few questions about his temperament.
You see, he growled at us and was rather reluctant to "warm-up" to
us. We felt he would need substantial obedience and socialization work if he
was going to be adoptable. He was placed in a foster home with a very caring
and consistent "mom" with her two boxer girls. It was here that Zeke
realized that people are good and really fun to be around...nothing to fear
or shy away from. He also learned great socialization skills from the boxer
big sisters.
Zeke was placed in his forever home
in late January 2000 and has been a dream for his loving family. Everyone is
getting along well and Zeke continues to grow and amaze his family. They reported
that he is a "GENIUS." They were amazed to find Zeke doing so well when
it came to going outside to potty. On one occasion, Zeke walked into the room
carrying his leash and then proceeded to lead his family to the door. When they
leashed him and took him outside, he immediately stopped, squatted and did his
business. What a smart cookie!!
We know that Zeke will be very happy!
