Feature Friday - Faith and Sookie

Posted by Righteous Hound on 14th Nov 2014

Meet two great senior boxers from our pawtner Atlanta Boxer Rescue looking for love:

Faith - 9 years young

Faith had quite the rough life before coming to ABR. She was found roaming the streets, severely malnourished and full of parasites. ABR volunteers worked incredibly hard to get her weight up and she is now happy and healthy, but longs for a forever family. Faith is completely crate-trained, leash-trained and house-broken. Faith minds very well, and has excellent manners on the leash and inside the house. Faith is okay around adults and kids. She is not great with dogs, but has done well when slowly introduced to older/calm male dogs. Faith would love nothing more than to find a forever home to go on long walks and relax with her humans. If you would like to know more about Faith and meet her, please ask for her on your application!


Sookie - 6 years young

Hi there, My name is Sookie! You may have noticed I am missing an eye, but that doesn't make me any less of a great dog. I was found after I was hit by a car but unfortunately, they were not able to save my right eye. Even though I am blind on one side, I have adjusted very well and don't seem to startle easily. I love going on walks and do so at a very nice pace in my harness. I’m potty trained, crate trained and know commands like sit, stay, shake, and up. When I get really excited I jump straight up and down like I'm on a trampoline. The higher I jump, the more I make my foster mom laugh. I am such a silly Boxer! I have a young Boxer sister at my foster home and I love playing with her. In my previous home I loved playing with my foster skin brothers and sisters and would even sleep with them at night and every time a child comes over to me I like to smother them with kisses. Since I am an alpha female I would be just fine by myself or with a submissive dog similar to my size where I can play rough and I can be the boss. My foster mom says I make a great guard dog and need slow introductions to new people and dogs. The folks here at Atlanta Boxer Rescue have noticed that I don’t seem to like strangers (especially men) approaching me while wearing sunglasses and/or a hat. It’s an odd quirk, but only I know the reason why. So if I sound like the dog for you, and I really hope I do, please mention Sookie on your application.
