Hi! My name is DiMaggio, and much like my famous baseball player namesake, I'm a guaranteed homerun! Why don't you click here and let me tell you a little bit more about myself. I'm sure you'll agree that I will be the perfect addition to your team!

 

So my story starts way down south of Houston, in a town called Kingsville, Texas. I was roaming the streets of Kingsville, when some people found me and turned me into Animal Control as a stray. Now I'm not gonna lie, life on the streets was hard. I mean really hard! You see, not only did I not have anybody to love me and take care of me, I had trouble finding the basic necessities of life, like food, and shelter. Even though it was hard, I tried to stay safe, and at least I knew that I had my freedom. 

 

Now, to most other dogs being turned into the shelter seems like the very worst thing that can happen, but for me it turned out to be a blessing. Because when the people at the shelter got to know me a little bit, they learned how loving and affectionate I am. They also learned that I am smart and a wonderful wiggle butt! I don't want to brag, but I'm such a good wiggle butt that my tail wags my whole body!

 

Anyway, I digress. Long story short, once the volunteers at the shelter fell in love with me, they just knew they had to network me and get me out of there! So some very kind people who I can't thank enough, networked me all the way up to Houston where I could be a foster and a part of Houston Boxer Rescue. And let me tell you, life has been great ever since!

 

Since joining HBR I have gotten into a wonderful foster family. And can you believe it, I get to live inside! And even better yet, I always get fed. And as equally important I get lots of love, and pets, and TLC. Oh! And do you know what else? They even give me treats and they taught me about something called toys! Who knew?!?!

 

Seriously, I've already learned how to be part of a family. I love my foster fur siblings, and I especially love my two legged foster human siblings. We have so much fun together! We play, we snuggle, and then we play some more!

 

Well, since it's looking like we might be teammates, I want to be completely honest with you. I'm not perfect. I do have some faults and every now and again I swing and I miss. Let's just say I'm still learning all of my good manners. My foster mom is all the time telling me, "Manners matter!" She says part of being a family, or a team, is knowing when to do the right thing. And I'm still learning that. For example, I like to jump up on your lap to snuggle. I also sometimes confuse shoes and toys. But I am quickly learning! My foster mom says with a little more love and training, I'm going to master my manners fast!

 

The other thing I'm really working on, is not wanting to eat everybody's food. Sometimes it's hard for me to remember that I'm not on the streets anymore and that my next meal is guaranteed. So if I see one of my foster fur sibling eating a treat, or eating their dinner, I sometimes want to go and take theirs too. However, with a quick reminder from someone in my foster family I'm able to get right back in the game!

 

Well, that's it. Now you know everything about me and how I ended up here, trying out to be the next MVP of your team. So what do you say? Why don't you draft me to your team, and together we can hit a grand slam!
