Even at 71 pounds I am a typical young boxer who is all about having fun! I used to spend a lot of time in the yard which was boring and lonely for me. Not to mention scary at night! I don't want to be a yard dog, I want to be a people dog!
I am house trained, crate trained, and leash trained. In fact, my foster mom can walk all three of us pups and she says I am the easiest one! I have learned to sit on command and am now working on 'down'. I just love to make my people happy! I am a super fun and obedient boy that loves to give kisses and make you laugh with my goofy antics. I like to play fetch and am very consistent about returning the toy and holding until you take it from me.
Recently I had the opportunity to be around a 3yo girl. She was real sweet but not too interested in playing with me and would push me away. I did not react in any way negatively toward her. She did like my toys though and was constantly taking them out of my mouth. I was a very good boy and simply let her have what she wanted.
I am doing okay with the cats that live here. We have gone nose to nose a few times and I don't react or chase. But these cats were raised with dogs so that helps a lot. I have been known to get extra wiggly and excited around men and boys, probably because my previous best friend was a guy.
I have lots of love and adventure locked up inside. If you want a new best friend, Archie is your boy!
