Cerbie Boxer & Beagle Mix Hickory, NC

Meet Cerbie, the pint-sized powerhouse of sweetness wrapped up in 54 pounds of love! Don’t let her sturdy Boxer-Beagle mix physique fool you—Cerbie is knee-high and perfectly sized for snuggles!

At 1.5 years old, Cerbie is a bit of a wallflower at first, but with a sprinkle of patience and a dash of trust, she’ll bloom into the sweetest companion you’ve ever met. Think of her as the shy friend at a party who turns out to be the funniest, most loyal one in the group once they warm up.

Cerbie is a social butterfly when it comes to other dogs and would thrive with a confident canine sibling to show her the ropes. She’s also good with cats, proving that she’s an all-around team player. Kids? Absolutely! She’s a gentle soul, but her shyness means she’d do best with older kids who understand that true love takes a little time.

Her hobbies include shadowing her favorite humans, perfecting her soulful puppy-dog eyes, and offering quiet companionship that feels like a warm hug. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or a cozy Netflix binge, Cerbie is all in.

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving sidekick who’s the perfect mix of sweet and shy, Cerbie is your girl. Apply today to meet this knee-high bundle of love and get ready to welcome home your new best friend!

All known information about an individual dog is provided in its listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters should understand that each home is different and the dog may behave differently in a new home. Dogs are creatures of their environment and you help make the dog what it will be. Homes considering adopting a puppy must be prepared for 1.) Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only hold it for one hour per month of age (i.e. a 4-month-old puppy can only go 4 hours without a potty break). 2.) Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise. 3.) Socialization. The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home. 4.) Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well-adjusted dog. Patience is required and when your dog's behavior is a positive experience for you and those around you, your patience will be rewarded ten-fold, for years to come. Please do not consider adopting a puppy if you have not thoroughly thought through the pros and cons of having one. So many people end up returning them after 3-5 months because they didn't realize the amount of work involved in raising a puppy. Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are all musts. All are time-consuming and can be expensive. All dogs require supervision with children and obedience training. Adopters that want to have good dogs must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog. Any dog requires work and effort, but a well trained, well-socialized dog is more than worth the effort to get them there.
