Malcolm's Story

Malcolm is a 14 year old, 26 lb Beagle/Boxer mix with the perfect blend of independence, sweetness, and senior dog charm!<br/><br/>Quick Facts:<br/><br/>Name: Malcom<br/>Breed: Beagle/Boxer mix<br/>Age: 14 years old<br/>Weight: 26 lbs.<br/>House-Trained: Yes<br/>Crate-Trained: Yes<br/>Good with Dogs: Yes (great with dogs of all ages and sizes!)<br/>Good with Cats: Not yet tested<br/>Good with Kids: Yes (preferably respectful, calmer kids)<br/>Energy Level: Low - Medium<br/>Fence Required: No<br/>Dog's Location: Lillington, NC<br/><br/>About Malcolm’s Breed:<br/><br/>Malcolm had a previous DNA test done prior to his arrival at the rescue which showed he is a Beagle/Boxer mixed breed. Beagle/Boxer mixes are affectionate, people friendly dogs who blend the Beagle’s curious, gentle nature with the Boxer’s playful, loyal spirit. They’re typically social, easygoing companions who enjoy exploring, sniffing, and being part of family life. Many have a sweet, expressive personality and a balanced energy level—happy to play, but just as happy to relax with their humans.<br/><br/>Their ideal home is one that offers companionship, light activity, and a steady routine. Beagle/Boxer mixes thrive with families who appreciate a dog that’s both mellow and fun, enjoy short walks or gentle play, and want a friendly companion who gets along well with people and other dogs. They’re well suited for homes with respectful kids, friendly dogs, and adopters who enjoy a calm, loving presence in the house.<br/><br/>What to Love about Malcolm:<br/><br/>Malcolm loves being around his people and enjoys companionship when someone’s home, but he’s also perfectly content relaxing on his own. He’s wonderfully house trained, doesn’t chew or get into things he shouldn’t, and takes care of business quickly when taken outside. Despite his age, Malcolm is spry, alert, and full of gentle enthusiasm for life!<br/><br/>He’s fantastic with other dogs—big or small—and has a submissive, easygoing demeanor around them. He enjoys meeting dogs out and about and is always respectful and friendly. Malcolm would be happy with a doggie sibling or as your one and only. He’s been curious about outdoor cats and is open to a meet and greet with a cat in his future home. He’s great with all people, including kids, ideally those who are calm and respectful of his age. Malcolm is potty trained and crate trained, although you can leave him out to free roam since he is very respectful and not destructive at all.<br/><br/>At home, Malcolm loves toys, balls, and light play, but he’s equally happy being a couch potato. He’s the perfect mix of low key fun and mellow companionship—an ideal buddy for TV marathons, cozy afternoons, and short daily walks. If you’re looking for an easygoing, loving senior who asks for very little and gives so much, Malcolm is ready to be your loyal companion!<br/><br/>Malcolm’s Magnificent Highlights:<br/><br/>• 14 year old, 26 lb Beagle/Boxer mix with a sweet, mellow temperament<br/>• Independent but social — enjoys company but is perfectly content relaxing on his own<br/>• Excellent house manners — fully potty trained, non destructive, and quick with outdoor potty breaks<br/>• Great with dogs of all sizes; submissive, respectful, and friendly<br/>• Open to cat meet and greets after showing curiosity toward outdoor cats<br/>• Wonderful with all people including respectful kids<br/>• Low key toy lover who enjoys balls, gentle play, and cozy downtime<br/>• Perfect couch companion for TV marathons and relaxed afternoons<br/>• Short walk enthusiast who enjoys easy strolls and simple routines<br/>• Adaptable to many homes — great fit for busy families or quieter households<br/><br/>Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description. to ensure a smooth process, please submit a completed application through our website at: http://crisisdogsnc.org/dog-adoption/.
