Sparkles's Story

Sparkles<br/><br/>3 YO<br/><br/>36 Pounds<br/><br/>Dog Friendly<br/><br/>Crate & Leash Trained<br/><br/>Fostered in Lake Forest Park, WA<br/><br/>Hi, I'm Sparkles! I am a bundle of love, weighing in at just 36 pounds. While I may be shy at first, I warm up quickly to show you my sweet, gentle personality. I have all the fun Boxer traits—playful, goofy, and I even do the kidney bean dance complete with tail wags when I'm happy to see you. All I want is to be loved on, there is no such thing as too much love and attention for me. I am currently living with a Boxer brother that I really enjoy playing with. I usually have some sort of toy near by and will gladly engage in play once I'm comfortable with you.<br/><br/>I like to be outside at home, this is where I feel most confident, and so far, the PNW rainy weather hasn’t gotten me down. I am working on building up my confidence so when I leave the house and go for walks, they feel less intimidating. I am getting used to being in and around crowds and learning that not all loud noises are scary. My foster mom really wants me to "sparkle", so she has been patient with me, goes slow, and offers encouragement with lots of treats during our walks. This helps me feel more assured, and I make progress each time.<br/><br/>My ideal home would be with another male dog, who is confident and can be my bud. I would also gladly take all your attention as an only dog and be your forever cuddle buddy and companion. I know most of the important manners like "sit", I do well on car rides and will sleep quietly in my crate. Though I am gentle with kids, I would be happiest in a home that is on the quieter side and predictable. Once I trust you, my full personality comes out at full speed. If you are an active patient family that is looking for a companion to snuggle, love, and be an absolute darling in your life, click my link so we can meet!<br/><br/>If you would like to adopt her, fill out an adoption application on our website www.nwboxerrescue.org<br/><br/>Like us on facebook for more photos of this pretty girl, as well as other boxers we have available! www.facebook.com/northwestboxerrescue

Northwest Boxer Rescue's Adoption Policy
We'd like to tell you about our Adoption Process. First, all of us at Northwest Boxer Rescue are volunteers and no one is paid.

Completing an application is the first step in adopting a boxer from NWBR. We try to respond to the request as soon as possible and contact you by phone once we have received the application. Tell us what dog you are interested in on the application. We are glad to answer any questions you have. We want to get to know you and make sure the dog you adopt is the right wiggle butt, not just a dog.
