Sweet Pea

Sweet Pea is a 7-month-old, 30 lb Boxer puppy who truly lives up to her name. She exudes innocence, gentleness, and a sweetness that melts hearts the moment you meet her. Sweet Pea came into rescue after she could not be sold by a puppy mill—and we’re so grateful she found her way to us, where she could finally be seen for who she is: a puppy who deserves love, patience, and a future full of joy. She was MRI confirmed to have Hydrocephalus, making her technically special needs, though to know her you wouldn't consider her to have any limitations from that.<br/><br/>Sweet Pea is silly, hilarious, loyal, and absolutely adorable. She is confident and snuggly in her foster home, but can be a little timid going new places. Sweet Pea is learning all the normal puppy things. She is working on crate training (she is quiet in her crate), and is making progress with potty training. She **loves toys**, happily chews on her Benebone, and has recently discovered how wonderful treats are. <br/><br/>Potty training can be a bit more challenging for dogs with hydrocephalus, and Sweet Pea is likely to have accidents if left for long stretches of time. Because of this, a home where someone is home more often for potty breaks to stay on routine, would be the best fit for her. She does go to ring the bells to go out sometimes as is picking up on it! She is also used to having a fenced in yard and isn't super confident with leash walking yet.<br/><br/>Sweet Pea is wonderful with other dogs and loves to play. A canine sibling would need to be tolerant of typical puppy antics and the classic Boxer pounce. She truly doesn’t have a mean bone in her body and approaches the world with curiosity and love. She’s curious with the kitty in her foster home, too. <br/><br/>Hydrocephalus does mean there are some unknowns in Sweet Pea’s future, but there could be unknowns in any dog's life if we're being honest. She has the potential to live a very normal life, but her forever family should be comfortable with the possibility of changing medical needs. She is on an affordable daily medication, which she takes easily when paired with cheese—her favorite delivery method. She sits politely and loves her cheese! <br/><br/>Sweet Pea is fully vetted at this time. All she needs now is the right family—one ready to love her exactly as she is.
