Venus is an adult classic fawn female with natural ears and a cropped little nubbin. :o) She comes from a breeding operation, so she was bred, she lived outdoors, and this change of living indoors is rather scary to her. She is the timid one of the two sisters, and the least likely to come up to us for loving, YET. She is SOO sweet, and docile, she is just unfamiliar with all the new noises and sounds of living indoors.

She has by far, the most pitiful looks that a boxer can give you. She has somewhat droopy eyes and she'll just hang her head and look so sad. We are working on building up her confidence. She is sleeping quietly in a crate at night and has yet to have an accident in the house. We are very regimented about taking them out and giving the "go potty" command and just waiting until they do so, even if it takes a long time!! Then you praise the heck out of them and they start to get it right away.

Venus will be available after April 28th, but it's likely we'll want to give her more time in rescue to learn things. We will update her bio with her progress. If you are interested in her, you are welcome to apply and when she's ready, you'll have everything completed. Venus' adoption donation will be $225.00

Willow is an adult classic fawn female with natural ears and a cropped tail. A nub of a cropped tail. It is so cute to see that little nub wagging away when she's excited. She is a VERY outgoing girl. LOVES everyone, especially men. Loves to play with toys, race through the house and steal my shoes. She is wasting NO time, in getting to know the basics of living indoors. She does not seem that inimidated by it, but she still is anxious, and in her pictures she was terribly nervous. I'll retake the pics of Venus and Willow after they've settled in. This was there first day here and they were terrified to be on a leash, for one thing, and then have a camera flashing in their faces.

Willow is learning the "go potty" command fairly fast. She is so eager to run and leap and play, she wants to get her business out of the way. She adores her sister and has been perfectly fine with some of the other dogs she has met so far. She's lived with females and males her whole life. Out of the current three that arrived, she will be the one that will be available for adoption first. We just need to get some basic obedience and house training skills down. She's already sleeping quietly through the night in her crate. It took a couple of nights, but now she settles right in. She roars out in the morning, leaping through the air with happiness and ready to run outside to do her thing. She does one thing that has been so typical of dogs that have lived in breeding operations. She noses all of the food out of her dish. Right now both Willow and Venus are fed in their kennels, just while we go through our assessment time. She likes to dump her food on the bottom of hers...I dont' know if she's telling me that she'd rather have some home cooking, or what that means. She did get a dinner of hamburger and rice and noodles one evening and seems to want to go back to that. :O) She is all sweetness and cuddles. She'll make a great pet for some happy family. Willow will be available for adoption after the 28th of April, if we feel she is ready. Willow's adoption donation will be $225.00
