Wexford
About This Dog
Wexford's ideal home
Wexford is a wonderful 1-year-6-month-old Boxer who is currently thriving in foster care and has been an absolute pleasure to have around. He settled into his foster home quickly after exploring his new surroundings and is fully house trained, although he appreciated puppy pads during his first few nights while he found his feet. Wexford is a real foodie who enjoys his meals and takes treats gently, although he has been known to help himself to food left on the kitchen side! He loves affection and cuddles and will happily snooze at his foster carer's feet while they work from home. He enjoys being groomed, has happily had his nails trimmed, and while he can occasionally be a little head shy, he is a gentle and affectionate boy who forms lovely bonds with his people.
Could you be Wexford's perfect match?
Wexford is looking for an active family who can continue his training and help guide his enthusiastic young Boxer personality. He loves getting out for walks and happily enjoys an hour to an hour and a half each day, although he can be strong on the lead at first and, with his puppy brain still very much in gear, he can become excited and try to greet people by jumping up. He currently lives happily alongside a cat in foster, often choosing to sleep beside them, and is calm around other dogs, usually preferring to simply sniff and carry on with his walk. He has also met children aged 7–12 and has been instantly friendly, responding well when asked to sit or calm down, although due to his bouncy nature we feel he would be best suited to a home with secondary school-aged children or older. Wexford can be vocal when left alone, so any time on his own should be built up gradually. He is a delightfully affectionate, fun-loving companion with so much love to give, and whoever welcomes this special boy into their family will be gaining a truly wonderful friend.
