Boxers in the Snow!

I'm not too thrilled with all of this snow in North Texas, as you can see.  However, as you will see, lots of the other Legacy Boxers love it!


This is Dudley (white boy) and his sister, Roxy.  They think that snow is super!  Dudley was adopted by LBR volunteer, Terri.  


These cuties are Freckles (white), Dixon and Helen.  Freckles was adopted by her foster mom, Lorie.  Dixon is still looking for his forever home.  Helen is a Legacy Keeper.  That means she gets to stay the rest of her life with her foster mom, because she has tumors that are inoperable.



Schatzie got adopted by LBR volunteer, Susan.  She wasn't too sure about the snow, but she figures that running makes it better.  


This is Stark and his forever dad, Zach!  


This is Sky.  He is part of the Boxer Gang.  His dad, Jeff, has a whole gang of foster and forever boxers!


This video shows Rex and Connor (and their non-boxer siblings - lol).  Rex was adopted by LBR volunteer, Leslie.  Connor is still searching for a forever family.  Connor is the skinnier boxer.


The LBR boxers love the snow!  I was feeling a little lonely in the snow-hating department, until I saw Magnum.  He prefers to stay out of the snow, like me!


Then I saw this picture of Ivan, and I knew that there are some wise boxers like me out there!  Ivan was adopted by LBR volunteer, Mel.

Public Service Announcement

I have discovered something about the other dogs that live here and wanted to share my knowledge. They are really gulliable.

I mean really, really gulliable. It is so very easy to get what I want with them. Playing with a toy, chewing on a bone, sleeping on my bed? No Problem!

You need to have your innocent face down just right. Like this.




















Then I simply find another toy to play with and when they drop the toy to come investigate I take it. Works great with chews too, see?















Sleeping on a bed that I want to sleep on? Just go find a human to play with and sure enough they jump right up. Then I just go curl up and snooze.
















Works every time. They just aren't that bright.

Kotton and Indica Want YOU!

I want to introduce you to two special boxers.  Kotton is a handsome white male boxer. He came to LBR with his mom Indica when their family got divorced. Their mom tried to keep them, but she had to move back home where they were not allowed to live with her. 



Indica loves all the toys, but give Kotton a ball and he’ll be entertained for hours. They are crate trained and like to share a crate to snuggle in when their foster parents are away. 


They are both very vigilant in protecting the home against those darn squirrels.  They are both very agile as they can jump at least 6 feet in the air! This is especially good when stealing kisses!  Their foster dad calls them Pinky and the Brain. He tells me that Kotton is Pinky but that’s just because he's happy go lucky and since he's white he tends to be on the pink side. 



We hope you will consider adopting them to be part of your family, as they have lots of love to give. All they have ever known is each other, and LBR would like to adopt them as a set, but at a single adoption price. Ask to meet Indica & Kotton and, I promise that they will be the easiest, most fun and most loving family members you will ever have!

Whatever! Jellybean...


Yea, you heard me. I say "Whatever" to Jellybean because she knows I could catch her if I wanted to!

I just let her win because she's a "girl" and Mom says I need to use all my energy to grow hair.

Speaking of hair - WOW! Look at all my pretty hair! When I first came to my foster home, I didn't have any hair. Well, I did have one tiny patch of hair left on the back of my neck, but that was it. And it was SO cold with no hair in the winter. Mom bought me some really cute shirts to wear so that when the cold blasts of air hit me when I went outside to potty, it wouldn't hurt so much. I used to cry when I had to go outside, but not anymore because I have HAIR! Lots of beautiful, brindle and black hair. There isn't a spot on my body that doesn't have hair anymore. What a relief. Since it's been so cold out this winter, having my hair back has sure helped a lot.

Mom says I should show you what I looked like before. That was me the first day I got to my new foster home. See my cool shirt? I had never been allowed inside before, but obviously it didn't take long to figure out that being inside and warm is the place to be.


So, don't believe Jellybean's lies. She's fast and she can jump really high, but I'm bigger and sweeter and my brindle hair is prettier than her brindle hair. Mom says we shouldn't bicker about such things. She says that if we're really good and keep learning new things and getting better, that someone will want to adopt us and love us forever.

I'll be waiting right here on my soft pillow until then.






Naptime. I'll write more later.
Slurps and Wiggles,
Keebler ....z z z z z z z z z z z

Jellybean Here!


Hi Everybody!

It's me, Jellybean. Just stopping by to say hello. Mom took a picture of me riding in the car after I got to go visit some people a couple of weekends ago. She tells me all the time how pretty I am.


That was a very busy day! I had lots of fun and it was nice getting out of the house for the day. I got to play with a puppy and show him how fast I can run and how high I can jump. He wasn't impressed. I could give flying lessons if I just had some wings.


Hopefully I'll find a family soon that will appreciate my gazelle-like leaping abilities. Mom says that I'm so funny and I make her laugh with the way I run in big, leaping circles around the yard with Keebler trying to catch me.


She says if he ever catches me, I'm in trouble!


Whatever. I say "Good luck with that, Keebler!"


Slurps and Wiggles,

Jellybean


Puppies are HERE!


Isis had 3 of her puppies yesterday, but my mom starting fretting yesterday evening because she said there were two puppies that didn't want to come out. I don't get that, we have chicken jerky here! They should come out and have some with me!! Mom said the vets had to do something called a sea section to get the other two to come out. I hope they all got chicken jerky after that! Mom also says the sea section was really expensive, she said it was 2.5K, but I don't know what that is? It sounds like a lot of chicken jerky though!

Here's a picture of mom and the three babies that came out on their own. Aren't they cute?
