Christmas loot!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas! Cinderella, Mom, and I all packed up and headed to my Grandma and Grandpa's house for Christmas. We got to play with my cousin Bear (my uncle's dog) and my aunt Gracie (Grandma & Grandpa's dog). Plus, on Christmas morning we had a ton of pawsome presents! Lookit! (Oh, and Mom says sorry about the bad pictures, but she forgot her camera and could only take pictures with her phone. Sheesh, Mom!)


Okay, they're not all for me. They're for me, Cinderella, our kitties, Gracie, and Bear. But I helped Mom open most of them! Here's Cinderella playing with some cool toys from our Aunt L.


Mom got pretty new ID tags for me and Cinderella. I already looked pretty darned handsome, but with the new bling, I'm almost too good-looking to be allowed! (No, boxers don't have modesty problems. :))


Cinderella liked hers because it was pink and sparkly. Hmph, girls!


Grandma and Grandpa gave us cool toys too! The fox is mine, and Cinderella got a rabbit. (The duck in the background is my cousin Bear's. I picked it out for him because I have one at home that I play with lots!)


I hope everyone's Christmas was as much fun as ours! Now I think I need to sleep for a few months straight to recover from all the excitement.

Merry Christmas!

A very merry Christmas to all our readers and fans out there! This is going to be my last post until after Christmas, so I wanted to make it extra-special. First, I wanted to wish a very special little lady a merry Christmas.
LBR foster Tuscany has been staying with us this week, and we LOVE her! She came to us really scared, but she started to relax and realize she was finally safe and part of the LBR family. I wish she could stay with us for always (so does Mom!), but Mom's taking her today to her new foster home. I know Santa Paws will find her there and make sure she has a wonderful Christmas. As soon as she gets the yucky wormies out of her heart, she'll be ready to look for her own furever home. I know she's going to get the most specialist one out there, because she's such a special dog!!

Next, I have an awesome announcement. Do you remember earlier this week when I showed you a picture of LBR foster Doc Holliday? Well, now that should be LBR alum Doc Holliday! Yup, Doc got his very own furever home for the holidays. His new mom is awesome and loves him SO much. Here's Doc's happy holiday.



Finally, my sissy Cinderella and I want to wish all of you a very merry Christmas, a happy new year, and a just really wonderful holiday season no matter what you celebrate. I'm so glad you've all made the Legacy Chronicles a part of your lives, and all the dogs here at LBR are grateful for your interest and support. Happy howlidays from my house to yours!

Love, Casey Claus and Cinderelfa

Pick a Picadilly!

If you're looking for a fabulous addition to your home for the holidays, I want to introduce everyone to our Dog of the Day, Miss PICADILLY!


Isn't she pretty? And she's sweet too! She's about four years old, and after a lifetime of living out in the Texas heat, she's finally learned what it's like to be inside. She's done very well on house- and crate-training. I hear she's been practicing extra hard so she can be the perfect dog for her new family.


She does really well with children, even very young children. A lot of us boxers can be a little too excitable for that! She also gets along great with other dogs, but not cats. (I don't blame her. I'm still trying to figure out what to do now that my kitty sister has decided she likes me!)


Pretty Dilly is patient and will do just about anything for your attention -- and some treats! Won't you please hep her get her Christmas wish of a furever family of her very own? Read more about Picadilly and fill out an adoption application at www.savetheboxers.com!

I'm back! I missed all of you, but boy did I have fun snuggling with Grandma and going on lots and lots of walks with Grandpa. Mom says she had fun on her cruise-thingy too, but I know she was just so lonely without us.

To celebrate my return, I have an incredibly special dog to talk to you about. Meet APACHE!!

Are you looking for your soul dog? Apache is a loving boy who’s looking for his own special forever home. He love’s people of all ages, & being near them most of the day. A person/family that is home most of the day would be his dream come true. He currently lives with 3 other boxers but his ideal home he would be the only pet. He didn’t have the best first 2 years of his life so now that his life is good, he wants to be spoiled & spoil his people right back. Some of his favorite things to do are snuggle, spoon with you on the couch, play ball & play with his rope toys. Oh & eat!! He loves breakfast & dinner time, he can get a little messy with that tongue but no need to worry, he’ll clean up after himself. He’s also a great shadow, you never have to worry what he’s up to as he’ll be right by your side.

He doesn’t know a lot of tricks or commands but he learns routine very quickly so we talk to him like he’s human & he understands. Sit is one command he is great at & every time he does it, he gets a very proud look on his face! He adores children of all ages & gets so excited anytime they come to visit him. He doesn’t mind the 4 year old girl that loves to chase him, use him as a step stool, as a recliner, or hug him until his eyeballs are about to pop out.


Apache has been with LBR for more than two years as he worked through some health problems. We thought he was going to be a Keeper for a while because of kidney problems, but now as long as he eats a special food he's fine! He really needs to be an only dog, though, and he absolutely deserves a fabulous home of his own. You can learn all about Apache at his page on www.savetheboxers.com.

Let's find Apache a home for Christmas!

Bon voyage!


It's vacation week! Cinderella and I are going to hang out with Grandma and Grandpa this week. It's going to be so much fun! I feel sorry for my mom. She's going to be SO lonely without us. She's going to try hard to have fun anyway on something called a "cruise". Pft. Can't be nearly as much fun as walks with Grandpa! Anyway, we'll see you next week with lots more pictures of pawsome LBR dogs. If you need your cute doggie fix in the meantime, check out www.savetheboxers.com for lots of great dogs in search of a home!

All I want for Christmas is TULIA!

Did you know that it's December already?! That means it's time for all the pretty lights to go up on the houses so we can have a nicely lit walk and time to start pretend-- er, being extra-good so that Santa Paws brings me some great things under the tree this year. Almost exactly three years ago, I got the bestest Christmas present any dog could ever get -- my own furever home! My mom adopted me just two weeks before Christmas, so I got to spend Christmas in my very own home. My special Christmas wish is that lots of my LBR cousins can get that awesome of a Christmas gift too!

So to kick off the Christmas season, I want to talk about a very special dog. The beeYOOtiful Miss Tulia!


My mom just loves Tulia, and after every pet fair she comes home smelling like she's been loving on Tulia an awful lot. (Maybe I should be worried!) But Mom says that Tulia is just so sweet and snuggly and lovable that you can't help but cuddle her all the time.


Tulia is about two years old and a big, goofy boxer gal. She has the prettiest brindle fur and eyes that Mom says are almost as pretty as mine. She's very well behaved, and even though she didn't know any tricks before she came to LBR, she's already mastered sit, shake, and lie down. What a good girl! She loves to play with toys, especially her Kong Wobbler, and she's even a good girl in her crate. This girl's the whole package!


Tulia told me that she wrote a big long letter to Santa, asking for her very own furever family for Christmas. She's been such a good girl, I think she'll get it! If you think Tulia is the gal for you, check her out on www.savetheboxers.com and fill out an application today!

Boxers are a work of art!

My mom went to a really fun fundraiser for LBR last night. I would've liked to go too, but I can't quite manage to work a paintbrush with my paws! See, it was a painting party at a place called Let's Art in Plano, Texas. They sketch out a design on the canvas for you, then guide you through getting the colors and the shading and stuff right. Since this is LBR and our volunteers can't seem to think of anything besides their babies (and rightly so!), we got them to put together a cute drawing of a boxer. You could have cropped or natural ears, and then you could modify the colors and stuff to paint your own dog. How cool is that?

Everyone worked very hard to get it right.


This is our Pack Leader, Auntie Sharon, working on a portrait of her Booker. Isn't he handsome? (And if you look right next to her, you'll see my mom's masterpiece in progress!)

This is the whole pack! Wow, that's a lot of great looking boxers!


Here's my mom with her great masterpiece. Since she already has a big canvas portrait of me (from when I was in the calendar two years ago), she decided to paint my sissy Cinderella. I think she did a pretty good job!
