07/18/12 Blitz, now 9 (AKA Diamond),
and Daisy, now 6,
are on their way back into rescue due to a divorce in their family.
Their new home has cats, and although Blitz is not doing badly with them,
Daisy has not been tried with them and is currently in a kennel. It
would be great if they could stick together, but that's more than we could
usually hope for when a pair comes into rescue. If per chance you have
a home and a heart big enough for two wonderful boxers, maybe you could be
their "real" forever home!

Diamond came to his new
foster home two weeks ago, and since then has made himself entirely at home.
His new name is "Blitz" (as in "lightning") and he perks up to it and comes
when called.
He's really motivated to learn with small pieces of sliced turkey, and he
knows "sit" and "stay." He gets along well with my 5-year old female, Leah,
who has been here almost a year now in her "forever home." He has his own
bed next to Leah's, and at bedtime he settles down easily for the whole
night. When he first arrived, he saw Leah sleeping in my reading chair. Now
it's his favorite spot in my office. Leah gracefully deferred to him and got
on a different chair instead.
He's friendly and loves getting attention. He's been playing with a few
toys (always new for puppy-mill rescues), and likes to play tug with me.
When he gets happy and wagging his tail, and his whole body too, he starts
going vertical. It's hard to describe, but he actually goes straight up by a
couple feet. Like I said, he's happy!
With the snow and ice, it's been difficult taking walks for the last
month or so. But he handles well on leash, and comes with me out to the
mailbox. I've tried walking both Blitz and Leah together, and they seem to
do fine. He's a pleasant, friendly companion.
Every bit a diamond, but with a lightning personality!

Diamond, who is now referred
to as BLITZEN, my Christmas Rescue. He is so unbelievably happy to be INSIDE
of a warm & cozy home. He LOVES sleeping on the bed and sofa. It is so funny
to see how quickly he adapted to life out of a rabbit hutch!! This guy is
ridiculously sweet. Please do not be distracted by his "bad ear job"
Blitazen has more love then he know what to do with!! He plays with his
foster brother and sister so nicely, and he is really getting the hang of
the potty training business!!! Please come and meet him. I bet you fall in
love like I did :)

Meet Diamond...a deep fawn colored boxer with dark eyes and a lot of
spirit for playing and running. He was recently surrendered by the puppy
mill owner who is closing up shop due to the new PA state laws. He was
surrendered along with his mate, Lucy recently.
He is very friendly and loves to jump up and down as if he had springs on
his feet. He is a good leash walker and easy to befriend. Please consider
foster or adopting this sweet boy! He deserves a good life! |
