3/10/12 Barron continues to do great
in his foster home. He has turned out to be quite the character. He has a
lots of energy for a 5 yr old - Barron must have gotten the energy from the
kids he was with. He loves to play and chase his tail and will back
into you for a butt scratch.
Barron is such an easy dog to care for. We let him out 1st thing in
the morning and when he is done with his business, he either can't wait to
run right back in the house or if something is distracting him, you just
call him and in he comes running in. He always lets you know he needs
something. The tricky part is figuring out what he wants. He
lets you know when he wants to go outside, when he is hungry, and when he
wants to play. Watch out when you are on the computer or sitting down
in a quiet room watching TV.. he sneaks up behind you and lets out a bark
that catches one off guard. We have many people over to play cards or
just get together and Barron has always greeted everyone with the same happy
attitude. We are working on him not sneaking up behind a card player
and doing the bark, but it has helped me win a few hands by distracting a
player. A butt scratch and a quick hug is usually enough to satisfy
him.
Barron is a great little guy and could use someone who can show him lots
of love and a calm voice. He loves to cuddle with you and wants to
always be as close as he can to you.

Barron has been in his foster
home 3 weeks now and I can report that the original update on him still
applies. He gets along just fine with my two Boxer boys, ages 8 and 6. He is
crate trained, but still needs a little coaxing at times with some treats.
Barron is house trained and lets you know if he's due for a bathroom break.
He walks well on the leash and does know his basic commands. Barron
can be a little headstrong and get a little excited when he plays, so will
need a firm leader to follow. That said, Barron does listen very well and is
a great little boy. He is your typical boxer that loves to cuddle with you.
Barron will make a great addition to any family. Apply today - Barron will
be waiting here for you to welcome him into your family for years of fun and
love.

It's rather unusual for us to
get a call from a shelter saying they have one of our dogs. It's rarer still
when the call comes from a shelter in Georgia. Barron was found wandering on
the side of a road outside Atlanta on Saturday night. The home he was
adopted to in 2009 had given him away to somebody she did not know instead
of returning him to the rescue. Thankfully, he still had his AABR tag on and
the shelter notified us right away. Barron will be transported back to the
northeast on Thursday and will be going to a foster home with three other
boxers. Once his foster home gets to know him better, we will submit an
update and new photos.

Hi folks - please meet Barron. His family is giving him up because they
just don't have the time to give him the exercise and attention he needs.
Barron is 2 1/2 yrs old, house & crate trained, knows all of his basic
commands, and is a very energetic, but well behaved young man. He has been
living with 3 children under the age of 6, and gets along well with other
dogs.
Thank you for your interest in Barron!
