Target, boxer mix

Target is a charming male boxer mix being kept at Last Hope K9 Rescue.

Target is a social animal, and he's happy to keep company with other dogs. He's already house-trained. He is already neutered and vaccinated. He is a special needs pet, so please inquire about his specific care requirements.

Notes from his caretakers:

Target is an adorable and goofy boxer mix. He was clumsy and confused when we first got him, so we had to teach him how to "doggie." He was fostered with several other deaf boxers who showed him along the way and taught him that the world was not a scary place. He has made great progress and would love to have a family to call his own.

Nilly Wafer, mixed breed

Nilly Wafer is a winsome female mixed breed dog staying at Last Hope K9 Rescue.

She will get along great with your other dogs. She's mastered her house-training etiquette. She is already spayed and vaccinated.

Here's what her friends think of her:

Nilly Wafer is an incredibly sweet and highly intelligent dog. She loves other dogs, and will sulk if we don't let her go out and play with her puppy friends next door. Outside of the house, she's got plenty of energy for puppy wrestling and zoomies (so a yard would be amazing for her, she loves running).

She wants to be right next to her human all the time, and getting pet is just heaven for her. Her foster home is quite busy, with guests in and out, and she pretty much begs for every one of them to pet her.
