Coby, boxer

Coby is a sweet male boxer dog currently residing at HO-BO Care Boxer Rescue.

Coby's ideal forever home would be a dog-free environment. Don't worry: He's already house-trained, vaccinated and neutered.

Meet Coby:

Good morning! My name is Coby, and I am affectionately referred to as The Morning Puppy. Not because I'm an actual puppy — I just like to wake up with you every morning and get all my energy out for the day right away! After that, I'm back to my eight-year-old self. And, eight-year-old me is pretty easygoing. I like to take walks, but slow walks where I can follow my nose are best. I'm an excellent napper, and will gladly test all the beds in the house to figure out which one is the comfiest. So, if you're in search of a companion, might I suggest me?

Notes from Charlie's caretakers:

Charlie is proving to be quite a goofball! He loves to play just as much as he loves to nap. He's curious and sweet — he always wants to know what you're doing, and if he can help. Charlie is such a sweet and happy boy with a wonderful disposition, and would love to find his forever home!

About Cairo:

Hello, I'm Cairo! I'm about two years old. I am really good about sharing toys with other dogs, and enticing my buddies to play with me. I love to be near my people. I walk well on leash, but generally like to be in the lead. What can I say, I'm an explorer! My foster mom says that I'm an incredibly wiggly and happy boy, and that I'm a master snuggler. I love getting belly rubs, and don't squirm when getting a bath or a nail trim. I'm ready for my forever home!

Get to know Sasha:

Hello friends. My name is Sasha. I enjoy playing with toys — especially a good game of tug-o-war! I know all of my obedience commands, including sit, down, shake and come. I'd love to find a family that will allow me to sleep in bed with them, so I can feel safe and warm. I love cuddling most of all, so as long as I have someone to cuddle with in my new home (human or canine!), I'll be a happy girl.

A few words from Mila:

Hi folks! My name is Mila, and I'd like to formally introduce myself. See, I'm a little nervous around new people, so a proper introduction is very important to me. The good news is that once you and I are buddies, I want to be around you all the time! I'll lean right into you to get my pets, and I'm very gentle, playful and loving. I'm looking for a family that is willing to accept that I still have some insecurities, and will work with me to overcome them. Patience and a little know-how go a long way with me! Underneath my fears and insecurities, I am a happy and wiggly boxer girl. I love to love, and can't wait to find a human pal that can see the potential in me.
