Patches - Pictures and Story

Hi, my name is Patches. I am a 2 year old white boxer boy.

When the animal shelter found me, I had some open wounds on my body. No one is sure what happened to me. They couldn't tell if I had be attacked by another animal or if something had spilled on me and burnt my skin. I was started on antibiotics because the wounds were pretty infected. But the wounds are almost gone and my hair is growing back! Yay! I look much better now.

Since I was so underweight when I first came into rescue, I've been pretty touchy with other dogs coming near my food. I'm afraid they may take it from me. So I may be best as an only dog so I don't have to share my food.

I am neutered and up to date on my shots.

My foster mom says I am real good boy, I don't get into stuff in the house, I'm house trained and crate trained. My foster mom has even started to leave me out of the crate when she goes away.

Oh! My foster mom reminds me to tell you I like to sleep on the bed, so if you need a bed warmer....I'm your guy!

If you have the love and the time for me please adopt me? Please go to Go Boxer Rescue to complete an Application to Adopt so they know you would like to adopt ME! Be sure to mention my name on the Application to Adopt. Remember, I'm Patches.

His skin is looking really good, the scabs are gone. He'll look a lot better one his hair grows back.
His tumor was not cancer.
He is no longer humping the other dogs. He is not doing well with the other dogs and food. I cannot pass out treats or even use treats to crate everyone. I have been keeping Patches and Raisin separated, the slightest little thing can set them off.

New photo.
The good news is that his hair is growing back nicely.
Even the shiny pink areas are getting a little fuzz.

Today I was in another room and I heard the beginnings of a fight. Yelling, I run to to the living room and see Bubbles, Raisin and Patches all in Patches' crate. Apparently he left a kibble of dog food in there.
Fortunately is was so crowded in there that the fight fizzled out.
Wish I'd had the camera tho.
This afternoon is was a great sunny day, so we took advantage of that outside.
