About Timber Sue

Click apply to start the adoption process. Timber Sue is on the hunt for a peanut butter supplier with a comfy couch to share. This 100-pound Rottweiler/Boxer mix is packed with love, loyalty, and a hearty appetite for joy (and peanut butter). At 7 years old, Timber has two top priorities: a never-ending supply of peanut butter and your companionship (though snacks may have a slight edge). She’s the whole package—with a big, charming head, calm energy, and a quiet nature who only barks when it really counts (like snack time or when nature calls). Trustworthy and house-friendly, Timber is reliable if left out of a kennel and is happy to be your walking buddy or living weighted blanket. Single folks or couples are both welcome—Timber’s ready to be your loyal partner on trails or lazy days, and she’s been dreaming of finding her forever people. Just note that Timber is an only-dog queen: she doesn’t want to share snuggles, snacks, or emotional support privileges. She’s comfortable around children, but her impressive size means little ones may find themselves steamrolled with affection. If you’re craving unconditional devotion, endless snuggles, and a lifetime love affair with peanut butter, Timber Sue is more than ready to meet you. As a fun fact, her May 2nd birthday makes her a Taurus—no wonder she’s all about comfort, stability, and snacks! Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.

Questions about Timber Sue

What type of living environment is this breed usually best suited for?
Rottweiler/Boxer mixes typically thrive in homes with moderate space and a securely fenced yard, but they can also do well in apartments if given daily exercise and attention. They are happiest when they are with their people and included as part of the family.
How much outdoor space does this breed typically need?
A Rottweiler/Boxer mix benefits from having access to a yard but can adapt to less space as long as they receive daily walks and playtime. Regular exercise is important to keep them healthy and mentally stimulated.
Is this breed typically suitable for homes with children?
Boxer and Rottweiler mixes are generally affectionate and patient with children, but their size and exuberance mean supervision is recommended, especially around small kids. Proper introductions and teaching both the dog and children respectful interactions are key.
Is this breed usually better for first-time or experienced owners?
These mixes can be suitable for first-time owners who are prepared for a large, strong, and smart dog, but experienced owners may have an easier time managing their strength and assertiveness. Consistency and positive reinforcement training are important.

Rottweiler/Boxer mixes can be selective around other dogs and may prefer being the only dog in the home. Early socialization helps, but many are happiest as the star of the household.
Does this breed typically get along with cats?
This mix may tolerate cats if raised with them and properly introduced, but supervision is always advised due to their prey drive and size. Individual temperament plays a big role.

Rottweiler/Boxer mixes can be reserved but polite with strangers, often taking cues from their owners. They are naturally protective and will warm up with friendly introductions.
