Cosito is a three-and-a-half-year-old boxer mix with energy to burn and a huge heart. If you’re looking for a partner in adventure, he’ll keep up—whether it’s a day at the beach or a brisk walk at the lake. Cosito's happiest when he’s in the water or being pampered, but he settles in just as easily for couch cuddles and downtime with his people. He’s already nailed his potty training, so you don’t have to worry there. One thing to know: Cosito does have some special needs when it comes to his environment. He has a knack for jumping fences, so he needs a very secure yard with supervision. He’s dog selective, so careful, slow introductions work best. He’s not a fan of cats or kids and needs an adults-only home. On leash, he can be strong and reactive—he’ll thrive with an experienced adopter who isn’t shy about providing consistent training and guidance. Cosito brings out laughter with his spunky, goofy spirit, and once he bonds with you, he’s loyal for life—a gentle giant under all that playful energy.
