About Cashew

Meet Cashew! This cheerful 1-year-old Boxer mix weighs in at 39 lbs and is all about spreading joy wherever he goes. With his playful grin, perked-up ears, and an ever-wagging tail, he lights up the room with his friendly nature. After being left at a park, Cashew found his way to a shelter, where his goofy personality quickly won hearts. He's a treat lover, especially when it comes to tasty pup cups! Cashew enjoys meeting everyone, including kids, and his confidence shines at adoption events. His favorite activities include walks in the park, playing fetch, and tugging with friends. Quick to learn, he's already mastered his commands and is making fantastic progress under a trainer's guidance, focusing on slowing down during playtime. Cashew recently healed from tibial repair surgery and is now cleared for all kinds of fun. He thrives in an engaging environment and would do best with a family committed to continuing his training. He'd also love to have another dog to play with. A perfect day for Cashew involves walks, some training, plenty of play, and then a long, cozy nap. He is house trained, crate trained, food motivated, and filled with personality. Cashew is currently in Houston but can be transported to the Northeast, Midwest, or Pacific Northwest for an additional fee. Ready to make Cashew part of your family?
