About Flower

Meet Flower! Flower is a delightful 40-pound Boxer mix with a big heart and a charming belief that she belongs in your lap! This playful and cuddly girl revels in games of fetch and can often be found zooming around the backyard with her favorite toys. After a good play session, her ideal spot is snug against her human or curled up on their lap for a cozy nap. Smart and eager to learn, Flower already knows how to sit and is fully potty trained. She has adapted well in her foster home, making training a breeze. Flower has been wonderful with children. Her sweet disposition and patience shine through, especially with a 2.5-year-old, as she has never shown signs of aggression and is incredibly gentle. A quiet companion, Flower rarely barks. While she is kennel trained and can stay in her kennel during the day, she may express her displeasure at first, but quickly settles down. When it comes to other dogs, she can become excited when meeting them. Some barking and lunging have occurred during initial encounters, which her foster family is addressing through slow, positive introductions. Above all, Flower is a goofy, affectionate girl who longs to be close to her people. She enjoys both playtime and snuggling—ready to follow you around and then curl up for some downtime at day’s end. Flower is now seeking her forever family! Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
