About Shelly

Shelly is a charming 5-month-old female boxer mix, overflowing with sweetness and the joy of being a puppy. She's house trained; the first thing she does outside is take care of business, making her low-maintenance and ready to enjoy the day. In her foster home, Shelly plays well with other dogs, including a 75-pound Lab/Pointer mix, showing her friendly demeanor. While she's playful and happy, new situations can make her a bit nervous, causing her to seek comfort behind your legs, though she quickly gains her confidence back. Shelly thrives in environments with a fenced yard to keep her safe while she explores. Weighing in at a solid 20 pounds, Shelly is on track to become a medium-sized dog. She is up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, and dewormed, but she will need to be spayed at six months.
