Please contact Boxers In Need (boxersinneed@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet. If you are interested in any of Boxers In Needs Adoptable pets, you must fill out an adoption application at: http://boxersinneed.org/adoption_process/adoption_application.htm This handsome boy is Hunter, a 3-year-old neutered male boxer whose first owner found his high energy level and roughhousing a bit too much for her and her other pets to handle. He was also suffering from chronic diarrhea and was underweight, despite efforts by his owner to help him, and at 1-year-old only weighed 44 pounds. He was adopted by and has spent the last two years with a family who has helped him learn some basic house manners, had him neutered, and through a series of diet trials have managed to stop his diarrhea and help this gorgeous boy gain some much-needed weight. While his health and manners have improved greatly, the other dogs and small children in his home are proving to be a bit too much of a distraction for this gorgeous boy to finish his training, and his family feels the best thing for Hunter would be for him to find a home with fewer distractions so he can realize his full potential.
