Hi everyone!  My name is Austin and I'm a 1 1/2 year old, male Boxer.  I hear that Austin is a very cool, happening, kinda place and I'm a cool, happening kinda guy!  I am a strong, confident type of dog.  Yet, very handsome if I do say so myself, in that my brindle coat just shines!

As you can see my original owner had a "crop job" done to give me classic boxer ears. Then they obviously flunked out on after care.  So, one ear stands, and well, the other one - doesn't.  I think it creates a very unique look that makes me stand out, like the special guy I am!

I am well mannered and even lay down while my leash is clipped onto my collar.  Then I walk calmly without pulling or acting out.  Riding in the car is taken completely in stride!  I may look out the windows a bit then settle right down for a nap.  I am potty trained, crate trained, and generally a GREAT GUY!

Playing fetch out in the yard is my idea of a day well spent!  I love running around, playing with other dogs, and my peeps.  Investigating my surroundings is a hobby of mine.  I like to check out every nook and cranny, not destructively, only because I am a curious guy!  However, I have been known to leave my (open) crate, clear a baby gate, and traipse up a steep flight of wood stairs all without disturbing my usually alert foster Dad.  Then, when he saw me on the stairs and said, "What are you doing?", I calmly reversed my route and was waiting in my crate by the time he got there!  Now, is that stealth mode, or what?!!

Please come over to meet me, I really am a wonderful guy that would make anyone a great companion!  I promise!
