My name is PUFF... As in cream puff because I'm white, and after PUFF Daddy because I want to be rich!
I am a 3 1/2 month old Boxer boy and I'm ready for you! My story is that my family abandoned me at a shelter because they could not keep me. I do not know why they couldn't keep me, but I ended up there. Then, the nice folks from Houston Boxer Rescue stopped by and took me in the car and to the vet where I got all my shots and I'm about to get my neuter - whatever that is!
I am a special boy in that I'm deaf... I said, I'm DEAF! They say that it happens to some of us white guys... But, deaf or not I'm a sweet Boxer Boy and I'm ready to find a permanent home with a family that will love and accept me just the way I am.
Because i can't hear, it is very important for me to be in a home with a hearing dog. This is not only for companionship, but because I will depend on a hearing dog to be my 'ears' to the world around me. Watching what a hearing dog does will teach me how to live as a good citizen in your home, let me know when there are happy events, and warn me if there is danger!
Right now I follow my 'fur' foster family around and am doing well with potty training and crate training. Everybody says I am a sweet and loving boy. And, I can't wait to have my very own forever home!
Special Needs: Puff is deaf. He must be homed with a hearing dog to be his ears. This is essential to his sense of security and to help him learn by emulation.
