My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

10-2 Update: There is not much to say about a "perfect dog" other than Luko is just perfect in every way! His foster Mom requested the assistance of the Boxer Club regarding whether of not they thought Luko was a pure bred. There unanimous answer is Yes! Luko is approx. 7 years old; potty trained, walks fabulously on leash (has obviously had training) and is just an all around wonderful man and he likes to give those boxer kisses!Though a large guy (approx 80 lbs), he is the most gently giant we've ever rescued! Luko has a docked tail and natural ears, is neutered and current on vaccins. He is great with young children, and other dogs, is easy going, and does enjoy play sometimes engaging the other dogs. Please visit www.fassasfriends boxerrescue.com to complete an Adoption application found on the website under the Adoption Tab. If you are already approved, simply email us at fassasfriends@gmail.com letting us know your name, that you are approved and would like to meet Luko. He is in excellent health and needs a fantastic home to compliment his fantastic disposition! For more on Luko see below or visit the Fassa's Friends website.

Update 9-9-15- Luko has been in his foster home now for about 2 months now and we are told by his foster peeps he is nothing short of PERFECT! He is great with other dogs; he is great with children (living with a 6 year old child). He has been neutered and is current on his vaccines. He walks fabulously on leash and enjoys a stroll around the neighborhood. Luko's foster home just can't say enough wonderful things about him! If you're looking for a great easy going, laid back, gentle giant, Luko is the guy for you!

*** The "jury" is out on whether or not Luko is a purebred....if not, he appears very close. Possibly mixed with St. Bernard? Possibly purebred. Your guess is as good as ours!) Please meet Fassa’s Friend Luko. Luko is a male, approximately 7 years young with natural ears and docked tail. He is current on vaccines and will be neutered very shortly. Luko’s owner had left Luko with a family member when he moved out of state. The family member could no longer care for Luko and had given him to a friend. After a short period of time, the friend decided to turn Luko into a local shelter. Many people do not realize the responsibility a pet is, nor do they do research on a particular breed of interest. Please consider both when thinking of adding a canine family member to your home.

Luko is a big guy, weighing in at 80 lbs. He is however a Gentle Giant in every sense of the word at this time. He is being fostered with 2 other dogs and a 6year old child. He is doing fantastic with all.

Luko walks well on leash, and at this time, does not appear to have a high prey drive. While on leash and on a walk, he and his foster Mom had seen a deer and her doe. Luko never gave either a second glance. Luko is potty trained. He knows the basic commands, “sit” & “paw.’ In fact it seems if you are a little too slow to give him a treat, he will paw your leg in the hopes of moving you along. For all of you who like the Boxer kiss? This is your man! Luko loves to give kisses!
