My story

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

Willow is a two year old boxer who has eyes that will absolutely melt your heart.

This sweet baby has literally been to heck and back. She came to HSOP emaciated and covered in sores, some of which appeared to be bites. None of that has affected her sweetness. She loved every person she met and is such a gentle walker on the leash, that my 7 years old was able to walk her. The downside is, that even though her physical wounds have recovered, she hasn't forgotten the source of some of them. Willow can't be around other dogs (or, to be safe, cats) as she reacts very strongly. She rides well in the car, has done well on outings including the Easter parade downtown!

I have to believe that there is a home out there for this beautiful girl that wants to make her their one and only. She gives the best hugs and kisses. Willow is also super smart and food driven, which means she'd be easy to train for tricks. I loathe with everything in me, the pain that this sweet girl has endured. What she deserves now is a family to love her for the rest of her life and spoil her so much that those first two years become a distant memory.
