My story

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

Hercules the 3rd 👑💪
4-year-old Boxer | Adoption Fee Sponsored

Calling all Boxer people—yes, you. This is not a drill.

Hercules the 3rd is one of our longest residents and an absolute volunteer favorite, and honestly… we don’t understand how this majestic goofball is still here. He’s a gorgeous white Boxer, built like a Greek statue but operating with full cartoon energy.

In playgroups? Rockstar. ⭐
With other dogs? Lives for it.
Personality? Silly, goofy, clumsy, and charming in a way only Boxers can be.

Hercules is the kind of dog who will:
• Make you laugh daily
• Throw his whole body into everything he does
• Forget how long his legs are
• Look at you like you’re the center of his universe

He’s currently working on his manners (because Boxer), but he’s smart, eager, and absolutely worth the effort. He would love a home with dog friends and people who appreciate big personalities and even bigger hearts.

🚫 No cats—Hercules says “hard pass.”

✨ BONUS: His adoption fee is FULLY SPONSORED, so the only thing you need to bring is love, patience, and maybe a slobber towel.

Hercules the 3rd is ready to trade shelter life for a couch, a yard, and a family to call his own.
Where are his people? 🐶💙
