My story

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

Tyson is a wonderful, 7-year-old Boxer-Pit Mix we welcomed at 9 months, and he has been a wonderful, obedient pet. He is an incredibly affectionate boy whose favorite things are snuggles and being with his people, though he can be overexcited when greeting. He requires little activity, crates very well (often hanging out in his open crate!), and is trustworthy alone in the house. We are rehoming him because new family dynamics, including a grandbaby, means he is receiving less attention and needs a calm environment to truly thrive. We are seeking a quiet, loving family who can provide him with the focus he craves. He is neutered with no medical issues, is good with small dogs, and is comfortable with both unfenced and invisible yards. Please note he is somewhat protective of his home and barks at visitors/cars. We are confident he will be a devoted companion in a peaceful setting. We desire to see Tyson with his new family by mid-December for Christmas 2025 .
