Six Boxer mix puppies are seeking a lifetime home. Melissa Ann (pictured) is a 9 weeks old female Boxer. She has one sister and four brothers. They were all born on May 20 (estimated). They are all fawn-colored; some have four white feet and white-tipped tails while several have only two or three white feet or no white tips on their tails. They are all a delight to behold! They are being successfully house-trained but a fenced yard is a must for these happy doggies.
If interested in giving Melissa Ann or one of her siblings a new home, please contact Janine Thompson of Precious Purrs and Paws, Inc. in Gloucester at (804) 693-0283.
