Adopt: Sherwin the Beaming Boxer Mix

By: Renée Orcione

​If you’re looking for a happy, loyal companion who loves to give kisses, look no further. Sherwin, the young boxer mix with the beaming smile, would make the perfect addition to your family!

Sherwin would love to end up in a home where he is allowed to be his active and energetic self. Spending time at the dog park and joining his humans on hikes are some of his favorite activities. He makes a great work companion, according to his current foster who brings him to work every day. This social boy loves being able to interact with humans and dogs all day long, but at the end of the day enjoys a good snuggle on the couch and even sleeping in the bed with you!
​
Sherwin doesn’t need much to be happy; he enjoys the simple things in life! A perfect day for him would start with sleeping in, taking some time to stretch, and then having a yummy breakfast. After that, he would enjoy a walk and some playtime with other pups before a mid-day nap. Later, he’d love to take a trip to the dog park or a romp in the yard to chase a Frisbee or tennis ball. If he had his way, Sherwin would include rolling around in a mud puddle to his perfect day. He loves getting a bath…as long as the hairdryer and towel massage is included! To end his dream day, all Sherwin would need is some cuddle time – he makes the best little spoon!

If he could win an award, it would be for his uncanny ability to fall asleep in any position. Whether he is propped up on the arm of the couch, completely sprawled on his back, or curled into a little ball, this guy can sleep anywhere and he sure looks cute while doing it! When he gets out of bed or off the couch after a nice sleep, he slides down with his back legs fully extended behind him. If there was a song to describe Sherwin, his current foster said it would be “Slip Sliding Away”, by Paul Simon. One of Sherwin’s favorite activities is to run and slide across wood floors chasing his toys!

Though Sherwin can sometimes be a goof, he is extremely intelligent and learns new tricks quickly. He is also fearless at walking through the city. He doesn’t let anything faze him: crowds, fire truck sirens or traffic.

Sherwin shines in many areas, but his current foster says, “Sherwin is the MOST cuddly and affectionate dog I’ve ever met. He loves to snuggle and give kisses!” This affectionate boy is just looking for someone to shower with love, apply today to meet him!
