Drax

The rescue’s notes on Drax

PUPDATE 3.22.26 PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES: I'm a 7-year-old male with a black and gold brindle coat, topped off with snazzy white boots, a chest, and a dashing mask tipping the scales at 85-90 pounds of pure charm. I was a bit weak in the back end coming into rescue but now I'm almost superhero strong! Oh, and did I mention that I'm a stunner! TEMPERAMENT: Got a playful spirit? Me too! I’m a bundle of joy with a sweet nature and a brain that soaks up new tricks faster than a sponge. Sometimes, I opt for my crate for a snooze. I'm pretty clever, I bag of tricks includes, "sit", "wait", "kennel", and occasionally "lay". I’m a gentle treat taker and playtime with pals is my jam. No need to worry about me being possessive; I’m as chill as they come with space, toys, food, and water. Plus, I stroll like a pro without tugging on the leash! QUIRKS I’M POLISHING: New places can make me jittery, so I need a couple of days to get my groove on. Initially, I might pant like a marathoner, leading to a water guzzle and, well, frequent bathroom breaks. But once I’m comfy, all that disappears. I'm also learning to keep all four paws on the ground, and my foster bro is teaching me the art of toy play. NEW TO RESCUE: Simplest way to describe me is like Rainman..... so smart, yet a few cards shy of a full deck. I'm playful, happy, calm, fun, and easy to train. If you want to play (tag and boxing my humans are fave games), I'll play. If you want to relax, I'll relax. I like kids, dogs and birds. I'm excellent on leash when it's just us, but get overly excited when I see others and will pull. I'm housetrained, but do occasionally have an accident as I'm water obsessed. I'm from a boxer breeder, I just have wonky ears...I swear I'm full Boxer!
