Meet Yuli!
Yuli is a spirited five-year-old Boxer mix with a handsome brown brindle coat and white accents. He's a 90-pound sweetheart who is happiest when he's close to his humans, whether that means curling up beside you with his head in your lap or trotting along at your side with a rope toy in his mouth. Yuli thrives on routine and feels most secure when he knows what to expect. He truly bonds deeply with his people and benefits from calm, structured transitions.
Ideal Home
Yuli would thrive in a home with an experienced and patient pet parent committed to ongoing positive reinforcement and behavior support. He is best suited to be the only pet in a home with a fenced yard. He does best with adults and older children (ages 10+) who understand the art of a gentle pat rather than a tight hug, as he doesn't love being grabbed.
Ongoing Health
Yuli has a chicken allergy and requires a chicken-free diet tailored to support his sensitive skin. Otherwise, he is a healthy, happy boy.
Training & Support
Yuli is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows a full repertoire of commands, including sit, stay, off, leave it, and even spin! He is a true gentleman indoors and knows the difference between chew toys and furniture, although he is a self-proclaimed Super Chewer who does best with durable nylon or rubber toys. Yuli's one challenge lies in his leash reactivity. He is working on staying calm and focused in the presence of other dogs, especially when approached suddenly by off-leash pups. When unfamiliar guests first arrive, he can take a little time to settle and may bark excitedly until he feels comfortable. He does best with a calm introduction and a short decompression period before joining the group.
