Story
Howdy folks, I’m an easygoing good-natured big ol’ Boxer mix named Bongo. I’m young, about 1 year old and I weigh 54 lbs. Like many dogs in San Antonio Texas, I was pushed out of a car onto the side of a busy highway in 100-degree weather. I was completely terrified, confused, and thirsty, lying down in the emergency lane when a lady pulled up beside me, opened her door and I got up and jumped in. That nice lady is now my foster mom, so she is helping me get ready to find a forever home. I now have all my vaccines, neutered a few weeks ago, and in between I am having some fun, meeting new people, had my pictures taken, and I'm playing with all the other dogs who live here.
Turns out I’m a pussycat, sweet and gentle, almost motherly with a litter of puppies who live here. My foster mom says I’m a lover, not a fighter and I enjoy snuggling beside her when we relax on the couch watching TV. I make friends with everyone easily, dogs and humans and even a kitty cat who lives here. I know some commands like Sit, Stay, Lay Down, and I love doggy toys. I am very well-behaved, only bark to alert, and I taught myself how to use the doggy door by watching the other dogs. I’m fully housebroken and at night when the doggy door is closed I know how to use a potty pad if I need to go. I walk very nicely on a leash and I don't mind a ride in the car. I’m amazing and ever so grateful to be safe and sound and loved. My future looks bright and I am totally looking forward to meeting the lucky East Coast family who gets to adopt me and make me their forever dog!
