Hello! My name is Crimson, I'm a 3-4 yr old, 40lb Shar Pei/boxer mix. I came to NWTLB from Mexico with a litter of puppies, I was such a good Momma dog that I even took care of two other orphaned pups like they were my own. Since weaning my babies, I've been taking the last few monthes at the rescue for some "Me time". I had a pretty rough start to life on the streets of Mexico, I was malnourished and pretty cut up, as a result, it took me some time to come out of my shell and start to trust the volunteers at the rescue, now I can't get enough of their kisses and cuddles. I do experience separation anxiety when apart from my humans, it also takes me some time to warm up to men. My foster Momma thinks the world of me and we have been working really hard with the help of a trainer to overcome some of my fears, but I will need an adopter who understands how important it is to be committed to continuing my training and who will give me the time to work through some of my issues. In return I promise to give you all my love and plenty of cuddles and kisses.

My ideal adopter is a human who works from home or who has flexibility with their job so they don't leave me alone for long periods of time, I also wouldn't mind a dog friend in the home too as that helps with my anxiety (but I can be a little choosy with my dog friends). I adore hiking and walk beautifully on a leash, I really need someone who is active and will take me with them on hikes and play times where I can explore with my human and build confidence.

update: I’ve been going to doggie daycare and Fiesta Island and get glowing reviews.  I am good with other dogs at the daycare and play nicely.  At fiesta I am learning to swim, I like running with the other dogs after the ball.  I’ve been left up to 4 hours with the other foster dogs and did fine. All I need is lots of exercise and love. 

If you think this sounds like you, please fill out an application for me on NWTLB's website.
